I have searched and searched but not yet found a clear answer anywere.

I thought that I would be able to stream with the setup I have, but I cant stream without feeling it when I game. Its not huge fps drops, but I can clearly feel it when Im playing. I have tried all downscales, using nvenc and x264 in what feels like every imaginable setting with results Im not happy with.

I feel like my cpu isn't enough for it since CS:GO is cpu "heavy".

My current setup :

3570k
GTX970
120GB SSD
620W PSU
8GB of ram.

Now for the question ; to what CPU do I need to upgrade to be able to stream and not notice it ingame (keeping fps above 120 and without stutter).

Would a 4770k be enough? and on what resolution will I be able to stream on with it.

Thanks in ahead.
 
I had the 4770k and it worked flawlessly. I stream 720p60fps.

You may even be able to get by with Faster preset if you overclock it.
