Question / Help Getting Lagspikes when Streaming

Hey,

I've been streaming WoW for some time and have recently moved to another guild, so went from streaming 10man raids to 25man raids which will ofcourse decrease my framerate although I am now getting lagspikes when streaming randomly, roughly about 15+ after a 4 hour stream session.

Now I have no Idea why I'm getting these when my computer and internet are more than capable, is this OBS?

Comp Specs:

i7-4770k
GTX 780
16GB RAM

Internet:

8 Up
60 Down

Log from a while back, can try get a recent one if needed:

That is not a complete log, but I can tell that you were probably dropping a lot of frames. If you think you shouldn't be getting so many dropped frames, check out this thread: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=8870

Another thing: don't stream at 1080p60. It's a bad idea for many reasons. For one, Flash is terrible and playing back 1080p60 video, and anyone without a high-end computer will have a lot of trouble watching it. Furthermore, 3000kbps is much too low to make most content look decent at 1080p60...event he Twitch-prescribed maximum of 3500kbps is too low. And you're streaming WoW, which is one of the worst games out there for low-bit rate streaming, due to its high-motion nature.
