Question / Help OBS Studio causing in game lag

When ever I try to play a game with studio open, the game is constantly choppy. As soon as I close studio, the game resumes to running smoothly. Its with all games, not just one. I previously thought it had something to do with NVIDIA, because every time I would optimize the game, it would go back to running smoothly, however this latest time, that didnt even work. Is anyone having the same issue and/or does anyone know how to fix the problem?

*(Added) Actually, it seems to be making the entire computer lag, like chrome and such.

There aren't any streaming/recording attempts in this log file. Restart OBS, then start your stream/recording for a few minutes and stop it again. When you're done select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste it here.

Looks like you uploaded the log before you stopped streaming. The last line is

19:09:05.413: ==== Streaming Start ===============================================

Overwatch I can normally keep around 120-150 FPS. Im not using vsync or frame rate limiter. If I remember right, I get the same FPS, but its just stutters. I think I have found a easy fix atleast to Overwatch, by going to fullscreen and then switching back to borderless window. I tried GTA today and seemed to be having the same issues as well.
