How's it going. I fairly new to the PC world and have only been doing this for a couple of months so bear with me please. I have been using the same settings from the very beginning and have never had a problem until now. (got them of YouTube and it's work ever since)

I've always had 60fps and my CPU% barely ever moved with these settings. I don't stream I only record for my YouTube channel. Anyway I took a break for about a week and when i hopped on my computer there was an update so i updated it and i don't know if that is what caused this or not but now whenever i go to use obs with the same settings I've had this whole time...my frames drop ridiculously low and my CPU% starts fluctuating? My mixer doesn't work either, it used to right when I loaded obs but now they are just empty there is no audio signal but when i click on properties it starts working again but when i close out of properties it stops working........Also when I updated my PC my background colors to my PC were black like when you open file explorer instead of it usually being white it's black so idk if that is a sign of something wrong too...

Games I normally run: Rainbow Six Siege, Battlefield 5, COD, Dead by Daylight and many more on my channel (never have a problem...til now)

I have no idea what I am doing. been looking around for answers until i decided to see if you could help. Hopefully this makes sense.
