General DiscussionDrastic fps drops when streaming on high-end laptop - send halp D:

If it's the fact that you're streaming, maybe its the obs that heavy on your laptop? Have you tried purchasing a dedicated capture card?

But 10fps tho D:

I didn't think I needed that since I'm already on OBS

But obs is a software which uses alot of processing power, dedicated capture cards have internal processing power and cache, making them significantly less heavy on the laptop itself

tbh gtx 1060 is not that high end

I don't feel like investing in one tho. Cos this streaming thing is just something I'm doing for fun before uni starts :/

Than you can try lowering the obs bitrate and the dota graphics

Supposedly* high-end oops. It's not a gpu problem tho. 45%-ish gpu usage. My cpu tho - 99% most of the time. Is it supposed to eat up that much cpu processing power :/

Yes it is

Lower the bitrate and downscale the resolution

I did tho. Bitrate at 3500 and reso at 720p. Someone suggested I change to obs classic instead of studio what do you think?

mb try lowering ur graphic settings in dota? this may help
