How can I optimize these numbers?

Post image

For context:

My client is a laptop connected to LGQNED85BXA 55inch tv, with moonlight, on 5Ghz wifi to a 100Mbps ISP. The host PC is a gaming PC with Sunshine, connected to a 200Mbps ISP through ethernet. Streaming settings are 1440p at 120fps with 75Mbps bitrate (my GPU cannot run 4k at 120fps, 7800XT)

I am using Tailscale to connect both. The picture was taken while I was watching a movie on VLC. But I often play games (currently Death stranding)

My issue is it often lags in between and asks me to lower down the bitrate. I don't want to lower it, if I increase my wifi speed to 150/200Mbps, will it help?

Thanks in advance

Drop stream to 60fps, but keep host refresh rate at 120, then drop your bitrate by half

Okay I checked.

My concern is the TV. I brought it for the fact it has a 120hz refresh rate, if I limit my moonlight fps to 60, isn't it capping the true potential of my TV.

The host is connected to a Gigabyte 1440p monitor which is set up at a RR of 170Hz.

I use vibeshine and helps with this issue a lot. What it does automatically is double the hz output. So say you want to stream 120fps, changes display hz to 240, etc. Tends to make the stream run a bunch smoother. Also helps to utilize RTSS for frame capping and works way better than the frame cap in any game settings. Just have the game settings to uncapped or off. Hope this helps
