I can stream HoN and LoL at 720p while streaming even at 3.8, however WoW has a noticeable slowdown, and forget about First Person Shooters.
I might be able to help you there, you are streaming with FMLE as in Flash Media Live Encoder, which version? I like FMLE, you actually have control over your stream when using it, but I think it wastes way too much resources.
What program are you using to capture video from the games?
