Question / Help UNUSABLE RECORDINGS FROM BAD QUALITY

I've been playing Gears of War 4 since its early release on the 7th and trying to record/stream for twitch and youtube. Each time I would try to stream it would drop 99% of the frames and be useless. And whenever I record gameplay and try to edit then upload it, the quality has taken a huge hit from what I'm playing the game on. All my settings for the game are Ultra and it plays 70-140 FPS usually. But the recordings have poor color and pixelated frames allover the image.

I've tried tinkering with settings, which helped my recordings at first, because they would freeze after a few minutes and the recording would be unplayable. I fixed that, but the quality is awful. Each file takes anywhere from a day to two days to upload from size, but the quality of the recording doesn't match.

I spent awhile going through some forums looking at other settings suggestions to try it at, and only managed to cause the recordings to freeze again. What's more; when the recording does freeze I have to close OBS to do anything else because the "Stopping Recording" button won't go away.

I'm including a log from my most recent recording so somebody can figure out what I've done wrong. I've been increasing all the settings at the cost of CPU so I can get better quality but I keep getting even worse quality
I'll also include a link to the videos uploaded onto Youtube so far so you can see the quality sucks. First one is the playlist; you can see each video got progressively worse quality as I tinkered with settings. Second one is the video from yesterdays recording. I don't think I can upload todays.. It's just so bad, you can't see a damn thing.

P.S. I'm really bad at technical computer jargon. What I need are very basic instructions for how to stream without dropped frames and record high quality without massive files
