Dual PC (Dedicated streaming PC) i5-6400 and gtx 960
If it was me I would stick to single pc setup unless I was having major issues that could not be fixed with adjusting settings. cpu and gpu are fine, try gpu encoding first. This of course depends on what games you will be streaming and what you require for fps etc but assuming nothing crazy intensive single should be fine

Struggling to get my microphone sounding clean when my voice starts raising, or is it just me?
seems like I was on the right track with it being the pyhiscal gain knob being the issue just being super hot

Struggling to get my microphone sounding clean when my voice starts raising, or is it just me?
quick glance makes me think this is just a gain not set somewhere. the following steps should help when followed in order.
1. Turn off all audio filters in obs. In obs make sure the blue slider for the mic source is max right (should say 0.0 db for the mic source). Audio processing for the mic outside of obs should also be turned off so things like if the mic has its own software or voicemeter, sonar, etc.
2. get the mic a proper distance from your mouth set. Do one of these 🤙 with thumb on mouth and pinky on front of mic where capsule is. Make sure the mic is pointed at your mouth
3. Set windows to 0.0 db this is what @Fcenturylink mentioned (sorry mattty for the ping lol). So make sure its in decibls and not percentage.
4. Use the physical gain control knob on the mic to set your proper gain (my assumption is this is basically maxed or close too and you are clipping at this point). You do this by adjusting the knob as you talk in your normal voice you use on stream. As you talk adjust the knob so your voice is on average between -18 to -12 on the audio meter in obs.
Once that is done your gain should be properly set. Do a few test recordings with still no audio processing to make sure you have the gain right and dont need to lower or increase it.
After that you can start with your filters but thats a separate topic haha. Hope this helps

no worries, after that if you still have issues and you also ruled out the plugins causing issues as I mentioned before. I would take a look at the eposvox vid that I am sure exists on this or maybe by then others with have recommendations

start with what I mentioned, the parts about not removing. I would also search Epos yt as I am pretty sure he has a video on this and gives more ideas/options

just a side that I thought of. to test to make sure its not the plugins you have like the vertical plugin causing the issues. so you could duplicate your scene colleciton strip it down to the bare to make sure the key parts of what the plugins use are still there and test again

reduce the complexity of the overlays, remove things you dont need, change mp4 and mov files to webm (see if that helps), have files shutdown when not active (in the properties of the source), reduce the use of gpu resources like the background removal etc.

Mic cutting out in OBS
yea a sample will for sure help. based on a quick skim though this sounds like the common issue of the noise supression thinking the high pitch sound is bad and then tries to remove it. Some options would be to try different noise supression options or if you can get away with it using something like a expander in obs. Also make sure mic is 6 inches or so from your mouth, speaking into the right part of it (not an end address mic), any things you can do to physically remove or damp noise sources are done, make sure windows is not boosting/process the mic (hunter mentioned this already), and your gain is set using the mic so your average between -18 to -12 and make sure peaks dont hit above -6 with all processing in obs or in the blue software off (also make sure you are not double processing it once in obs and in blue software). 🙂 good luck!
