Question / Help Quality similar to Steam's broadcasting?

Hey all,

Been using OBS for over a year and love it. Been messing with and testing the Steam broadcasting.
With Steam broadcasting, 720p@30fps and 3000kb/s, it simply looks amazing.

Anyone have any tips to get a similar quality to this? I feel like Twitch and OBS just aren't reaching that same clarity as Steam has. Is there a reason for this? Is it the video player, or something?

I generally Stream @ 3200kb/s, 720p, 30 fps, on "Faster" setting. Sometimes "fast".
But I feel like my twitch streams aren't as good. More grainy, blocky, not as sharp I guess?

Here's just a random example of a highlight of mine: http://www.twitch.tv/drumstix42/c/5685078

*Edit* Also the Steam broadcasting takes very little performance hit. So much that I can stream both Twitch and Steam at the same time, and don't notice a gaming difference (for any game, not just Isaac).

Thanks for any help.
 
steam uses the same basic settings as twitch verfy fast preset the diffrence is steam hasnt got a pay to get priority so
everyone can stream and you dont need to pay for it
steam and obs use about the same cpu usage
the reason you see less cpu impact is you use a harder preset in obs causing your cpu to work more and encode more before it uplands
unless you pay, you aint getting happy fun time with twitch
