OBS sucking my CPU dry

I've tried every work around to stream at 936p. I am streaming my other PC to this one with an Elgato HD60, and even when I remove the Elgato source, it is still using 80% of my CPU when streaming (idle is 15%-40%). I only have 1 browser source since I use streamelements and 2 video output sources (elgato and webcam). 3 scenes, each one has 1 different browser source.

it might be due to your browser sources. they seem quiete large. try a new szene collection without them and see if it still uses that much cpu.

I removed the browser source but it didn’t improve. I’m thinking the speed of the processor is the problem. It’s powerful but too slow

that is a low power CPU and you encode with x264, this is totally normal and to be expected. Use quicksync
