[Solved] bad fps streaming obs? Try obs studio

[partyboy]

So I basically have tried every obs setting and I have everything to the best performance abilities possible.. I have an i7 4790k gtx 970 16 gb ram pretty good computer to be honest... But when I stream csgo or rust or anything it doesn't feel smooth and doesn't look smooth to me either, and I can feel it effecting my sensitivity. The stream looks fine since it's only 30 fps but I have this constant feeling of like 20-30 fps in-game even tho it says 200-300 fps.

I'm not sure how much this has to do with anything but in my task manager it says my cpu usuage is only 50% and doesn't go over that.. I assume if it's struggling to run the stream and game to it's full potential it would be at 100%.. Is it not using all of the cores or something? What's going on here... (I've been trying to stream with good fps for years now btw and would really like to since I just blew another $500 on a cpu)

Sounds like a setting or something.

What program are you using and what settings?

To stream? I said obs, it wouldn't have to do with that :/ it's like all my cores arent being used or something

I really dont get how an i7-4790k isnt good enough to stream the lowest quality stream

I somehow missed that you are using OBS.

OBS is not a beginner program. It is rather complicated, especially if you do not know what the settings do.

It can indeed be the settings. What are they?

Also, did you update to version 0.15.2? The latest Windows 10 update caused some conflicts with DX9 games. 0.15.2 fixes the issue.

Yeah I've had a lot of people look at my settings before they all say it should be fine, what settings you wanna know exactly, im using quick sync instead of x264 because it improved slightly and im only doing 720p @ 30fps I have over 10mb upload and I updated to the newest version it says version 0.658b dunno what 0.15.2 is

Ah, you're using classic. I recommend using studio instead, since all development is focused on it now.

To me, it just sounds like the DX9 slow down issue, which doesn't appear to be addressed at all with the classic version.

Try Studio out and update the thread with your results. Hope it helps

Have you tried to use Nvidia Shadowplay instead since you have the GTX 970? Should be easier to use then OBS.

While Shadowplay is easier to use... I wouldn't recommend it. Why? It is extremely limited, especially with things like multiple audio sources, and it is part of GeForce Experience (yuck!).

I'm pretty positive that the issue he is experiencing is related to the DX9 slow down bug.

[Bad 💀 Motha]

Using ShadowPlay requires GeForce Experience; something you just don't even want or need at all. And ShadowPlay is like Steam Broadcast; no options, overlays, other audio sources, etc. This is why streamers use apps like OBS Studio or Xsplit.

Yeah guys so seems like obs studio literally fixed everything... I tried studio a little while ago like a few months back once before when I had an i5-4690k and it didn't help at all tho, but now it's basically perfect :) thanks for the help. Weird it fixed it now and not before, either because of a recent update or the i7?

It was 20 days ago, according to the change log.

[Bad 💀 Motha]

Yes old games like HL2, TF2, CSGO use DirectX 9

And for Win10 (or any fresh WinOS) go and grab "DirectX Redist June 2010" package and install that.
