Question / Help Choppy using OBS but not when using Elgato Software?

[thebaconbarm]

Hey there,
I've run into a bit of a problem that i can't seem to figure out.
I can stream/record 720p60fps and 1080p60fps easily with the Elgato Software at about 50-80% cpu usage.
Yet if I have OBS try streaming with the Elgato as a global source even as 360p30fps, 480p30fps it's choppy as hell and is running at a ridiculous 98-100% CPU :/
Now I don't have a great computer but it does the job I need it to just fine, I'm not playing the games on this computer, I record my ps3 and another computer that I play the game on. So this is pretty much a 2 system setup.

Any info would be fantastic. Thanks guys.
Ps. Not mentioned audio because I know of the issue and will fix that as soon as the video is fixed :)
Here's some footage of it, http://www.twitch.tv/thebaconbarm/c/2511987

Also here's the log.

Any ideas would be awesome folks :D

Some of your hardware is really out-of-date, I think that could be part of the issue, but I couldn't say for sure. That "Preprocess" part of the profiler is really telling of this sort of thing.
