Every time I stream people either say that they don't know how I can play due to low fps (which I don't have , Ingame i have 60fps) or that the stream is lagging.

My specs:
Radeon HD 7770
500GB HDD 7200RPM
8GB RAM
I3 3.3GHz Intel CPU
1920x1080 Monitor

10MB Download speed
1.7MB Upload speed for Amsterdan server in twitch


What settings do I need to change To have a good quality stream and such?

I stream League of Legends

You need to downscale, a lot. Your CPU cannot handle 1080p encoding while gaming. I would go all the way down to 480p using downscaling. Settings>Video>Resolution Downscaling

Damn, Is there nothing I can do to maybe get a bit of better quality?

Not really, your CPU is holding you back quite a bit.

edit: You also need to manually update to the latest version of OBS. 553b accidentally had the auto updater disabled.

The somewhat good news is your motherboard likely supports a better processor, at least i5/i7 Sandy Bridge. You'll have to verify, but even just an i5 2500k will be enough CPU power to stream and play most games at 720p60fps
