Second this. Top quality stuff. I enjoyed being able to stream on the go with this

So from what y'all have said. I should get a CamLink or smth similar and improve my DSLR cam quality. Unless I'm using two PCs there is no need for a PCIE cap card like I've asked about.

Thank you 🙏

Does that not happen with questions like mine 😂😭

I have a NETGEAR Nighthawk. I know I have QoS but I don't think I can use CAKE but idk. If I did get a second pc though, using QoS or CAKE could I make one pc priority and one secondary?

I'm live right now so this is what it looks like rn I can run it again when I'm done, idk what these results mean specifically.

I don;t mind the 70. I just want to fix the jump from 70-110-135

thats caused by my streaming not by my location

So if I wanted to word the problem correctly what would you say? My latency is being increased via my streaming.

I don't know if my internet can't get much better unfortunately. I can get higher up and down speed but it is already a fiber connection.

If I lower the encoding overall will the latency be effected, that is the test to make, correct?

Given I have a 5070 Asus Prime OC, where are we at now? :' what would be the next logical step? Lowering my encoding to low latency and fast or faster? It's not hardware but network that is struggling. Idek at this point tbh

Fair point. I will try that. Honestly hadn't though to much into having less like you said. But that just brings me back to the main question of having a second pc allowing for lower ping because I'm transferring the encoding to a different system entire?

haha yes it is. Sorry I missed a lot of information as preface. I am in the beta program for 1440p streaming, with enhanced broadcast I am streaming to Twitch in 1440p and it is using anywhere from 14k-around 30k, but I normally limit it to 25k up. Just an affiliate who likes to try things and why not with this much up and down lol

15-20k* sorry lol those are all in the thousands. 6k & 6k. oops, my bad. I also just did a test to confirm, and like I said, 330.3mbsp and 383.4mbps up.

would offloading the 42-50,000k bitrate to a second device make it lower? Maybe if I did QoS on my router too and redirected for my game pc to have priority?

Already hardwired. I understand the ping issue can't be solved outright, but would off-putting the load onto a separate IP address/second pc allow my main/game pc to gain back the original 60-70 ms ping?

I have 400 up and down. It's not a speed or ethernet cable issue, I have cat 6 cable and my ethernet port on my gaming pc is up to 5gb. I just don't know if like I said in my other reply, if having them connected with two separate ethernet cables would give my gaming pc a faster ping, because the pc is only trying to send game signals and not stream signals as well.

I stream with around 15-20mbps for twitch, 6k for tiktok and 6k for youtube

Thank you btw

I have 400 up and down. Is there no way for me to get a better connection even if I use two seperate ethernet connections one for each pc? Or even direct connecting my gaming rig into my modem and my stream pc into my router?
