Hello, I have a duel PC setup and cannot fix my lag when playing cs:go. I also streamed only from gaming PC and lag still was there. Internet upload seems to be fine at ~9mbps and ive tried many different settings.

Any help is appreciated

When someone doesn't answer your question you can always check out Toms Hardware, its more of a general site for general discussions. So you might actually find your answer without having to go here. I do recommend it, but its just my opinion.

my ping spikes
Hello,
See if you have background processes running. Are you running internet from Wifi or Ethernet? (Always use Ethernet for gaming) Lastly monitor your CPU and RAM Usages while playing. Check what program is using the most Memory and CPU and see if you really need it open. I would say your specs are fine for your gaming side, the memory can see a bit of a boost but 8 Gigs should run no problem.

Ive been testing this with process explorer and I couldn't find anything that would be a problem. If I stop streaming the spikes dont happen. I am using ethernet and have 16GB of ram in both machines. Is there any other programs you recommend for CPU and ram monitoring? I still think its something with the network causing the stuttering / spikes.
