Change your preset from medium, medium is very taxing, even for 480p.

change it to slow ?
also i dont want 480 i want 720p\

edit :
changed it slow, it looks even worse, more drops more freezes

No, slower preset is more taxing on the CPU. You want it at VeryFast in almost all cases. That's why changing it popped up that big warning box about how you shouldn't change it if you didn't know what you were doing.

I changed it to very fast, and process priorty is on normal
but i still get those Huge freezes all of a sudden even when im outside of the game :(
and quality is pretty bad
i don't get it, are my specs good for even streaming ??

just found out that when OBS is opened i still can get Huge freezes on everything even without broadcasting or testing it

also i dont want 480 i want 720p

720p means 720pixel height so you need a resolution of 1280x720 or 'something'x720

in your settings you are at 480p (720x480)
