WTF is Bandicam doing?!

I use Bandicam to make gaming videos on my YouTube channel because I'm too lazy to install a capture card, lol...

[check my videos out sometime! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHA7P0b-GL28S46Fqd1YFcPaXIZaKNu9W]

...but lately the video files it's making are HUGE! Obviously I have to do everything in 10-minute segments because I use Free Bandicam, so during a gaming session I take all the 10-minute videos and put them together as one in Windows Movie Maker then I upload it. Most of my gaming videos are about an hour long.

However, lately Bandicam's files have been HUGE! I mean it is literally taking 1GB per MINUTE of video I take, and it just records in my screen resolution, 1680x1050. Because of this, each hour-long or so video I do ends up being nearly 60GB in filesize and it not only takes multiple days to upload but in the process it wrecks my internet bandwidth and makes my 15MBPS DSL line into sub-dialup speeds.

I've checked Bandicam's settings and all is default, so IDK what to do. Can anyone here chime in please?
I would recommend using OBS instead. its free, its unlimited, and it records in MP4.
