PLEASE HELP ME D':
Basically, I get HUGE FPS drops when livestreaming. The game I'm livestreaming, Osu!, is in no way a heavy game either. I typically get a solid 120 FPS, but when I livestream, I get around 15. I have already tried MANY things to fix it with no changes. I remember livestreaming CS:GO about 5 months ago with no problems like this, just slight fps drops. I don't quite remember if I had windows 7 or windows 10 back then, but I did change to windows 10 eventually, and I was wondering if that might be the cause.
(The Important shtuff)
GPU: R9 290
CPU: FX 8350
RAM: 8gb
OS: Windows 10
I've streamed 2300 and all the way down to 800 bitrate with no improvement.
I've streamed at 1080, 720, and 480 with no improvement.
I have CBR enabled of course.
I've changed servers. No improvement.
Streamed at 30 and 60 FPS. No improvement.
Looked at CPU/GPU usage, nothing crazy whatsoever.
And a bunch of other stuff I don't remember trying, but if anyone can recommend something, please do.

Uninstall raptr (aka gaming evolved). every time you upgrade your GPU drivers you will have to uncheck it or it will reinstall.

set fps to 30
set base resolution to 1920x1080 then downscale to 480p.
Can I re-install it? Because last time I deleted it, my computer had problems with random crashes.

uninstalling should make it more stable. extra hooks in games can cause performance issues and crashes. raptr does this. I would leave it uninstalled.
