turn up your CPU Usage Preset and probably turn down your bitrate

Reduce the resolution you're streaming / recording in. 720p will be fine on most computers; 1080p might be pushing it a bit, don't bother with 4K unless you have a top-tier machine.
Also close everything except OBS and the game. In particular, Firefox is a huge offender for causing lagging while OBS is running. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

i have a chrome tab open with my stream on it, other than that i don't have any other programs running.
streaming at 1280x1024 because that's what my monitor is capable of because i'm poor. should i bump it down to 1280x720? --- Heee~eeey ... Copied to Clipboard!

should i bump it down to 1280x720? yes, thats the next lowest that twitch can output streams at IIRC, unless youre affiliate, you cant stream at 1080 anyway. i dont remember --- Talk about backseat fishing. highpathetic ... Copied to Clipboard!

Checks out then.

alright, i've lowered resolutions, changed it to use my GPU to encode, changed CPU usage.
anything else i might need to work on? --- Heee~eeey ... Copied to Clipboard!

you just right-click the main section of OBS where it's previewing all the video and there's a little toggle for it there. it might not do anything but it has helped ffor me with certain games in the past

alright thanks.
i'm just confused as to why i have no problems streaming Prey, but Skyrim and OBS don't like each other i guess. --- Heee~eeey ... Copied to Clipboard!
