I saw a lot of threads on this forum about this problem and a read them all. But none of them helped me. Im trying to fix this problem for days now. If i set the OBS priority high i can barely move my mouse without the lagg. If the priority is on normal the lagg is not that big but i can still feel it. And if the priority is on normal i have frame drops too.

Here are some of my logfiles.
Thanks for the help.
capping frames isn't your issue.
I would definitely avoid settings process priority to high
. leave it at normal since your issue is with your game. leaving defaults can most of the time have
less issues than tinkering with settings that you cannot control the output (I'll go back to you sharing 4 threads...)
Code:
13:53:12: max bitrate: 1800
13:53:12: buffer size: 2000
Custom Buffer and bitrate need to match. this isn't the issue but it could be an issue with stream buffering
Code:
13:55:17: Total frames encoded: 3734, total frames duplicated: 967 (25.90%)
13:55:17: Number of frames skipped due to encoder lag: 876 (23.46%)
13:55:17: encoder thread frame - [100%] [avg time: 11.767 ms]
Here is part of the issue. three things:
Don't use launch options like -high or -threads. these will impede performance when streaming since you only have 4 threads to share with CS:GO and OBS (and any other programs open including browsers)
that leads me to the second issue,
don't watch your own stream while you encode and game. use a popout chat. even with the twitch dashboard paused,
it will still use up CPU and cause the issues you are seeing (micro stutter, high input lag, low fps in game or on stream
Third, the more you have running the worse your performance is going to be.
it is safer to use edge browser and internet explorer than Chrome or Firefox since those use up a lot of CPU (and RAM) for what they actually do. Edge and IE are much more efficient.
Code:
13:09:22: WARNING: Another hook is already present while trying to hook gdi32.dll, hook target is \Device\HarddiskVolume3\Program Files (x86)\Razer\InGameEngine\32bit\RzDspSrv.dll. If you experience crashes, try disabling the other hooking application
Uninstall Raser Synapse Synapse seems to be interfering with the game capture hook for OBS which can exacerbate the issues you are seeing.
Code:
13:53:11: Audio Format: 48000 Hz
audio format must match on ALL audio devices in your system including virtual audio devices (if used). this is something you'd want to set OBS to the format your headset and mic are using.
