OBS only records a few minutes, choppy and freezes?

Hi! I've attempted to use OBS a few times, and it never really works. A couple minutes ago I recorded around 40 minutes of footage from google chrome (In past experiences I've used steam and origin and had the same issues) and once I completed my recording, I hit "Stop Recording" and it showed up in my destination folder. When I open my videos, it typically only records 2-5 minutes and the video freezes on a frame but you can still hear the audio. The audio is good for the most part but it kind of gets choppy occasionally. I don't use any hot keys or have any set up so I'm not sure what could be causing this...

Here is my log!

Your APU is severely underpowered for this task. Even with the lower resolution, it's struggling to even encode half the frames.

Drop your framerate to 30fps, and try using the superfast or ultrafast presets.

Also, run OBS as admin, and make sure the process priority is set to High in advanced settings.
