Laggy gameplay while recording [Please Help]

So I'm completely new to OBS, and to using any recording software in general.

I've recently gotten a new pc, and I'm finally able to record my gameplay, as before I was on a 10 year old computer that could barely run games while I wasn't recording. Anyways, I've gotten around to recording a few games, and it's been great. However, I've had one issue throughout all of them.

Once I start recording, looking around in a game becomes choppy, making it extremely hard to aim. After I finish recording though, and I check the video, it comes out completely smooth and without the choppiness.

Is there anything I can do to eliminate this problem when I record?

Oh, and in case it may be of any help. my specs (copied from the site I bought from):
Intel Core i5-9400f 2. 9GHz 6-Core | Intel B360 Chipset | 8GB DDR4 | 240GB SSD | 1TB HDD | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 6GB Video Card

If anyone could help me out with this, I'd be super appreciative!
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
