alright so. i was streaming some dirty bomb gameplay last night for my friend to watch cause he wants the game blah blah blah. anyway i usually get like 120 fps on that game with max settings. right when i started the stream i was getting on average 40 fps but my friend said that the stream wasnt laggy at all. now heres the weird thing. when i TRY to stream with obs and/or xsplit i actually lose no fps but ill go check the stream and itll be laggy/choppy. why is stuff like this and how do i fix it?? if u need specs here they are

intel i3 4160
gtx 960 ssc
8gb 1600mhz ram

What streaming program are you using when it get's choppy on the host side?

Streaming is usually CPU heavy, I expect your CPU cant handle it

Try using Nvidia shadow play.
You can download it or install it from the driver cd from the card.

well heres the thing. i actually use xsplit and obs. i go on youtube and look up what settings to change to fix lag. but then when i start streamnig i get on my phone and go to twitch, look myself up and its really laggy and buffering

Could be your router or modem causing the lag problems.
Some are not very good at uploading and downloading at the same time.
Or it could be that your computer and phone are both wireless and again your wireless router can not handle the upload and download stream at the same time.

It is the least resource hogging, streaming software available at this time. So you will not get the massive frame rate drop you see with the other software you are using.

yeah ur right.. i actually tried it last night. i have good upload speed so i decided to stream at 720p. while the stream was going i went on my phone to check the stream and no lag whatsoever. i went on my phone to check with xsplit and obs as well but those 2 programs make the video very choppy for the audience
