**PLEASE READ** I made a few mistakes or wasn't clear in this video, so I want to clarify and clear up some things! 1. You can stream 1080p 60fps and use a bitrate lower than 6000, but you will have lower quality than other 1080p60fps streams. 2. You can stream with a higher bitrate than Twitch's soft cap 6000, going up to 8000 as the hard cap but I didn't want to confuse people by explaining the tiny quality difference between 6000 and 8000. I still recommend for your own internet speeds to do 6000 if you are only wanting to do 1080p60, plus it gives room for your bitrate to fluctuate up above 6000 but not hit the hard cap. 3. I jumbled my words and called 6000 bitrate the equivalent to 6megabytes, I meant to say megabits but I think most people understood this. I also wasn't clear about Twitch quality options, I called them "encoding options" but the actual process is called Transcoding, but the information works the same! The timecodes are below and if this video helped let me know in the comments!

So i tried to stream dying light 2 using my 3060ti, my game was running at about 55fps, my render lag during the stream was over 30% and my fps was 30fps'ish and very unwatchable. The stream i was at 1080/60, i had it at 6k bitrate and even went up to 12k and didnt help. I also tried cpu as encoder and render lag didnt go down but fps wen up about 20% to about 40ish.

THANK YOU so much!! I've been having trouble with lagged frames for months and couldn't figure it out. This video made everything so simple and combined several ideas I'd tried separately without success. I'm so happy I can start streaming more games!!

I swear Eljay keeps tabs on my streams and posts videos about what I'm going to need!!

So glad!

Your channel is the most helpful tutorial channel from all I've perused. I'm a beginner...you explain things so a beginner can understand. So many content creators forget what they didn't know...you seem to remember.

Watching this as a VTuber and this really helps to see my options because there is almost always a chance that a single game, on top of whatever tracking software I use and the streaming software, is gonna tank the stream, so I've been trying to find the balance and be sure of what I can do to fix it. I've hit a bit of a run around though by just messing with my tracking software or the game, so knowing there are stream options that can possibly alleviate this is wonderful to know about. Thank You so much!

I'm with everyone else, I've just started having these issues. Your videos are a life saver. Thanks man!

Just went through all my settings and I really really hope it helps! I’ve been streaming for a little over a month and I wasn’t dealing with lag or dropped frames much until very recently. I hope everything I’ve done helps!

You’re trully the best stream helper out there. Everybody acts like we all know what those terms means but I had no idea about most of them. Thank you so much! Now I can make my own settings for my own build! 💜

Thanks so much for all your videos. Such a friendly approach, information is always clear and helpful.

Ran into this exact problem and was bugging out on what to do for my stream tonight. Fantastic timing, ty!

Thank you for such in depth info! Fixed all my issues streaming my switch!

Hey man wanted to thank you for the information regarding resolution for affiliates. Been looking for that for months now and couldn’t find an answer to my questions. Quality video brudda. Keep up the great content.

Your videos have been so damn helpful man. Word for word. Decided to start streaming on PS5. And all the el gato settings and OBS settings were confusing as heck. You made it easy for me to understand. Thank you sir 🙌🏽

I honestly can't find a better youtuber that helps as much as you do. Your videos are so easy to understand and are very useful and worth watching. Will always drop a like on them too! Thank you 😎❤

Really important topic, took me a lot of time to figure out how to stream properly (about 6-7 streams) and that answers most of it!

I've been trying to figure out for weeks why my stream is so laggy. I kept trying to stream 1080p60fps. My pc could handle it. Had good internet. Still laggy all the time in stream. Of all the things Id read or watched, none talked about twitch forcing me down to 720p and causing lag when trying to stream 1080 as a new streamer. Dropped to 720p30 and 720p60 and no lag. Its all good. Thank you brother. That fixed my issue, and the rest of the video gave some great tips for setting up to get it even better. Much love, may the gods bless you.

Very helpful, very understandable, and great presentation!

Yo Eljay, have absolutely binged all your videos recently and I just hit affiliate after a week of streaming and got raided for 50 viewers last night so I heavily appreciate all your help. Was hoping you could make a comprehensive guide on how to keep growing past affiliate (emotes, badges, sub/tip/follow goals). Keep it up, and thanks again.

You are so helpful in so many ways , truly appreciate it .

One time you talked about keeping a positive attitude during your stream and I was wondering if you could do a video on how to maintain a positive community/vibe because even that one little clip was really inspiring for me and actually helped the quality of my stream a lot :D

THANK YOU! now I know what I’m doing when I go into my obs settings. My pc isn’t good rn but when I get a new one I won’t screw something up :D

Eljay! I just wanted to thank you for all the great content and advice. I started streaming April 3rd. I hit affiliate 6 days later on April 9th. I am not even kidding. I was very lucky with raids and supported by one of the greatest communities ever in my opinion, the geoguessr community, but I still thought hitting affiliate in less than a week was just absolutely insane. I still watch a ton of these videos and check back to see if I can implement any more pearls of wisdom you have to offer. Next step, Partner!!

Thank you man one of the best informative channels I’ve seen in a while

I was having big time stream relay issues with the video getting uber choppy early on. I configured A LOT of settings and watched a ton of videos on what settings are optimal based on your internet speed and the resolution of your video output. I haven't had many issues since, been pretty darn good actually. I decreased my scaled video output resolution, but kept my native resolution at 1080p. I also started using CBR for streaming (not recording).........that made a HUGE difference!

yeah thats a fix too, less load on the GPU to resize the stream, so changing resoloution eg to 1080 than stream 1080 is better for the gpu rather than 1440 > 1080, that can depend on the types of games your playing too, eg battle royal games will need all resources compared to a basic single player or low gfx games like fall guys

thank you so much!! this fixed all my problems. very informative video!! thank you thank you 😭😭

once again your videos may have helped me. I have been fighting this issue since I got my new graphics card which is nvidia, I always ran amd till now. couldn't figure it out and caused so much stress. I will test out the settings on that twitch page and see if things work correctly. Love your channel.

Great video as always, haven't had too much issues with majority of games I stream. Would love to take a look around the discord to see more tips and tricks!

This made me open my eyes so much to certain things I didn't realize or know about. I'm an average of 3 viewers away from affiliate and CONSTANTLY get 1-3 people to join other Tham my friends watching and then within 60 seconds they're gone. And I figured it was because I'm not good enough or something, and it really could be, but I have my settings way to high for my internet. Though it works for my friends and myself. A lot of people may not be able to watch it. There's more you said too but thanks so much for this video

very informative, it really helped!

Really enjoying these tips, thank you Eljay! Hope to see ya in stream! Also, can you make a vid on how to blur the background of a c922? I love the way that looks on streams and want it for my streams... but can’t find out how to do it.

To gives context I have a 3900x and 5700xt I use medium and I currently use 1080p by 60 fps at 6,000 for bitrate. Again I still have to watch your video.

@@StreamScheme okay I actually got time to watch and it seems like I have the right setup. Is there anything that I'm missing that would help the clarity? I don't have any issues lagging, should I use a higher bitrate like 8,000? I do want to note that I like 1080p just because I like to use the stream footage for youtube so I don't want to use 720p (if that makes sense). Thanks in advance! Could also be a great video idea if you haven't done it already. Edit: Just heard you said Twitch caps it at 6,000 so nevermind for that. Also I'm running about 11 up and 91 down speeds

Technically if you want to get techy, 8000 is the hard cap but 6000 is the soft cap and all you need to get good quality 1080p. Plus with your upload speed it’s better to add some headroom, so 6000 is fine :) And no I believe that just adds a few caps and checks in place, I don’t believe it batters too much at your settings.
