Encoding overload

I'm new to OBS. I'm wanting to only record teaching videos in PowerPoint with OBS with cameos and larger video of myself on them. My voice is sometimes lagging behind the video. IAfter numerous attempts, I noticed 'm getting encoding overload errors. The first few videos I did had terrible resolution for the PowerPoint slides, and I increased the output resolution to correct that. The base resolution is/was at 1920x1080 with aspect ratio of 16:9. I moved the output resolution up to 1920X1080. and I had much better resolution, but then I was having problems with encoding errors. I'm not sure how low I could go on that without the video slides looking so badly. My common FPS is set at 30. In addition to PowerPoint and OBS, I had Firefox and File explorer open during recording, but I can close those two. Not sure if it will be enough to resolve the problem. Downscale filter is on Bicubic, but I'm wondering if it would be better on Lanczos. Here is link for log file: https://obsproject.com/logs/dY5v_w6359JT3w5S
