Question / Help OBS Twitch stream choppy

[Danny Innelli]

Hi guys my obs twitch stream is very choppy and I've done a lot of messing around with my settings but can't fix it. Can anyone help? Here is a log file: https://hastebin.com/ixamuhamev

It's choppy because you're overloading your processor AND your video card, not your internet.

how can i fix this?

By switching to NVENC in encoding, you won't use x264 with that CPU

Just do 720p30fps 3000 bitrate with NVENC that's probably best you can do right now

Yes, 4 core 4 threads isn't very good for streaming if you are encoding with the CPU

oh don't worry about it :) Ryzen 1600 is great for streaming + gaming for sure. Personally i got ryzen 1700 and have been really happy with it.

is a 1700 even doable with my specs?
