Question / Help Footage skips frames/freezes/slows down with dual PC NDI setup

My problem is rather simple, my gaming PC sends obs capture over NDI to my streaming PC, in there it encodes it for stream or recording purposes, my frames do not drop on either PC according to OBS, my cpu usage gets high but is never pinned at 99% on my streaming PC, and the connection between the two PC's is 1 Gigabit. I like to run my games at rather high framerates I.E. 144+ due to my monitors refresh rate, video capture a lot of the time is fine, but during intense scenes, such as lots of moving of the camera in a shooters or for some reason, diving out of the battle bus in fortnite in the beginning of a game, causing that video to grind to a halt, generally if i pause the game for a couple of seconds, it catches back up and recording resumes as normal again. My Gaming PC is usually bottlenecked by the CPU in most games due to my liking of running things with low graphics to get to a high framerate, I cap my framerate at 180 in fortnite, if I leave it uncapped, it can reach into the 200+, and the footage just freezes and skips horribly. I would appreciate input into my problem, I could also obtain footage of this issue if you need it

Edit 1: Just realized how much of a mess my Streaming PC's Log File is, here it is upon freshly opening OBS: https://gist.github.com/fe874f5c0cebf9452331f2d72b4465ae
