Use Tools / Auto Config. You should not be using bitrate for recording in the first place.

99.9% of YouTube "best settings" guides are complete crap being parroted by people who don't know what they're doing.

It's at the top of the main OBS window. File, View, Profile, Scene Collection, Tools. Topmost option should be Auto-Configuration Wizard.

Also, never record directly to mp4. It's not a recording-safe format. If ANYTHING goes wrong during recording or finalization, the entire recording will be unrecoverably corrupted. On top of that, video editors tend to not like the mp4 files OBS creates directly anyway. Record to MKV and use the 'remux recordings' option under the File menu to convert them after the recording is completed.
