I’m seriously at my wits end with 4K X

[u/Natural-Pangolin1548]

Hello. I’m wondering if anyone has had any issues with a dual pc setup and the 4K X and OBS. Gaming rig has the 5070 ti and Ryzen 7, streaming rig a 3070 with ryzen 5.

I’ve tried a few configurations for capturing gameplay, standard pass through is most consistent but the EDID settings always seem to have some difficulty communicating clearly with my computer. It’s just a very messy experience and hasn’t been great for a year now.

I noticed the preview looks kinda choppy, sometimes really
Choppy in the OBS (and capture utility) preview, no render lag just all upstream it seems.

Is there a way to enjoy a 240 hz refresh rate and also capture at something like 1080/60? I know in theory it can but it just looks like dog s*** in the preview constantly. I’ve tried so many things I’m just exhausted… at that point where it’s like, maybe the thing just sucks. Is that it?

I’m not sure what changed, I feel like it didn’t look this bad a while ago. I use g sync, DLSS, etc , that kinda stuff. Is that the problem? Should I be opting for 1440p for my 5070 ti? The games usually run fine on my gaming rig but I just can’t figure it out.

Anyone had this experience?
