Hello, guys, is it normal that my i5-7400, Gtx 1060 3gb, 8gb ram setup does not manage to run Fortnite on minimal settings and stream at 720p 30fps? It is just getting so laggy
 
No, it's not normal, but it's not directly related to your computer specs either!
You may have a virus/malware infection, or an internet connectivity problem.
I'd suggest you run scans with kaspersky's virus removal tool & malware bytes:

https://www.malwarebytes.com/
Also, if you're not living on your own, it's possible this whole thing is related to the internet activity of another house member (I.E maybe they're downloading torrents in excess or something, which slows down the connection to a crawl) so ask around if needed. It's also possible your WIFI has been breached (better change your WIFI password from your router's web interface, just to be on the safe side, and only use WPA2 as the encryption type).
Other than that, you should also run a speedtest on this site:

And see if you're getting the speeds you're paying for.
 
Hello, I have a OK internet speed, 50-80 down and 15-20 up. there were found some treats by malwarebytes that I deleted, but what is not normal is that even on nvenc my cpu is 100% and my gpu is about 40% loaded
 

Fortnite will use only as much CPU as needed when vsynced but all your CPU when not vsynced,lock the game to 60 FPS or whatever you want,that way it will use very little CPU.
Recording with nvenc works well enough,as long as you use high priority on nvenc,CPU recording doesn't work well because the game spazzes out if anything else is running,and no this has nothing to do with core count.

 
my intel chipset is up to date, I checked it through intel rapid, i dont understand how to update bios, my video card is also up to date. Anyone want to help me through discord? My discord is Brendy#3292. I dont understand what is happening with my pc
 
MERGED QUESTION
Question from alexnitro2005 : "My pc isn't giving me the power that it has too."





There are also problems with Fortnite servers. Your not the only one that has entered this problem in the past few days.
 


But this is happening since i bought the pc in March 2018, not last few days
 


Ok, sorry. I heard that my pc has to manage it, and i dont have the money to buy a new video card or 8 gb ram. Maybe there are problems with Fortnite because it eats about 7 gb of my ram without stream?
