Question / Help I have a good computer but OBS still lags (Both streaming and local)

Hey so I recently started streaming but I noticed that while I stream, OBS lags.

I thought it was because of my internet connection which isn't really that bad (5mb up) but OBS also lags when I record locally.

The log was too long to post so I uploaded the link to it.

Keep in mind that while I'm recording in-game I still get around 200+ FPS, just when I look back at the video file, it's laggy and stutters a lot.

My computer specs are as follows:

CPU: Intel i7 2600k Quad core overclocked to 4.5 ghz

GPU: GTX 690

RAM: 12 GB Corsair Vengeance

PSU: Corsair AX1200 Gold

HDD: Western Digital Caviar Black 2TB

You changed your x264 preset to 'fast', which is probably causing the problems. I would recommend changing that back to 'veryfast'.

I switched it back to "veryfast" but still no difference. For some reason, now my fps IN GAME is lagging too when I stream...

16:48:02: Using directshow input
16:48:02: Using Monitor Capture

while under winows 7 and aero is active

disable aero and use monitor capture + game capture in two different scenes

or

enable aero and use window capture + game capture also in two different scenes

this will probably change a lot

use as less as possible global sources
