Question / Help Insane Lag and FPS Drops

Hello,
I downloaded OBS recently and I have experienced lots of lag and FPS drops while recording. I’ve watched tutorials and I have run the auto-configuration wizard. It is still insanely laggy.
Now I play on an internet connection that works perfect for only gaming (180 FPS) but once I start recording it drops to 50-20.
What may be the problem is that I am playing on a different floor than the router with 5 other devices using it at the same time, but maybe it’s not.

My specs are:
OS: Windows 10 home 64-bit (10.0 Build 18363)
System Manufacturer: LENOVO
System Model: 81XH
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1051OU CPU @ 1.80GHz (8 CPUs), ~2.3GHz
Memory: 16384MB RAM

My OBS Settings are:
Recording:
Type: Standard
Recording format: mp4
Encoder: x264
Rate Control: CBR
Bitrate: 40000
Keyframe Interval: 0
CPU Usage: veryfast

Thank you in advance!

Here are my log files: https://obsproject.com/logs/Uyb8R1RoQyO5sL3l
 
You're encountering severe encoding overload due to using x264 for your encoding of 1080p60.

Unfortunately, your system doesn't have the capability of using NVenc, but you should be able to use QuickSync to take the majority of the load off... I'm just not sure if that would be available to you with your configuration (I'm not all that personally familiar with the integrated vs dedicated graphics issues).
