Hey guys, I recently finished my exams and have gotten back into streaming CS:GO. I never used to have a problem, having chrome, skype, CS:GO, OBS + Preview, Teeboard and sometimes other programs open while streaming. However, everytime I try to stream CS:GO, it gives me a warning high encode every 5-10 seconds and my stream FPS drops as low as 17 sometimes. My in-game FPS is dramatically reduced to, with it averaging ~130 (I need 144 for my monitor). It used to sit at ~ 250 while using QS. It also causes my game is have small freeze-spikes every minute or so.
When I stream other games like League of Legends, it works perfectly fine. However, the FPS is below 100 (it';s usually above 200 when streaming). The Impact on the CPU seems normal and I haven't made a SINGLE change to either my game OR OBS. When I tried to stream a more intensive game like FFXIV : ARR, my FPS in the game was definitely lowered but even with the game lag, I never had an encoding issue.
Extra: The Audio is out of Sync ONLY when streaming CS:GO.
Extra 2: I also record to my second hard drive, the one that OBS and CSGO are NOT installed to.
Extra3 : I stream at 720p, downscaled from 1080p. I stream at 2500 bitrate @ 60fps.
The first log (11/13) is me streaming LoL with no issues. The second log (11/14) is me streaming CS:GO with the issues.
