Streaming on YouTube and Twitch simultaneously causes delays.
Streaming on YouTube and Twitch simultaneously causes delays.
I'm facing some issues keeping both Twitch and YouTube running at the same time while muted. When they're active together, performance drops significantly. With your connection speeds—200Mbps down, 35Mbps up, 32GB RAM, GTX1080 and R7 1700—I expect to handle many streams smoothly. Speedtest.net shows normal results, but my Ethernet usage peaks at 20-30Mbps. Could there be a hidden limitation, like Chrome affecting performance? Any advice would be appreciated!
The Chrome extension cache could be at full capacity and it appears to run in two separate windows.
I didn't notice you're using Chrome, though it's worth mentioning that Chrome can shift rendering tasks to the CPU when dealing with large amounts of content. This behavior remains consistent across different systems equipped with graphics cards.
Open chrome://settings in the address bar at the top of Chrome. Or, click the menu button in the upper right corner to select Settings. Move down to the bottom of the page and pick the Advanced link. Scroll further down to discover additional settings. Within the "System" section, find the option labeled "Use hardware acceleration when available" and turn it on. If instructed to restart Chrome, exit any active tabs and launch it again. Once started, refresh chrome://gpu and verify that the phrase "Hardware accelerated" appears beside most items under the "Graphics Feature Status" heading.
Graphics Feature Status Canvas: Hardware acceleration is off
CheckerImaging: Disabled

Google chose to skip GPU acceleration and redirected you to the Chrome flags page at chrome://flags/
