Dropped Frames/Higher than usual CPU usage

Hello! I'm resorting to this forum as my final hope, praying someone can help me get this situated. I've been streaming for about a year and a half, never any issues with dropped frames OR high CPU usage. I recently upgraded to a brand new PC this past August and it has been running great and still is. This past January, OBS and Windows both rolled out new updates, I did both and I also recently upgraded my internet from 300MB down to 1GB. (My current upload is about 35mb.)

Ever since mid-January now, I've had an EXTREME drop in frames constantly. I'm talking every stream before then had 0 dropped frames the whole stream and now I'm averaging 15% dropped on a good day. I also noticed my CPU usage while streaming has jumped from about 0.7-1.1% to around 3.5-4.0% on average.

I'm currently live and just grabbed the most recent log file in hopes someone could take a look at it that understands better than I do and see if something suspicious is causing this. It would be beyond appreciated.

Your log contains a streaming session with dropped frames. This can only be caused by a failure in your internet connection or your networking hardware. It is not caused by OBS. Follow the troubleshooting steps at: Dropped Frames and General Connection Issues.

The quick fix is to go to Settings, Advanced, Network and Enable Dynamic Bitrate.
