We need a log, screenshots don't help very much.

Thanks, but neither of those logs show a stream or recording attempt.

Please post a link to a clean log file. To make a clean log file, first restart OBS, then start your stream/recording for ~30 seconds and stop it again. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc. When you're done select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste it here.

Hey, i have managed to get a good record. All i need now is a small stuttering in game fix and all good.Take a look to the newest log

From the log:

18:43:11.096: Output 'adv_file_output': Number of lagged frames due to rendering lag/stalls: 20 (5.8%)

This says that your GPU is overloaded. Make sure you are capping FPS in CS:GO to prevent it from using all of your GPU resources.

I use fps_max 999 which is unlimited,the most that you can get. Should i cap them to 300?

You should cap them at 60 or 144, whichever your monitor's refresh rate is. Anything higher is a waste.

Playing 60fps in cs is unplayable!

Best of luck then. You need to cap FPS at something reasonable to avoid CS:GO maxing out your GPU, or OBS will continue to have issues.
