I recently encountered buffering issues while playing Ark Survival Evolved, especially on Twitch. Despite having plenty of RAM (48 gigs), a powerful GPU (3080), a fast CPU (10700k), and high-speed fiber internet with ample upload/download speeds, the problem persists. I'm using Windows 11. Any suggestions to resolve this?

The GPU would handle video decoding for all YouTube, Twitch, or VOD streams, which means games like Ark will consume more resources, causing buffering. This is based on assumptions rather than formal expertise.

Have you tested in a different browser to check for consistency?

I understand, though it seems confusing that this is occurring right now instead of consistently.

I experience delays when using Twitch during gameplay. Minimal or no performance on YouTube or Primevideo works. Any solutions seem ineffective since the issue persists despite previous attempts.

It's the GPU. I notice Chrome and certain games don't work well together, and I've experienced slower performance and choppy gameplay. Try turning off GPU acceleration in Chrome while gaming to see if it helps. The improvement varies, especially when streaming 4K YouTube on another device.
