AOE3 core usage and OBS

Currently i'm using my GPU to stream which seems to cause some stutter, however i've been told that due to my CPU being heavily multi-threaded it might be a better idea to use CPU encoding. If i were to do this i feel it would be beneficial to assign certain cores only for AOE3 as to make the game not suffer. So my question is firstly if it's worth switching to CPU encoding and which cores should i assign to aoe3?

Well,
I run both aoe3 and OBS on an entry level PC (i3 8100 and RX460 2GB). Granted that i play in 768p and stream in 720p, i don't have any stuttering problems when i stream. I don't really see any benefit with encoding with the GPU. Any CPU really should be able to handle it. I didn't even assign a specific core.

Well yeah i have quite a nice pc (r7 1700, GTX 980) just want to see if i can get the best quality without stuttering i can get seeing as i have much better internet now.

Yeah definitely go for the CPU. I mean, i don't really know why encoding with a 980 would stutter but i think your CPU should handle it ezpz, bypassing any GPU encoding issue.

It does, Brook thinks i'm a weeb for having it, so it must be. @Cometk Is still the weeb of ESO-C in my eyes though.
