OBS Studio performance issues in CS:GO at 400 FPS smooth gameplay
Here are your details rephrased:
- Model: Intel Core i5-13600K, Asus GeForce RTX 3080 TUF Gaming (OC Edition)
- Case: NZXT Kraken X53 RGB, ASUS ROG Strix 850W
- GPU: Gigabyte Z790 GAMING X
- Storage: Western Digital SN850X 1TB
- Other: Samsung 1TB SSD, WD_BLACK SN850X drive
- Display: OBS 1080p60 with NVENC, 6000 bitrate
- Issue: Streaming problems only appear when trying to livestream CS:GO
During streaming, everything works perfectly. Problems surface when attempting to stream CS:GO. The game runs smoothly at 400fps, no frame drops occur, and other applications continue without issues.
Tried using "Display Capture" source; only the game lagged. Game played flawlessly with smooth visuals. Used "Game Capture" with -allow_third_party_software command – same result.
Reducing in-game FPS to around 300 helped, but didn’t fully resolve the issue. Lowering to 200 FPS improved slightly, though it didn’t make streaming as seamless as desired.
This suggests the problem might be related to GPU overload, but since CS:GO is CPU-intensive, it’s unlikely. I checked forums but didn’t find a similar case with such powerful hardware. Only one source in OBS lagged.
Any advice or solutions would be greatly appreciated – I’m eager to figure this out.
