I'm trying to stream pubg at 720p 30fps but I am only getting around 20fps dropping some frames. The stream looks pixilated and choppy at times. I have attached a recent log file.

any help would be appreciated cheers.

21:32:34.686: Output 'adv_stream': Number of lagged frames due to rendering lag/stalls: 2265 (19.9%)
You're overloading the video card

you are asking for trouble by streaming over wireless, your connection is not stable. change to wired one

Mandratory checklist:
1. 60hz desktop refresh
2. 60 or 30 in obs
3. 60 in game if there is switch for it (like bf3, bf4, overwatch)
4. enable vsync in game
5. run obs as admin
6. enable high performance mode in windows power options
7. On Win10 disable game mode, game bar and game DVR https://i.imgur.com/7CVH7c5.png
8. make sure your gpu can do stable 60fps in game without being maxed. OBS needs some of gpu resources as well. If you enabled vsync@60 and its still maxed lower resolution and/or details.
(replace with 59,94 and 29,97 for 59,94 display like hdmi tv)
with 144hz monitor its fastest and most reliable to sacrifice 144 and follow 1,2,3,4
9. Install Afterburner (or pure RTSS+HW Info) to monitor cpu/gpu load and start experimenting with tuning resolution / fps / x264 preset. GPU/CPU load should not exceed 85-90%

thank you very much for the help, I am now going to run through these steps now.

once question, could you explain what you mean when you say 'run obs as admin'?

I have turned vsync on and my game is running at 60fps. Should I run my stream at 720p at 30fps?

yes this is good start, 60fps will require more cpu and bitrate. its up to you to measure what your pc can pull off ->point 9
check my calculator for bitrates

could anyone help me with what obs settings I should be running?
