OBS Studio requires the following hardware and operating systems to function. Having a compatible system does not guarantee that it is capable of streaming or recording using OBS. The CPU requirements vary considerably depending on the chosen encoder, resolution, FPS and your scene complexity. Try the Tools -> Auto Configuration Wizard in OBS itself to find appropriate settings for your specs.

Hardware Encoders

Streamlabs Obs Mac Requirements Free

Hardware encoders are generally recommended for local recordings, but not streaming. They can be a last resort if software encoding is not possible. They offer minimal performance impact in exchange for a reduction in quality at the same bitrates as software (x264) encoding using the default preset of veryfast. Currently, all consumer-level hardware encoders are provided by certain GPUs, as listed below.

Please make sure to use the latest drivers for your GPU:

  • Intel GPU drivers are usually available from your mainboard manufacturer, but can also be found here

NVIDIA NVENC

NVIDIA GeForce GTX-class GPU with Kepler architecture (GKxx) or newer (starting with some cards of GTX 600 series).
Support for mobile GPUs can exist, but most will not support NVENC. If you get an error when trying to use the NVENC encoder and your drivers are already up to date, your GPU very likely does not support NVENC.

Streamlabs Obs Hardware Requirements

Intel Quick Sync Video (QSV)

Streamlabs

Intel HD Graphics GPU on Intel Core-i-CPU 2xxx (Sandy Bridge) or newer.
Due to low quality of early iterations of QSV, Intel Core-i-CPU 4xxx (Haswell) or newer is recommended.

QSV can be unstable on Windows 7 and may require workarounds to enable it.

AMD Advanced Media Framework (AMF)

Please read the AMF plugin documentation for compatible GPUs as well as the troubleshooting guide for issues.

Update: I contacted Elgato, they responded with questions, I answered those questions, they never responded back. So here's what I did. I started using Game Capture instead, the software was not detecting my microphone.
Today, this morning, I went ahead and purchased a Avermedia 2 Plus. I plugged it in, opened Streamlabs OBS, put source as video capture device for avermedia (yes it detected it even on the box it says windows only but that's not true). I put source for audio input source using IshowU Audio capture, it detected the Avermedia 2 Plus. Guess what? No issues at all. No audio drops, nothing. It worked seamlessly. Moral of the story: DO NOT PURCHASE AN ELGATO FOR MAC. I've owned two Elgato products one had video lag, this one: the same audio issues that no one can solve. Avermedia: no issues and I'm sure it would be the same for other capture devices.
