I get low FPS in almost every game that I stream (20-35 FPS) games such as PubG and FiveM(GTAV). I have messed around with my settings alot but cant seem to fix the issue so im kind of lost at this point and could use some Suggestions. I will post my Settings and PC Specs below. Thank you for the help.

PC SPECS:
GPU: GTX 1070 Ti
CPU: i7 7700k 4.2GHz
Motherboard: MSI Z170-A PRO
RAM: 16GB DDR4

OBS SETTINGS:

Do you have NVENC encoder as an available option? try that, then try High Quality and High profile if its available for you

This seemed to help abit but my FPS seems to be pretty unstable, constantly jumping around between 25-60 FPS while mainly being in the 40-55 range

Our PC's are similar and im experiencing somewhat of a same issue, The issue just started happening for me when I upgraded from OBS Classic to OBS Studio. I think Studio is using my 530 as a default instead of my 1060, still trying to resolve the issue myself.
 
Could you please do a recording/streaming attempt, a few minutes' worth or so in length then stop that recording/streaming attempt then upload the current logfile to assist with further troubleshooting.
 
Looking at your logfile you are enforcing multi-adapter compatibility, which uses system RAM, in your game capture source options (Click on the little cogwheel for the Game Capture source) can you un-check multi-adapter compatibility, direct hooking method is far more efficient to grab frames to record/stream.

As for the error:
01:55:44.588: socket_thread_windows: Received FD_CLOSE, 53223 ms since last send (buffer: 400486 / 404480)
01:55:44.588: socket_thread_windows: Aborting due to FD_CLOSE, error 10053
That is a data send timeout error, possibly modem/router, ISP, your PC network configuration.

Can you go to the link below and test your network bandwidth please:
dslreports.com/speedtest
Here is a link for TCP Optimizer, found below:
https://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php
and below is a YouTube video for a quick and easy way to alter the settings it covers:

(Use the result you got from the dslreports speedtest for your download speed when selecting the bandwidth in TCP Optimizer)
- If you have any concerns in regards to using such software, on the downloads page for TCP Optimizer there are links to guides and documentation. Hopefully it will resolve the above error, if not then you can rule out your PC config.

Can you do another streaming test and upload the logfile associated with that streaming test please, will troubleshoot from there.
