Still unsure what's wrong with my OBS...

I posted previously about my constant OBS problems of it not performing like it once used to.

Long story short with that post:
-built new pc
-obs/gaming/streaming runs phenomenal.
-at some point a few months after; OBS performance starts to decline.
-random crashes, freezes, studders, etc
-recently on the 30th it crashed on me but theres no crash report for that.

Attached are some crash reports throughout the first few months of the year and the log file from the stream that crashed on the 30th; if anyone has a solution or the answer, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

1. In Windows, we recommend that "Game Mode" be enabled. Game Mode can be enabled via the Windows "Settings" app, under Gaming > Game Mode.
2. Audio buffering hit the maximum value. This can be an indicator of very high system load and may affect stream latency or cause individual audio sources to stop working. Keep an eye on CPU usage especially, and close background programs if needed. Occasionally, this can be caused by incorrect device timestamps. Restart OBS to reset buffering.

Source affected (potential cause): sgfsd afsd
3. Update to the newest available version (currently 32.1.1)
4. Update to the newest available version of the NVIDIA studio driver (currently 595.79)
 
Somebody definitely screwed up with this update. I ran 3 games so far after installing the new version and every single game has performance issues. Two of them using UE have problems loading textures and geometry properly and another has significant frame drops making all of these games unplayable. This was also not being live but simply having OBS open at the same time as these games.

I’ve heard yes and no about having game mode on while streaming but I can test it again. All background programs are typically closed. I’ll look at everything you recommended. I’m always hesitant to update nvidia drivers and obs because something always always breaks with one or the other.

Thank you for the informative response.

yeah I’m still on the fence wether it’s an obs issue or windows 11 issue.

Has to be OBS. I'm using Windows 10 and never had this kind of issue before. One of the games is also something I've streamed before (the original Steam version of Yakuza 0 - not the new director's cut) and I don't recall having a single issue when I did.
 
Has to be OBS?? OP has a bad source, tons of SE errors, appears that the system is running out of resources. Yep it has to be an OBS issue.

Get rid of the bad source to start, qhobbs already pointed it out.

If it's not OBS then how do you explain me streaming Yakuza 0 no problem last year for maybe 5 hours and then coming back to it a few days ago and having massive frame drops just from having the app open after updating?
