Question / Help Nicely Powered PC Having Issues pls help

[Duckybeard]

Let me note by stating I have no issue what my problem is. I used to stream frequently on a less powered PC and have had better results.

PC Specs

CPU: Intel i7 - 3930K @ 4.4GHz
RAM: 16GB
GPU: Nvidia GTX 970

I've included a log file here. Also screens of all my settings and internet speed. Also I was told that if you are not partnered with twitch that you should be around 2000kbps.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Ducky

What exactly is your problem as there are no indications of any issues in your log apart from the odd rendering lag (0.2%) so probably nothing you'd notice. You have your cpu preset set to Fast which is a change from the default do you know why you changed that? If you have a past broadcast that shows the problem then that would be great.

Hi Adrian,

That's the funny thing is I can't pin point it, It looks insanely blurry and super choppy. I'll link a quick game of Overwatch in a couple minutes. Also I changed the CPU preset to fast as that's what I used to use with the original OBS as well as xsplit.

Here is a link to a stream I just recorded. Just a quick round of Overwatch.

I've got to say that looks OK to me at my end. 720p 30 in 2000 for this kind of game is to be honest pushing it I think because there is so much going on but it was smooth no pixelisation even in the fights with a lot of stuff going on.

 

[Duckybeard]

Yeah, it's weird. That's the best I've seen my stream look in the couple weeks I've been trying to trouble shoot it. I really wish I could get it a bit clearer like some of my favorite streamers. A lot of them which I have better specs.

Your only real options are to increase the cpu-preset even more but that takes up so much CPU. Try increasing the bitrate up a little bit as well, I'm running at 2500 and it seems OK but then I don't have many viewers to complain :-)

 

[Duckybeard]

Yeah, I don't have much viewer count. I could easily spare some CPU. I might try that.

Thanks for the help.
