Pixelated Text When Recording

I've tried everything I can think of and have followed and tried just about every thread I could find over the past several days.

The problem: When I record and there is movement on the screen texts suddenly becomes pixelated around the edges.

When I record via Elgato Game Capture the results are very smooth (sorry for the audio): https://streamable.com/4orpo4

When I record with obs I get this pixelation: https://streamable.com/dl0h6b

So I set out to find how to make them match.

The setup: Besides the log I attached, I am recording from one PC to another via an elgato HD60. I have done around 100 little tests, nothing seems to make the difference. I've made sure the elgato settings match, I've tried various bit rates from crazy (100K) to normal, messed with various rate controls, experiment with downscaling filters (thought my resolutions match so I didn't think it would be this) and experimented with x264. Nothing seems to fix the pixelation when moving. Anyone have any ideas? I've tried to find what doesn't match between the two programs and the big one I find is the encoder is listed as:

Is this the same thing as NVIC?

At this point I have tried everything I have found or can think of. Anyone got a solution to this or perhaps a workaround? I use OBS for its much better audio features. Thankyou for any ideas you have!
