My situation is weird and I could use help/feedback regarding the two issues I'm having.
Changed from 1080p monitor to 1440p monitor, made no changes to OBS Studio except what was necessary in scaling stream images but I'm having problems with both color and quality.
Colors: Look washed on stream, though exceedingly more vibrant on my current monitor than my other one, which was already great.
Quality: I'm seeing some pixelation that I was not with current settings using my other monitor, though smooth movement.
Specs:
OBS Settings:
I'm using this as my main monitor, obviously, so don't want to have to switch back to other monitor every time I stream, which would be ridiculous.
Since I'm downscaled to 720p as per usual, with a high bitrate, I don't understand the pixelation issue. It's not horrid, but noticeable compared to before. Movement is smooth, but it's not as clean and I definitely don't understand the issue with color looking a bit "washed out"; i.e. grass doesn't look nearly as green and blood doesn't look nearly as red.
I've streamed for over two years and an "tech savvy", but I'm at a loss here as to why this is happening.
Any feedback greatly appreciated.

Specs:
- Acer 27" 1440p IPS 2560x1440 144Hz
- GTX 1080
- i7-6700K 4.2GHz
- 16GB DDR4
OBS Settings:
- 48fps (division of 144; 72fps not possible without insane bitrate; 144Hz is 144/72/48 in equal division) which I was running on other 1080 monitor w/o a problem
- 1280x720 downscale (again, same as I was previously)
- 2600 Bitrate (which has always been more than enough for 48fps at 720 downscale; tried 2800 with same result)
- CPU preset: faster (same as before)
- DX11, NV12 Color Format, YUV 601 (all "Advanced" settings all on default, as usual)
