Hi!

I have a dedicated streaming PC with the following config:

CPU-AMD Ryzen 7 3800X

GPU-RTX 2060

RAM-16 Gb 3133 MHz

MB-MSI B450 Gaming Plus MAX

1x60hz display

What OBS settings should I set in order to have good image quality for 1080p60fps?

Currently with my settings I have a bad image quality as you can see here:

Would use x264 or NVENC (depending on if you could push x264 medium or not).

If you're recording, many people generally recommend CQP/CRF of 18. Unless you have a specific bitrate you want to go for, which if you do, the optimal for a good internet connection is 40-50mbps. If you have a baller upload, then use CQP, and if you are a little constrained, push your CQP higher or limit your bitrate.

NVENC:
Profile: High
B-frames=2
Preset: Quality or Max Quality
keyframe interval: 2 for optimal, 1 for quality, usually no difference
x264:
Profile: High
Tune: none
Quality Preset: Medium or Fast or Faster, depending which one you can push
Keyframe Interval: 2 for optimal, 1 for quality, usually no difference

Video:
Base: 1080p
Output: 1080p
Framerate: 60
Downscale Filter: Bicubic or Lanczos, they are similar enough to be minuscule in difference

Hopefully this is a good starting point. I would not use the Simple output, always use Advanced for more quality options.

Also make sure your Color Space is at 709, because less washed out image. But never use Full, because of over-saturation, unless you like the over-saturation, in which case go ham

(Remember this is just a point of reference.)

I have the following settings on my streaming PC(sorry, I have only SLOBS screenshots, but my OBS settings are exactly the same):
