Hi so whats wrong is that i will stream in winddowed fullscreen mode and even though the game itself gets like 270 plus fps at the begining of the game on utra textures and low shaders it feels all laggy

I have changed graphics setting but am pretty sure its not due to that considering the game is 300 fps at start and never goes below 100

other info is windows 7, i7 sandy bridge 3.4 ghz and a radeon 6850 gpu 8gb ram so if anyone knows any way i can fix the choppyness that would be terrific also heres and example video i took this moring of a game so you can see the fps and lag http://www.twitch.tv/kamker/b/320673177

ps this is not me trying to get viewrs on my stream feel free not to watch the example video especially if you know what the problem is... game play starts at one minute and you can see me switch through differnt settings

ty in advanced for any help

My CPU usage is low, like 25 percent when this is happening.

I have the same problem in D3 as Medrea with my 2500k and GTX560. Also, I get stutter at the beginning of SC2 games (although I think this is due to texture loading or something).

Anything you want. Ive tried it all pretty much.

EDIT: If it helps, reducing framerate down 2 or 3 FPS makes my in game framerate even out a lot.

Well I can get 100+ FPS in anything but the moment I stream everything I get huge stuttering. Sometimes even my FPS will read at a really high number as well but I am stuttery all over the place.

Whats even happening? I don't understand.

Ill check my CPU usage while streaming, and everything drops to values BELOW what i run the game at normally. Is this normal?

What software do you use (edit: just checked the video, so XSplit it is)? If XSplit I'm pretty sure I can help you . If you change the stream FPS to 1, does the lag disappear? If so, then it's input lag. There are a couple of possible fixes already mentioned in the thread in my signature revolving around using a different capture method (such as GameSource) or changing the Aero mode to fit your current settings (turn it off for Screen Region).
Free to do whatever I want!

Check to see if it stutters worse before you open a resplendent chest. I was having a similar issue and it turned out to be my hard drive. I ended up replacing it with an ssd and all stuttering is gone.

Why does your stream look incredible and mine look like shit? When i'm working with high settings and bitrate, surely that doesnt make any sense?

It stutters all the time.

EDIT: This happens regardless of in game settings. The only thing that affects the stuttering is framerate of the stream (gets pretty good at about 2 FPS) and my own resolution (800X600 runs pretty good).

Have anyone considered your internet speed? that can cause stuttering even though theres high framerate. Thats often the sinner

20 down/ 10 up. So thats a no go.

I stutter before I even start streaming. This is still at the preview screen.

So internet is irrelevant. Im not even there yet.

try vsync. I used to have the same issue but because of framerate instability. Sometimes I would be above 100 and then when I move the screen, it could drop to 60-70. Those drastic drops is whats making it look laggy.
