One of the biggest problems you’ll face when streaming PC games is that encoding a stream ready to be sent over the internet in real-time, while playing graphically heavy modern games, is taxing on your CPU.

Your games graphics and gameplay settings are set too highĮach one of these problems can cause your game to lag while streaming.You’re running too many programs in the background.You’re watching the stream on the same computer while you play.CPU or GPU incorrectly selected to encode the stream.Why is My game Lagging when I’m streaming? There are a number of reasons why your game is lagging while you stream. With no clue as to why my game was lagging, and as a strong sense of defeat loomed over me, I decided to start my own investigation. I still couldn’t remove the lag from my game. Why was my game lagging so much while I was streaming?Īfter flipping what seemed like every graphical switch, and fiddled around with OBS so much it wouldn’t even start any more (seriously, I had to reinstall it). And I was probably making things worse, not better…
The other week, when I was streaming on PC in 4k, I noticed that I couldn’t get a stable 60fps.įrustrated, I kept on poking away at the settings in OBS and in game, not really knowing what I was doing or how they were affecting my stream.
