it was stable for a few seconds, then would just disconnect

ok, I threw up a 4k stream

this is having some issues, somewhere

server side or client side

neither, weirdly

OBS seems to look ok

server is definately fine

hmm

mine could actually just be cpu issues

but my stream is buffereing like a motherfucker

ye

i noticed that too

is your obs dropping any frames?

wtf

is encoding overload

no dropped frames

not pinning my CPU

this is an OBS issue

I'd bet money on it

maybe limit of the encoder? try using the nvidia one

I'm just not sure what it wants

ok, maybe

get a second grahics card and use it for encoding

my card is fine

it's CPU constrained anyway

id try the nvidia one but im already killing my gpu

who woulda guessed the pretty graphics game was gpu hell

delay is also still around 18s

I haven't messed with the delay

I mentioned it was network related

I need to think of something clever to split my IP

just lettin u know

right now, I'm running it though a separate box, which sits outside my networks DMZ

which adds stupid delay

ah

ok, this 4k stream has issue even when I'm doing it at 1000kbits

oof and there goes my gpu

oh hey, my gpu drivers crashing gave me my lower clock speeds during idle back

ok, time for pc restart, getting the fun green lines and black dot artifacts

I pulled up my hardware monitors

It's not pinning me, I'm just not getting constant rates

this has to be some OBS bullshit trying to be """effecient"""

ok

well, I'll have to look for an OBS alternative if I want to stream 4k

why does obs need gpu overhead to output efficiently

and not just scale it down

^^

that was my exact quandery

im getting 21fps out because my gpu is pegged at 100%

also my bitrate out tanks while my gpu is overloaded

my GPU graph is just wonky

it'll spike to 100% then go back down to normal

i mean mine is just when im tabbed into game

My card's had a lot of issues over the years, I was entertaining the idea of getting a new card

But I'd just feel dirty getting one of the Super cards

just pop it out and dust it

ive always had a love hate relation with mine

$1100 for a 2080ti is just laughable

its just not quite good enough to run shit in 4k, and its $500 overkill to play in 1080p

$700 for a 2080S is stupid, but it's not like there's anyone to check Nvidea right now

I still think 4K is a meme

4k is only good for rpgs essentially

for gaming at least

Gaming is what I'm talking about also

Windows scaling annoys me, and I feel like no UI is ready for 4K, other than some games

really? i havent had much issues ever with my 4k monitor and programs

but even I'm hardpressed to say most games benefit from it, versus getting an extra billion FPS

"issues" isn't the right word

I just don't find most scaling very elegant

windows scaling is better than it used to be

other than in games, that are built to scale resolution to extremes

that also might be true, I'm not up-to-date on latest Windows anything

the biggest downside of 4k gaming is just you tend to get a lot of input delay because of gpu load and frame buffering

I'm someone who will say 60FPS is enough

But I'll neer say no to the overhead you get at 1080p

that just isn't there at 4k

60fps in the games youd want to play in 4k is enough

the 2080 and the ti should be able to push 60fps with mostly max settings in 4k in most games
