Ok here is my setup I'm looking for advice on where to start with what I'm rocking. I've watched over 25 videos and spent hours on the forums.

Pc
ryzen 5 2600
Radeon 570 i believe it is my first pc and will be upgrading components in the next few weeks.
2 displays
Main philips 75 in 4k 60 hz tv
Secondary gaming monitor small 1080p I think 120 hz

Mic
Hyperx

Webcam
Elgato facecam

I plan on streaming games like rust, dayz, cod, ark survival ascended and arma reforger.
My first stream last night I set my settings to what a video recommended and tbh still have no clue what it all means.
I ran the setup wizard and the pictures attached are what it recommends.
Can anyone please point me in the right direction of going through and tweaking all of my settings.
I'm having two issues I would like to resolve. I streamed rust last night thought it was all fine, I went back to watch the video and it was laggyish, choppy and blurry. Like if I spun in a circle the stream would spin slower and be blurrier than what I saw. I think I had my bitrate at 6k and didn't scale down to 720. Both were 1080p.
My second issue I got setup to stream ark today and got this wierd thing happening. When I was clicked off of the game, onto my second monitor that I don't play on my display was full screen. As soon as I would click and start playing. The recording would go to say 75 % percent of my canvas and wouldnt fill it ( switched to rust to check and it stayed full screen) Picture also attached.
I also tried to click transform and reset transform and literally nothing happened.

I'm exhausted and looking for help from someone who can get my base settings set up and guide me. I'm hardwired and interent is relatively great.
I'm looking for input output, scaling selector bilinearal etc, bitrate, encoder, x264 or whatever and other settings in advanced all the way through.
I just want something clean and crisp and as close to matching as what I record as possible. Im fine with streaming in 720 I guess. I understand this pc isn't great at all.
Thank you so much to anyone who read this and can help
