Hello.
I recently switched to OBS and it works great in alot of games, but in FPS games, CS:GO in this case, it starts off great but then when i really start moving and playing it drops alot of frames (In-Game i still have up to 300fps i'm talking about the stream).

Is this a problem with my settings? is there anything i need to do? please help me!

This is how the stream looks:

(It might not be the best quality when it comes to resolution if you set it to fullscreen (first off it's 720p not 1080p but also it got a little messed up when downloaded and uploaded to youtube), but the fps is the thing to focus on and that is still accurate to what i have on twitch.)

Log file is not showing an actual recording/stream.
So I can't see, if your CPU or your GPU is overloaded.

If the problem only occurs in high motion, it might be the CPU that can not handle the resolution+framerate+x264 preset.

More motion = more encoding work.

Ok. Is the log file not showing a stream becuase i did it wrong? sry dont know alot about these things.

If you look at my PC specs and my OBS settings shouldn't it be able to handle it?

If the CPU can handle it, depends on x264 settings.
Just do a test recording again. After you are done, stop the recording and then upload the log file.
You need to cap your ingame FPS, if you want smooth video footage. Without any fps cap, you will run into a bottleneck (CPU or GPU...it depends).

I simply capped my ingame FPS to 120, and voila!
