Hello there. I've been streaming for some time League of Legends on my laptop and i can't reach the end for my viewers to be satisfied, i have no problems nor lags but i apparently see that OBS shows that i have dropped frames which reflectes on my viewers.
Some samples of the videos can be found: http://www.twitch.tv/shynigami1
Configuration:
Intel B960 2.2 GHZ(2cpus)
4GB Ram
1GB video AMD radeon 7470M
internet is beast( got around 40mb download and upload ).
The game is league of legends, please recommend me some settings which will be satisfying the minimum of viewers. Thanks in advance.

Use this latest test build viewtopic.php?f=5&t=68 and create a new scene with game capture of the game (not the launcher client) if possible and switch to that scene once the game starts for optimal performance.

as for the frame drops change your ingest server from frankfurt to london or amesterdam.
