there's one more even advanced way to do this with a dual PC setup, you can eliminate lag completely by using a capturecard on your gaming pc, and have your gaming laptop or desktop connected to it,effectively making it seen in your OBS as a display while it doesnt have any impact on performance as the feed goes through the capture card instead of your GPU, i just then run the software on a seperate window with a greenscreen and now i can also use my gaming laptop to browse the web for songs etc and all the sounds come through the HDMI to my gaming pc, so if youre feeling really extra you could also run discord etc on the laptop too taking even more load of the gaming pc, allowing it to stream and run the game only. while the gamign laptop runs everything else.
Most of those loads aren't too demanding on gaming setups, but I have touched on using OBS NDI as well to do the same thing! Helpful if you need the capture card for a Switch or Playstation/etc

Does tweeking any settings in OBS help frame rate drop?
Sorry for not seeing this sooner! Yes tweaking OBS can help performance as well, such as lowering your encoder details.
