I would say 540p30 is possible with your CPU on veryfast Preset.

Streaming 720p60 with 2500 Bitrate on NVENC can only cause horrible pixelation due to performance oriented encoding, NVENC will generally look rather pixelated except if you start feeding the encoder with bitrate.

--> The best NVENC Preset should be hqll (High Quality Low Latency)

If you want 720p I would suggest streaming x264 with 720p30 on superfast Preset.

Which setting for CSGO? :)

CSGO is one of the few games that look actually decent even at 540p and since 720p30 on superfast Preset in any shooter will result in rather bad quality I would suggest testing 540p30 for CSGO and also limit your FPS in CSGO to 100
