Software alone isn't always the solution, recording is extremely hardware intensive, and it's possible your computer isn't up to it.
I doubt you can record at 60FPS, 30 should be possible, but 1080p might not be for your computer.

here's a guide to setup OBS for local recordings, start at the recommended crf 15, and lower the number for higher quality and higher file size recordings, or raise it for slightly lower quality and smaller file sizes.

Recording is EXTREMELY heavy on your CPU, RAM and HDD. If you're playing a game that is heavy on any of those (like say ARMA) then you won't be able to record.
You'll have to adjust ALOT of game settings to find the right balance.
Having only 1 hard drive will also be a serious downer because writing a video file is a lot of work and doesn't leave the hard drive much room to breath for reading new data.

Your computer is perfectly fine for playing games, but recording gameplay is an entirely different story, there's no easy "just run this program" solution, you'll have to work to find the right settings to record each individual game as they all interact with the computer differently.

Like my computer recorded every game just fine until I tried to record The Division, and i found out I couldn't record it an FPS higher than 30, even though all my other games recorded perfectly fine at 60.

Thank you sir what can i further upgrade in my pc like going to 16gigs of ram can slightly solve my problem and i forgot to mention in post that i use 2 hdd one is 1tb and other one 500gb and i have left 200gb for recording ...

and thank you for help sir........

16 gigs can help alot.
If you have a hard drive dedicated to recording, i.e. one you're not playing the game off of, that also helps a lot.
If you have both those, than your limiting factor would be your CPU, which, has a lot of downsides, it could be the recording software and games are both trying to use the same cores and that's causing a conflict. You can try to assign them their own separate cores so the load is more balanced: http://www.windowscentral.com/assign-specific-processor-cores-apps-windows-10(you'd have to redo the assignments everytime you restart your computer with this method, but it tests whether it helps or not)
If that helps than you can use Process Lasso to do more permanent assignments. (it's free)

No, a capture card is only necessary to capture like a ps4/xbox or a 2nd PC.

CS:Go should be very easy to do, but don't expect to still get like 300FPS or whatever when playing and recording.

Try lowering the resolution first, other software won't help really. They're all the same, but the ones you pay for look nicer is all.

You also are going to want to get an on-screen display of things like individual CPU core usage to make sure your CPU is actually working right.

And to be sure, you did follow the instructions exactly in the first link I gave without skipping any steps?
