This is really great for people who are completely new to streaming, would have helped me about a year ago so much T_T :D To give people some "specific" help I've taken screenshots of MY personal settings to help give some benchmarks of what you can do with your stuff. I have a Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz LGA 1155 95W exactly as noted above - however mine is OC'ed to 4.6ghz. For this CPU and streaming I HIGHLY recommend OC'ing if you'd like above high quality - of course BE SAFE when doing this! >.> For whatever reason, the CPU can record any local recording without OC regardless of the game or quality, but needs to be OC'ed greatly to get good streaming results - from my experience, again. I have a GTX 560 OC and for less important information I have 8gigs of ram COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 Plus for i5 and i7s and a MSI P67A-G45 motherboard A pretty cheap setup now and days... runs about ~800$/1000 but look below for my results For my xsplit settings I have them set to this(I'm only using this because my upload at schools is incredibly high, see last screenshot for luls.) Prior to increasing all of xsplits settings I used 7 quality/2900 bitrate and the quality was still incredibly high. As noted above you don't really need the quality turned all the way up, prior to my current setup xsplit would not work properly if it was above 8 quality. >.> + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/Ksz45.png) 1920x1080 Resolution ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/d3rEV.png) | ||

You also might consider a bit about DXtory as it requires less from the computer and you can stream all games with it. Screen region can't. It will only stream (borderless) windowed mode. Link to channel for proof. | ||

Wonder if my Phenom II X4 3.5Ghz will be able to handle a 720p stream? (Rest of specs 8GB 1333Mhz RAM, GTX460, 100/100Mbit line) | ||

I do not concur. I had a friend who had a X4. but was not able to stream at 720P. This is due to the amount of threats I guess. The overclock will help the get you above 480P, but I dont think he'll be able to stream at 720P | ||

You gave random value for each setting and information on devices that nobody uses (almost nobody probably). This helps a small percentage of streamers in my opinion. | ||

Changing the preset speed as mentioned to something a bit slower than the default is definitely also worth exploring if you have a decent PC and limited bandwidth. | ||

The AMD X6 and FX-8XXX series is always cheaper (in the netherlands), but indeed an 2500K is faster and I would recommend a 2500K now, but he should note though that these are also useable to stream, so people wont have to buy a whole new PC when they want to stream... | ||

i5 2500k, 8gb ram etc etc... Any ideas? Tried all the way from 1300kbps to 2000kbps and none of them should cause this lag, right? And this is my test on speedtest.net ![[image loading]](http://www.speedtest.net/result/1757832659.png) | ||
