I think your CPU is too weak. 2 Cores for a game and encoding is very stresful. You can try to stream via NVENC. Then your graphic card will encode the stream.

Hi, I streamed through GPU encoder. Here is new logs - https://pastebin.com/wE24uVG1 Thanks for the help

Regardless of your GPU doing the encoding, a dual core processor has to handle both the game, OBS, and in the case of a GPU encoder, the GPU has to handle both the compositing process (putting together each uncompressed frame of video) and the encoding of the video. In addition, things like usb web cams and browser sources will be a CPU hit on their own, plus whatever else you may have running in the background.
