Question / Help Recent Recorded Videos Lag While Previous Ones Do Not.

I'm getting back into making Youtube Videos and decided to record some gameplay from Overwatch. Once I was done recording I noticed the video was a lot worse in quality compared to previous games I used to record like Dota 2. The settings are exactly the same from before so I don't know why this could be happening? The video is choppy, kinda pixlated as well as blurry. Unlike my other videos which were crisp, and smooth. I will post my computer specs along with my OBS settings.

Would really appreciate help form anyone in how I could fix this. I assume I need to tone down the settings on OBS for these kinds of games?
