So let's start
I have a core of Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-5600U CPU @ 2.60Ghz
I have a Graphics card or GPU of Intel(R) Hd Graphics 5500
And my wifi connection is very very strong like 500 Mbps and 50 upload
So I want to know that on which should I run the encoder on? *264 or the graphics card
And on the core encoder I run at 60 Mbps in the game it lags a lot and I have lowered the game quality to the lowest can you recommend me some settings for obs so my game and recording/stream can run very smooth?
Note: Please reply fast cause I am a youtube and I need to upload every day
Thank you,
Chillz

Understand WiFi will NEVER be as stable/reliable as a wired Ethernet connection.. so beware, especially with higher bitrates
you wrote 60 Mbps.. I'm guessing you meant 60 fps?

see pinned post about posting your OBS log
Realize you have an older CPU, and lower end GPU and trying to do something that takes a lot of hardware resources to pull off (video encoding)... so game play which already can tax a PC, then add video encoding for streaming on top of it.... be realistic
Also, learn to use Task Manager/Resource Monitor to keep an eye on resource utilization , and you are most likely going to need to optimize OBS to have a stable stream

Without your logs, I'd start with
1. use Ethernet vs WiFi to make sure that isn't impacting you
2. Drop to 720p 30fps and get stream working... then increase settings from there
Hopefully you will search this forum on that GPU and recommendation, or someone else will reply... I don't know what to recommend... I tried to use a gaming laptop with similar generation CPU and better GPU (OBS not optimized) and not gaming, super low CPU usage, and a USB webcam... completely overloaded computer and stream would not work... Could I get it to work now, probably, but happy I got a new PC instead and can focus on content vs trying to optimize tweak OBS for lowest possible resource utilization
though counter point is that folks on this forum have streamed with much lower-end systems... so it depends

I didn't provide more help because we don't have your log, the most important aspect of my reply. And you still didn't post your log. If you don't post a log, then I, and possibly others will skip this thread. I realize English not likely your first language... but if you want help, please follow direction - I repeat (last time) Please post a log with your issue! Here's how...
