My computer freezes completely (No keyboard response, no mouse response). I have to hit the power button to resolve this.
Not a hardware issue, and doesn't apply when viewing just my desktop. Once I turn on a full-screen game however, the stream will go fine for around 5 seconds to around 5 minutes then freeze.
3D Games work fine. I have some weak proof but since this has been so consistent I'm going to go with the inductive reasoning. I've streamed a replay of Starcraft 2 (I don't play protoss, no judging ;) )
I play a 15 minute replay of Starcraft 2, I typed out the temps in the video. If you don't want to watch, max temps were 60/75 CPU/GPU. That's about average for what I get while gaming on SC2; heavy on CPU, less so on GPU. I'm on a Micro ATX case so that may explain higher temps.

In the above video after I run SC2 for 15-blizzard-minutes, I turn on GunZ the duel, an older fullscreen game (2006, DirectX 9) that happens to be a shooter. As soon as I get into the menu I crash. Same happens for another old fullscreen game I have, O2Jam, 2006, "DirectX capable". Probably DX8 or 9 again. I run SC2 on WIndowed fullscreen.
In the above video the stream ends when I press select. My computer completely froze shortly after - I had gotten to the menu of the game, but the stream didn't catch it.
Temps were not high when I crashed on Gunz. I just started it up, after all.
