Hey there, so you're at a good spot with decent internet speed. You're planning to stream CS:GO and noticed your frame rate dropping significantly while streaming, even though it stays above 60 fps. Your laptop specs are pretty standard, but you're using the low settings in the game. The CPU is Intel i7 4700HQ, RAM is 8GB, GPU is GTX 860M, and you're running Windows 8.1. It might be that the settings you've chosen for streaming aren't optimized for your hardware. Try adjusting the resolution or bitrate, and see if that helps. Also, check if updating your drivers or switching to a different GPU could improve performance.

What encoder are you employing? It's also a good idea to monitor CPU usage. Streaming will always introduce some delay unless you're using a splitter, just in case.

x264 requires around 50% CPU power during streaming. Streaming EDIT causes it to drop quickly when I switch tabs. It was around the 90s.

You consistently experience a drop in frames per second during streaming, often noticeable even with minor issues.

For maximum performance, use the fast profile. This sacrifices a few frames but maintains quality. Streaming will still be okay as long as the visuals remain acceptable. Around 30 frames per second works well.
