Try these to start:

Settings > Output > Recording > Uncheck Rescale Output

22:18:54.795: Settings changed (outputs)
22:18:54.795: ------------------------------------------------
22:20:09.202: Settings changed (outputs)
22:20:09.202: ------------------------------------------------
22:20:32.163: [jim-nvenc: 'recording_h264'] scaling enabled, falling back to ffmpeg
22:20:32.163: ---------------------------------



After you uncheck the Rescale Output box, test using these settings again. If you're still dropping some frames, switch to the Quality Preset

22:20:32.179: [NVENC encoder: 'recording_h264'] settings:
22:20:32.179: rate_control: CQP
22:20:32.179: bitrate: 0
22:20:32.179: cqp: 15

22:20:42.131: Video stopped, number of skipped frames due to encoding lag: 5/540 (0.9%)

Here's a couple more suggestions:

Set OBS Audio to 48k so it matches your other devices
Settings > Audio

19:29:15.874: audio settings reset:
19:29:15.874: samples per sec: 44100
19:29:15.874: speakers: 2
19:29:17.829: WASAPI: Device 'Speakers (Razer Seiren Elite)' [48000 Hz] initialized
19:29:17.830: [Loaded global audio device]: 'Desktop Audio'
19:29:17.858: WASAPI: Device 'Microphone (Razer Seiren Elite)' [48000 Hz] initialized
19:29:17.859: [Loaded global audio device]: 'Mic/Aux'

Change Color Range from Full to Partial & while you're at it change the Color Space from 601 to 709
Settings > Advanced

19:29:16.299: YUV mode: 601/Full
