Help Req'd..Slow FPS Etc Etc!!
- Thread starter Grout
- Start date
run 3D mark, try some of the games yourself.
Don't run OBS make sure its performing fine first.
Then make sure he's not trying to stream at summing like 1440 or 4k
Got a funny feeling nvidia DSR is on and he's set it to 4k Max settings. Try going in some games and let us know what resolution is used in the options screen. If all else fails use nvidias geforce experience and let it optimise the games.

Thanks to everyone for your help & comments.
ive ran a few tests using, Valley Benchmark. Furmark Graphics, prime 95 together with Core Temp, All results have came back satisfactory.
So further investigation shows it appears to be the Elgato capture HD60 device, When unplugged everything speeds up to what you would expect from this PC set-up.
So now I'm open to suggestions on a work around to prevent the later from happening as he still needs his Elgato capture device.

From what you are describing (this only happens during capture) and because you have a hardware based capture device (I'm not familiar with it but I would guess it puts little load on the cpu or gfx to encode the capture), it suggests it is the disc performance. Even compressed to h264, a 1080 60 GPs stream will be a pretty high bitrate.
I would try/buy a smaller ssd and use for your operating system and the use the one you have for capture.
Another option would be to capture using shadow play. I have never used it myself but I assume it is similar to amd's raptr which produces quite a small file size.
Really the i7 on its own should allow capture using OBS without the hardware device but again, write to a different hdd
As people above have mentioned, terrible advice to buy another gfx card at this stage

As above if recording I.e fraps videos etc u really should record to a separate HDD and defo not use the drive with windows on. Also these days u don't need fancy gadgets for recording use shadow play its very good quality and file size wise.
