Hello OBS users!
I am new to both OBS and streaming, so i would like to ask for a bit of advice.
I know that choosing the right settings in OBS can make your stream run really smooth, but i have no knowledge as to how to do it.
I tried using the OBS Estimator, but the information it gives me doesn't quite work, since my stream is laggy and the quality is poor, that is why i have come to you guys n' girls for help.

I know it is important to supply you with as much information as possible, so here is all the information i believe is nessesary.
I set the server to Stockholm, because i live in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Specs:
  • Motherboard: ASUS B85M-G (GAMING) PCI-E-3.0
  • CPU: 3.2GHz Intel® Core™ i5-4460 Processor
  • GPU: Asus 4GB GTX 980 strix
  • RAM: 8GB HyperX FURY DDR3 Memory
  • Drive: 1000GB, 7200RPM, STA6G, Seagate Barracuda

Too many images, so i'll host them on Imgur.
Click here.

I will also include a log from my last stream :)

Strongly advised to use 720p@30fps, 2000kbps. No custom buffer. This is the 'golden point' for non-partnered streamers, as it's the best tradeoff between resolution, smoothness, and image quality, while still keeping your bitrate to a point where most will be able to watch without buffering constantly.
Settings screenshots aren't needed by the way, all that information is in the logfile.

Also ENABLE Aero, it speeds up Window Captures significantly, and game captures somewhat.

Thank you, i already tried tingeling with it for a while, and i found 2500 bitrate, 60 fps, 720p to be a really good fit :)
