Warning coming from that Log file.

"Your gigabit-capable network card is only connecting at 100mbps. This may indicate a bad network cable or outdated router / switch which could be impacting network performance"

Can you check your network connection properties: Check the SPEED

If it's reading 100mbps, then try the following, click on properties > configure > Advanced > Speed & Duplex
if it's set to 100mbps (which I doubt, more than likely it'll be Auto Negotiation) , set to 1.0 Gbps Full Duplex.

Then go back to the above image and check speed. If it now reads 1.0Gbps, retest your stream.
If it STILL reads 100mpbs, check your ethernet cables are CAT5 or above to enable 1.0Gbps connections >

Would that really affect the streams quality though?

100MBits is more than plenty to sustain a bitrate of 6000 (800KB/s upload)

Also, from your example clip, I can't really see any bad quality?
For that many details/effects it holds up pretty decently with a 6000 bitrate on NVENC.
Have you ever compared the quality to other Fortnite Streams?

yeah, other streams get pixelated too, but their screen is kinda more sharpen, idk how to explain it

Well, your example stream is 900p60.

If you downscale, even with the Lanczos filter, it'll be unsharp.

You have to stream 1080p60 when you play at 1080p for the video to be sharp.

Change the refresh rate on your monitor from 144 Hz to 120 Hz and cap your games at 120 FPS.
Use the bicubic downscale filter instead of lanczos because your content is games and not real video. See
