[LauraSenora]

Good afternoon,

I'd like some advise on what settings to run on my Omen Laptop to stream to twitch. I know laptop is never ideal but it's all I've got for the moment.
Plese find attached my PC specs and internet speed.

Thank you in advance!!

Laptop can be fine... but use Wired Ethernet not WiFi if at all practical. WiFi can cause all kinds of problem as not desired for jitter sensitive traffic like a livestream (and troubleshooting can get advanced)
Have you tried the auto config wizard and tried a stream? are you specifically looking for 60fps stream (you have the bandwidth)?
When gaming, how is your CPU/GPU/RAM etc resource utilization? Task Manager (Perf tab) and/or Resource Monitor are good tools.
If you game and have resource left over, then OBS should be fine. ON the other hand, if your CPU already running at 80%+ regularly, then your may have a challenge.... sorry... it depends. And how complicated you want your OBS setup can greatly impact hardware demands on PC

MY recommendation would be to use the wizard, try a stream, the upload the log per pinned post regarding asking for assistance. My personal approach is to start simple, with lower settings, then increase until you find a limit, then backoff that a bit to be on the safe side for the unexpected (then rinse, repeat)

Thank you so much for your reply! I'd like to add that I play on console and only use the laptop to stream so CPU is on 20% max at any time.

- Ideally yes I'l like to push 60FPS
I'll give it a go, I appreciate the help!

Thanks
