Question / Help Several issues when streaming.

These issues weren't really present when I first started out, but they've become more prominent as I went on. I'll name them one by one.

Issue number 1: Every 30-40 (on average) my stream will go down, and it then it does the auto-reconnect. I'm not sure why it's doing this. It seems to just take a dip every so often, but sometimes, it doesn't recover from said dip, and the stream goes down. My bitrate is currently at 1450, and I stream 720p, at 30FPS. There isn't any issues during the actual stream, according to my viewers. But outta no where when I least expect it, it goes down.

Issue number 2: OBS preview during stream is really laggy/choppy. During streaming, I have both OBS, and my actual stream on my 2nd monitor so I can see chat. Both the OBS preview, and the stream for myself is very choppy, but again, according to my viewers, it's perfectly fine. BUT.. when I alt+tab out of the game I'm playing, the preview becomes smooth again all of a sudden, but as soon as I tab back in, it becomes choppy once again. Like a slideshow!

Issue number 3: My mic will mute itself at random times during streaming. I'm at a loss on this one as well. It's very inconsistent. Sometimes it mutes itself every 3-4 minutes, sometimes it does it every hour. No reason. It just mutes itself, and sometimes I won't notice for several minutes at a time, and I end up just talking to myself for a long period of time. This is the most frustrating of all. I use an Audio-Technica AT-2020 USB mic.

These are the most annoying issues that I can't find the answer for anywhere. I'll leave a couple of log files of my latest stream if it helps;
