Question / Help FPS dropping during streaming

So, my last issue miraculously fixed itself, no idea how, but I suppose downloading another game with easy anti-cheat managed to let me game capture properly. But now, I'm running into another issue.

Now I've tried everything at this point: Changing settings in OBS (30 FPS, high performance setting in my NVENC encoder, 3000 - 4000 bitrate etc.), tweaked everything I can with my PC performance wise, checked for malware/viruses etc. you name it, I've done it. It's only started very recently. I run a Windows 7 machine and I used to be able to stream fine without any drop in frames or connection.

Streaming is absolutely fine and quality is perfect, just in game it drops frames and occasionally freezes my game (no crashing). I've tested my games without any OBS software running (Like SL OBS, OBS studio and XSplit) and games run perfectly at 60 FPS with no drops.

Can anyone help me with this issue?
 
Can anyone help? I've checked all threads regarding this before I posted and they didn't help. My connection etc. is absolutely fine.
 
Can I get some sort of answer here please? Preferably in more than one sentence.

I've capped frames in game and also disabled overlays etc. (aside from Steam which shouldn't matter). If it helps, I have a GTX 980 graphics card which is up-to-date driver wise.
