Remember, your settings should be focused entirely on making the best possible viewing experience for your audience, so don’t be afraid to sacrifice a few bells and whistles to produce a better overall stream. It’s by no means a 1080p stream running at 60 frames per second with crystal-clear video 100% of the time, but it’s also reliable, balanced, and above all watchable! This gives me the balance I need to game and stream on the same PC. Look-ahead: On Psycho Visual Tuning: On GPU: 0 Max B-frames: 2 Keyframe Interval: 2 Preset: Quality Profile: High These are the settings I use.Įncoder: NVENC Rate Control: CBR Bitrate: 4000 Kbps I also play a lot of fast-paced shooters like Call of Duty: Warzone and Fortnite.

My GPU is an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Super with 6 GB, my CPU is an Intel i7–9700K 3 Ghz, and my internet has 200 Mbps download and 11 Mbps upload. Keep in mind that the bitrate is one of the most important things to set to have a good quality. you should be very good if you set it up like that, even tho you can always tweak it a little more.

There’s a lot to absorb here, so let’s work with a real-world example of how I setup my OBS. those are the official recommended encoding settings by twitch.
