Specs:
Asus Rogstrix X470-f Gaming
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070

Recently been having issues with dropped frames due to rendering lag
I updated from a previous Ryzen 7 3700X
I have updated plugins I could find that were degraded or needed updates
I ran the optimizer inside of OBS for Streaming
I am a bit at a loss

Your log doesn't contain an encoding session.

Plugins are a plenty & at least Aver Media is stale, look at the log. Probably more of them, plugins should be checked & updated if needed.

Rendering Lag is GPU overload. Load reduction is required, see link.

Your Scene Collection is suspect, it's large & no doubt sucking resources. Try creating a new Scene Collection, add (1) Source & test, see if there's any improvement.

 
30 third party plugins....
Bitdefender...
20 filters for the Yeti Mic...
Duplicated compressor filter in various sources.
Multiple game capture on the same scene.

Your scene collection is a complete mess. You should clean it.
Try this. Remove all the plugins but the ones you really need (3 to 5 plugins max). Create a new scene collection and select it. Add a few sources. Restart OBS in Safe mode (help menu). Test as is. Now restart OBS normally and test.
Change to your actual scene collection (after clean it) and test it.

After each test (start, do as you normally do, stop) upload the current log file (again, help menu). Copy the URLs to post in here.
 
I appreciate it, a lot of the filters are turned off in multiple sources so I figured if they are off they dont cause issues just existing right?

I have been paring down a lot more but I will work on it more in depth this week.

Appreciate the help
 
1. The Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling ("HAGS") feature in Windows is currently known to cause performance and capture issues with OBS, games and overlay tools. We recommend disabling it via these instructions as a troubleshooting step. Be sure to restart after disabling it.
2. Two of your audio devices has a sample rate that doesn't match the rest. This can result in audio drift over time or sound distortion. Check your audio devices in Windows settings (both Playback and Recording) and ensure the Default Format (under Advanced) is consistent. 48000 Hz is recommended.
OBS Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
Microphone (Voicemod Virtual Audio Device (WDM)): 48000 Hz
CABLE Output (VB-Audio Virtual Cable): 48000 Hz
CABLE-A Output (VB-Audio Cable A): 48000 Hz
CABLE-D Output (VB-Audio Cable D): 44100 Hz
HDMI/Line In (Live Gamer EXTREME 3): 48000 Hz
CABLE-C Output (VB-Audio Cable C): 44100 Hz
[VIRTUAL_AUDIO_DEVICE_PROCESS_LOOPBACK]: 48000 Hz
3. Update OBS to 32.1.2 or newest available version.
4. Browser hardware acceleration is currently disabled. Enabling acceleration is highly recommended due to the improvements to performance and significantly lower CPU usage for browser sources and docks. This can be enabled in Settings -> Advanced.
5. Multiple Game Capture sources are usually not needed, and can sometimes interfere with each other ((BM) FoM Gameplay, (BM) Gaming FS, Gaming FS, Gaming FS 2, Gaming FS 3 VERT, (BM) FoM Chat, (BM) Fullscreengame, (BM) CozyRoom and Greenscreen 2). You can use the same Game Capture for all your games. If you change games often, try out the hotkey mode, which lets you press a key to select your active game. If you play games in fullscreen, use 'Capture any fullscreen application' mode.
5. Make sure all 30 of your plugins are compatible with OBS 32.1.2.
