Hey Guys.

Im finally able to stream in a decent quality with the shadowplay support, as my cpu is kinda old (Q6600@3,6) its a nice feature to have for me and as i´m streaming on hitbox and they wont restrict me as much as twitch does...ya..quality is really nice on 4k bitrate 8k buffer and with VBR. no lags on stream for my vivers, they enjoy the quality aswell... i like


but one thing i kinda dislike for now.

sure i am able to stream games like bioshock infinite now, games i could not streamed before but, as streaming overlays and webcams dont use the nvenc codec this is kinda ...weird.

only gamecapture = 2% cpu load. add my webcam and it jumps back on 12-15% load.
is there anyway to fix this?

cause for me its kinda bad to lower my cpu load..to rise it up again...

thx for that

That's most likely due to your webcam, not OBS or NVENC. Try lowering the webcam's resolution.
