So I just encountered this problem for the first time now. I've been using obs for quite a long time and I kinda know my way around. I stream League and PoE semi-regularly. Anyways onto the issue at hand.
Today I was thinking I would stream some Kingdoms of Amalur : Reckoning. All is well I setup the new scene add my mumbo jumbo and sit across my 2nd screen which is a TV (not monitor) and switch it to main screen via Nvidia settings so my taskbar and desktop shortcuts etc. are on the TV instead of the monitor. I fire up OBS and the game and go into game. I have the obs and my twitch dashboard open in the monitor to sneak a peek every now and then. After a few moments I see that on the lower right on the "fps meter" it was around 30~ even though my ingame frames were well over 60. (or flat 60 cause of v-sync? whatever) The point is it shouldn't stream lower fps than what I was playing at. I wasn't dropping frames or anything, everything was setup just the way I setup for all other games. Then it occured to me that it's the first time I try to stream something from my "slave" screen. I switch it back to my main monitor and do the same thing but opposite sides. Have the game open in monitor and obs/twitch dashboard in TV and BOOM it works perfectly. Just wanted to point that out. Don't know what the deal is and I don't know if there is a fix. If anyone knows what's up please leave a reply. Thanks.
