Question / Help GTA San Andreas lags with OBS 22.0.2 open using Windows 10

Whenever I have OBS open, GTA San Andreas Multiplayer (SAMP) goes to 14 FPS, it is naturally capped at 90 FPS which is a number I easily get, however it becomes unplayable with OBS open.
I used to be able to use OBS to record the game a while back, but I switched to Shadowplay which I no longer use.

I read that it's after the creators update that this happens, and that 22.0.1 should've fixed it, or 22.0.2 but I can't seem to get it to work properly. Supposedly it's 32bit directx 9 games that work poorly with OBS.

Is there anyway to be able to use OBS to record again?

I can provide logs, worthy mention is I've disabled ALOT of things in my windows, caused an issue with webcam not working, so perhaps that could be an issue.
