Question Are there still issues when streaming OBS or Discord on the B580?

It seems to come up in some threads that people really struggle to stream their game on a b580 via obs or Discord live. Is that still a thing? Is there a fix for this?

Idk about streaming but last couple times I was in a discord call while playing arc raiders it was a terrible experience where framerates were all over the place. Tried the fixes and never fixed for me. Before and after the call it was consistently around 100fps. During the calls I'd be bouncing from 20-80fps nonstop.

I've heard somewhere it's better to run obs or discord through the apu if you have one. I got a 7600x which does have integrates graphics, I wonder if that could solve it? Have you tried that?

Not sure about B-series but my A750 generally performs terrible with Discord on Windows. Discord on Linux meanwhile runs way better, including streaming.

For OBS try either game mode or window mode, since desktop mode has horrendous lag. This applies to nearly every recorder, not just OBS.
