I'm curious why you are capturing on two PCs at once. From what I can tell, your computer should be able to play and stream the game right now. It's a bit tricky setting up OBS, so maybe check out some setup videos they can help sort it out. It sounds like you have a few choices to capture your game. Try using just the external card first and see if that fixes the problem. Remember, if you are connecting with HDMI for your display, audio might be going with it too since HDMI carries both video and sound. Make sure your audio setting inside OBS is correct.
I've always thought having a second PC would be better to handle transcoding and encoding while my main PC handles the heavy GPU load for the game. Most streamers out there especially on Twitch do this well. I'll try it with Twitch Studio, OBS, etc., just on my Main gaming PC.
