Question / Help Losing frames in Overwatch

My frames in Overwatch while not streaming are around 70-90 fps. When I stream my frames are dropping below 60 and sometimes down to 30. What am I doing wrong?
My settings in studio are currently:
Downscale to 720
Frame rate: 45
264
2500 kb/s

See build specs below:

I7-4790
Gtx 970
16 gb of ram
Around 4mb upload speed
Running two monitors

Please help!

Thank you!

Maybe fixed value of 45 fps in the game is the best solution (if monitor is 45Hz then vsync enabled and game 45 fps too)?

144hz monitor and I would rather run higher fps than 45 in game. I was just trying to be nice to my CPU with the 45 cap in obs. It only climbs to 20% of CPU max. Should I match in game fps with what obs settings is?

22:55:16.511: Output 'simple_stream': Number of dropped frames due to insufficient bandwidth/connection stalls: 2831 (4.6%)

Most likely losing frames because you don't have a good connection/bandwidth? Problem with ISP maybe?
