CS:Go Using Alot of Memory and Lagging When Streaming

[CastJustin]

So I recently updated to Windows 10 and now when I play Counter Strike my memory jumps up to about 900mb. It runs fine by itself but when I try to stream it lags really bad. I stream with obs and have everything up to date. Also when I start streaming the memory usage jumps to about 1100mb. Not sure what to do. It didnt do this when I first upgraded to 10 and had just recently started doing this. My PC specs are:

CPU: Intel i7 4770K
Motherboard: MSI Z87-GD65 Gaming
RAM: 8GB Corsair Vengeance 1600
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 760 4GB
Cooling: Corsair H80i
PSU: Corsair RM750 750W

Hi, yeah.

Downgrade back to Windows 7, Windows 10 is full of bugs and driver compatability issues, it's not a surprise that it is causing you problems. Windows 10 destroyed my comptuer, gave it some blue screens for a couple of weeks then fried the motherboard! Yeah... really!

See if this fixes your issue anyway though.

Hope I helped!

Ive tried reinstalling 8 from disc but for some reason it wont let me. Any help on what I can do to get 8 back?

Morning,

What exactly is it saying? Is it hanging on install screen? Is there an error code?

850mb is perfectly normal for CSGO. I get around the same. The lag/stuttering I'm not too sure about.

Oh sorry, I mis-read.

See if you can verify the cache of the game in steam and post back the results here.

Ofcourse, this could be normal since CS:GO does require a lot of cpu power.

Many thanks,

I have friends who play and say theirs runs at about 350mb. not sure why im getting so much.

850mb is perfectly normal for CSGO. I get around the same. The lag/stuttering I'm not too sure about.

I re-verified it and it still does the same. Do you think it could possibly have something to do with my stream settings?

Morning,

It most likely has something to do with your graphics settings in the game, try lowering your resolution along with other graphics setting in game such as the AA and texture settings etc.

Post back results here,

Many thanks,

Lowered all the settings and did everything i could think of and its still doing it. Not sure whats up, guess no streaming for me.

Morning,

Are you using a HDD or and SSD?

If you are running a HDD run a disk defrag

If you are running an SSD, type the following command in cmd (as admin)

fsutil behavior query DisableDeleteNotify

Post back results thereafter,

Many Thanks,
