So I had 2x2gb sticks on my motherboard and added a 4gb and my computer recognizes it. However when i go to stream it all of a sudden skips frames. I used to run OBS at 60fps but not I can only manage to run it at 20fps without it dropping frames and freezing. I thought if anything It would be more reliable and constant but now its completely impossible to stream more than 20fps. None of the game settings or OBS settings have been changed.

I have never disabled Aero and am using game capture. Heres my log. I have streamed with all these settings less than a week ago fine.

My word. I'm not sure how it was working before, but that GPU is terrible for streaming. It is extremely slow, with very slow VRAM. And your CPU isn't fast enough to encode at 1080p60, either. Your frame times are way too high to encode at the settings you're trying to encode at.

I recommend downscaling to 480p and dropping to 30fps, and then maybe your frame times might start getting under control.

You're using the 32bit version of OBS, by the way, so you can't even take advantage of your new RAM. Just an FYI. System RAM doesn't really affect encoding speeds in any remarkable way.
