You should avoid using monitor capture whenever possible. Either play black ops 2 in borderless window mode and use window capture (my personal recommendation) or try using Game Capture. If you have issues with Game Capture using version 472b, try out the latest test version, 473b test 11.

edit: for derpness

im not using monitor capture im recording my desktop and playing in borderless windowed

That is monitor capture. You should use Software Capture>Window Capture and only select the Black Ops 2 window. Leave Aero enabled when you use Window Capture.

Also i had the same problem.

I used Game capture and still sometimes had unstable fps. Sometimes it would drop from 40 to 35 and would cause lag for the viewer. It was solved as soon as i turned off Multithread Optimization in Extended Settings

What's your hardware setup look like? You aren't the first person to claim turning off Multithread Optimization helps alleviate some issues, but there's no real reason this should help.

waht would be better game capture or window capture?

There should be little to no performance difference, I just recommend using Window Capture when you can. It's less invasive and less prone to issues.
