Warning Old Version (25.0.0)
You are running an old version of OBS Studio (25.0.0). Please update to version 30.2.3 by going to Help -> Check for updates in OBS or by downloading the latest installer from the downloads page and running it.
Warning Mismatched Refresh Rates
The version of Windows you are running has a limitation which causes performance issues in hardware accelerated applications (such as games) if multiple monitors with different refresh rates are present. Your system's monitors have 2 different refresh rates, so you are affected by this limitation.

To fix this issue, we recommend updating to the Windows 10 May 2020 Update. Follow these instructions if you're not sure how to update.

S24F350 (1): 59Hz
X213H (2): 60Hz
Warning Windows 10 1909 (EOL)
You are running Windows 10 1909, which has not been supported by Microsoft since May 2021. We recommend updating to the latest Windows release to ensure continued security, functionality, and compatibility.
Info Insufficient Hardware
Your system is below minimum specs for OBS to run and is too underpowered to livestream using software encoding. Livestreams and recordings may run more smoothly if you are using a hardware encoder like QuickSync, NVENC or AMF (via Settings -> Output).
Info Windows Game Mode
In Windows 10 versions 1809 and newer, we recommend that "Game Mode" be enabled for maximum gaming performance. Game Mode can be enabled via the Windows 10 "Settings" app, under Gaming > Game Mode.
