Poor FPS in game while streaming
I have been recently streaming and I have set my stream onto all the best settings for my internet speed and the right resolution etc.
Here is my speed test results (speedtest.net):
While I stream people say that the stream is really smooth and gameplay looks fine however in game for me I get a terrible FPS! Usually on Medium settings (In Minecraft) I get around 20-70 FPS however I see a MASSIVE drop when streaming which is around 10-30 FPS!?!? Can someone please help me and try and see what I can do to solve this?
P.S I use OBS to stream to Twitch.tv

Streaming can be very resource intensive on your computer. Your frame rate will absolutely be affected by streaming, though it might not be too noticeable when you get dropped frames depending on your computer's hardware and which software you are using.Do you lose fps when streaming?
Laggy livestreams are usually caused by one of two things: you're either having a problem with your internet connection or you're overloading your computer. When possible, you should be streaming using a wired connection. Plug that ethernet cable directly from your modem to your computer.Fix Game Crashing or Low In Game FPS While Using Stream Labs OBS
