Very High Power usage while streming

Hi, while streaming Space Marine 2 on Twitch the "Electric Consumpion" of OBS goes very high. (Also with Dragon's Dogma 2) And destroy the stream. Already lowered the graphic for the game, don't solve the problem. (Can play at ultra without OBS)
Preset already on low quality, (as OBS message suggested), same issue.

My PC spec
CPU: Intel Core i9 10900K @ 3.70GHz
RAM: 16,0GB Dual-Channel
Motherboard: Micro-Star International Co. Ltd. MPG Z490 GAMING PLUS (MS-7C75) (U3E1)
GPU:ASUS MG279 (2560x1440@144Hz) 4095MB NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 (MSI)
Running on a SSD

Any suggestion? Thanks.

Took a look at your logs, 1 & 3 are worthless but 2 looks ugly. There's sample rate mis-matches that need to be corrected. Lots of Rendering lag too, your GPU is overloaded along with some dropped frames & encoding lag. Audio is lagging too, looks like the entire system may be overloaded. Avast may be causing issues too & one of the logs had SE/Java Script errors, check the bottom of the Encoding Performance page for more info on them.

Never had problem with Java and Avast before. Yes, I had also audio lag while streaming SM2 after like 20min of smooth gaming.
Sample rate mis-matches?
I tried something with the setting and run SM2 while recording on OBS for like 10 min, no problem (but are only 10 min) I'll attach the log

I have 850w power source, maybe it's not enough?!

You need to reduce load, plain & simple. Run your monitor @ 60 or 120HZ. Reduce game quality, cap frame-rates, remove java script errors, ect.

OBS was @ 44k in the first 3 logs. Fixed in last log but the log ends when you started recording.

Game quality already reduced, framerate capped. Don't know about Java script error and how to remove it.

The outpur resolution in video can be also an issue?

Maybe this is the correct one

There's no rendering lag, it looks good now but no streaming just a recording. Try these for your recording.

I breezed right over this one, better update it. I already checked Nvidia broadcast, that's good but double check any other plugins'.

FYI, the java script errors are your alerts. (browser source). Webcam audio (also 44k), not being used but buffering?

Followed some changes, also rest the java scrip via cmd. "regsvr32 jscript.dll"

Don't know what this is and what it means: [obs-backgroundremoval] Failed to open config file C:\Users\GamingRig\AppData\Roaming\obs-studio/plugin_config/obs-backgroundremoval/config.ini

My only browse source are linked to streamlabs for the alert. With some image/gif. Default sound.

The audio of my webcam is diabled on OBS, and also in general.


Edit: Removed all the gif from streamlabs, for sub bits etc. Only one it's follower, wich is a pic and an audio I made, no linked to some browser.

A plugin you installed. Yep, it's in the log. Errors are errors, fix them, remove them or leave them, just be aware that they can be wasting resources.

I use nvidia broadcast for the webcam and back ground removal. Even if I don't use it nothing change.

I know, but I don't know the errors. Where are they? I can't fix/remove something I don't even know where to look at.

Maybe I have not enough knoledge of the topic, but I have no Idea what this means: [obs-backgroundremoval] Failed to open config file C:\Users\GamingRig\AppData\Roaming\obs-studio/plugin_config/obs-backgroundremoval/config.ini

Not clear. And no idea of what to do.

That is/was the location of the configuration file.

Most plugins install & are removed the same as any other app. Check All Settings > Apps

Release notes for v1.1.13.

We've fixed the potential lags and discrepancy between image and mask, and upgraded the ONNXRuntime to 1.17.1 - better performance and robustness!

I don't use them. I've tried them and then discarded. Why OBS try to open them? There aren't on my filter setting.

Not sure.

They're Just release notes for Background Removal plugin v1.1.13. I thought you were using the plugin since it was installed but evidently that's not the case. If I'm not using a plugin on my set-up anymore, it's removed.

I've removed them from the folder now. And that's done.

What other problems? How do I resolve them?

No rendering or encoding lag in that last log but you only recorded, no streaming. Did you address the dropped frames? A link to the stream connection troubleshooting guide was provided above,

I have no idea how to adress the dropped frames problem. That's why I'm here. The guide don't help at all, becouse I have no idea what the problem is, that's why I ask here.

Your LAN looks OK, you're using ethernet connected @ 1G, nothing to see here. Your problems appear to be between you & the CDN. Perhaps not enough bandwidth to support the stream to start or something else in the path.
