So yesterday I was streaming with my normal settings which I usually stream at, and everything was fine like normal. Then all of sudden obs was taking over 100 percent of my CPU process speed. I was shocked, my computer started lagging like crazy in game and I eventually crashed all together. Like completely frozen unable to move everything, had to cold boot the computer. So obviously I am doing something wrong in my settings so I am going to go cold turkey, start again from the beginning and ask all of you educated streamers what I should set my obs settings at. Here are my specs:
1) Internet Speed
2) WALL OF DXDIAG INC!
