Hey,

I recently started streaming on twitch; https://www.twitch.tv/smurkie/videos/all <-- see the stuttering in my videos here.
I could really use some advice on how I could simply maximize having fluent frame rates as I have no idea how to fix it.
I don't care so much about having perfect quality of image but having things run smoothly is my preference.
Here to answer any additional questions/info if required <3 thank you in advance.

There's no recording attempt in your log, but I guess your CPU isn't powerful enough to encode 1280x720 at 60 fps. Try lowering to 30 fps and post a logfile with a recording attempt a few minutes long.

Stop the streaming before uploading the log. It's incomplete. Important are the statistics from the end of the streaming session. And don't paste the log into the forum, use the OBS-internal upload mechanism and post only the link to the log.
