Hello guys I just have a couple of questions and i hope you guys can help me out.
I tried streaming yesterday using the built in origin to twitch streaming service and my frames dropped insanely and made the game not playable.

I was streaming highest quality 720p
BF4 setting medium.
I'm trying to stream BF4 or another games i get.

My internet speed is 200Mb down /100-200Mb up

i5 4.0GHZ
16 GB ram
SSD and HDD games are installed in HDD
gtx 770 4GB
2 monitors hooked up.

What do you guys recommend?

You could use a second PC or get a processor with more cores/threads. I use a 3930K and run BF4 multi-player and broadcast from the same machine with zero performance issues.

Another thing to try is not using Origin, but rather some of the other broadcast software offerings out there. BF4 is buggy. The battlelog browser upgrade software is buggy. I think origin is buggy, so why trust the broadcast to their software. Try some of the broadcast software products they recommend on Twitch and you may have some better luck.
