Over a year ago I used to stream my races on Twitch, and they were pretty decent quality streams. I stopped streaming though, due to internet connection issues that got to the point where I figured streaming wasn't worth it. I upgrade my internet a while back and have since not had the internet connection issues that I had before, but for some reason my streams are choppy now, dropping about 65% of the frames. I've tried everything except for running OBS on a separate computer since I don't have a second computer. What doesn't make sense to me is that my computer has been completely upgraded since the time I last streamed a race. My previous build had an AMD FX-8350 processor, 8GB of DDR3 RAM, and a GeForce GTX 970 graphics card. Now I'm running a Ryzen 7 3700X, 16GB of DDR4 RAM, and a GeForce RTX 3060 ti. My computer doesn't have a lot of stuff on it, so I can't think of anything that may be running in the background causing an issue. My computer is literally used for iRacing, remote access to my work computer, or painting cars on photoshop, nothing else. I don't play other games, or have any other games installed. Anywho, the reason for this post is I'm wondering if anyone has similar equipment and could share what they use to stream or their output and video settings in hopes that maybe I can figure out what is causing my choppy streams. I know of some people with older tech that stream fine, so I don't know what my issue is.
