Photoshop delay response with livestreams

~Alumx Dec 30, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Okay I'm planning to fix one problem.

I'm sure that anyone who tried streaming digital art experienced some delay when drawing, and this gets specially annoying for me when I combine both Photoshop (CS6) and a Livestream Procaster (low res 600 x 338p 248kbps)

The difference is pretty dramatic, forcing me to draw a lot more slower in order to get smooth lines.
(Note that Im having pretty high end custom PC,

-intel i7 2600K 3.40GHz
-16GB DDR3
-64bit windows 7
-AMD Radeon HD 7700 Series 1GB DDR5
-Asus P8H67-M Sandy Bridge

k now getting to the point.

I think the reason of the delay is my hard drive, its 1TB SATA III desktop hard drive, the slow data transfer rate may be the cause of lag, If I get an SSD hard drive (whose are around 5x faster) It should get better I guess.

My question is if anyone of you guys who are using SSD, experience some kind of delay when drawing
Need to know if it worth upgrading my computer.

Thanks for your attention

for me the major problem is that when Photoshop uses graphics card, it slows down drastically the stream, I need better graphics card :I

Hello Vasyl. I have been experiencing some Photoshop Lag. Have you tried removing it from using the Video card? Sometimes it kept me from drawing because of it. To disable it go to photoshop > Edit > Preferences > Performance > Untick (Use Graphics Processor. It helped me quite alot so check it out
