2019 16" MBP CPU burning up when streaming {PS4 - Elgato HD60 S+}

Hey folks,
Thank you for taking a second to look. I'll be as detailed as possible. Log file provided of last test stream to Twitch.

In my attempts to stream to Twitch via OBS, my CPU cranks to around 80%, sometimes 90% (via Stream Deck CPU monitor) - OBS always reads about half of that. For instance, Stream Deck XL says CPU is 70%, then OBS says 35%. This all happens within the first 3 minutes of starting a test stream. Additionally, latency w/ the webcam gets crazy out of hand. The whole overall stream turns to garbage within minutes. I am having a hard time digesting that this computer cannot process this stream, especially since I have a decent capture card. I have a fair understanding of GPU / CPU and such but this doesn't makes sense. This computer slays any minimum requirement requested by OBS, Elgato, Twitch, etc. I have tried too many configs to count, and they're all treating my comp like I'm mining mother bitcoin. lol.

Here's what I'm working with:

• Nov 2019 16" MBP - 2.4 GHz 8-Core i9 - 32 GB -AMD Radeon Pro 5500M 8GB - Catalina 10.15.6
• 23.5" LG Ultrafine Monitor (for Mac)
• PS4 through Elgato HD60 S+ (plus)
• Focusrite 2i2 interface w/ Shure SM7B microphone
• Corsiar Elgato Stream Deck XL
• Logictech C922 Webcam

Here are my current settings:

I have the same specs macbook and massive sound problems Since the last update to 10.15.6 I’m thinking about a downgrade to an older version of Catalina it is before Catalina

Are you still able to stream without the comp hitting like 80-90% of CPU usage?

CPU is not the problem (max.10% usage) since day one (I´ve bought this MacBook 2 months ago) it starts heating up as fuck when I start OBS but I was able to stream without problems on the 10.15.5 Catalina. Now everythings fucked up since the last update. Like I said, massive sound glitches after 5-10min of streaming
