Hello gues
Problem :
When playing Heroes of the storm (after 6 pm)
I start logs and wrote that the high CPU load 60%+
The temperature of 40 degrees
If reran stream, the CPU is reduced to 10%
what to do to the CPU did not reach 60% in the streamers?

Computer Specifications:
CPU : AMD FX-8350
GPU Amd radeon R9 270
mortherboard : ASRock 970 Pro3 2.0
RAM : 8gb
WDC WD10 EZEX-08M2NA0 SATA Disk Device
Windows 7

watch that temps dont get close to 64C and also ensure that coreparking is disabled. disabling coreparking might introduce extra heat if heat is your issue. Also post a logfile before and after for compare. check processes to ensure that nothing additional is running after 6PM.

Here's the latest analysis

Code: 
23:45:59:     max bitrate: 1900
23:45:59:     buffer size: 3500

don't do this. keep bitrate and buffer the same. I don't know why people think this helps anything. ideally 2500 bitrate to 720@30 which should be fine for what you are doing.

Code: 
Syncing audio to video time

There should be very little reason to Force desktop audio to use video timestamps. uncheck it for now.

Other than that, your encoder thread is a little on the high side but I would assume this is either from core parking or temps getting high. use hwmonitor to check for both. to disable coreparking google. there are utilities to unpark cores.

Your in-game FPS is 10? Don't care about CPU load, you should only care about duplicated frames and the in-game performance.

17:07:57: Total frames encoded: 975738, total frames duplicated: 11556 (1.18%)
17:07:57: Number of frames skipped due to encoder lag: 1838 (0.19%)
17:07:57: Total frames rendered: 973780, number of late frames: 570 (0.06%) (it's okay for some frames to be late

Your duplicated frames is a little high IMO. I think the video quality is affected once its over 1% or so. For a game like HotS, 1.18% may be fine though. That said, the OBS logs don't tell us your game performance, only the OBS performance. And I'd say your OBS performance right now is "ok".

Try this little tweak:

Go to Settings > Advanced > Video > Custom x264 Encoder Settings > (check it on) and put in "threads=9".

See if things perform a little better. Let us know the in-game framerate and post a new log file.

Why would he do that?

@Ethreenikita you need to search google for "core unparking"

a utility like hw monitor will tell you if you are parking cores at any time. It is best when streaming to leave them unparked.

Its odd from the utility you are using your usage of any one core does not go above 100% ever. this makes me think that your power setting are not on "maximum performance"

I checked power settings its on max performance

Yesterday I did core unparking, added 'thread=9' to custon x264 encoder settings and also found a checkbox in OBS Broadcast Settings to "automatically save stream to file".
Yesterday stream went fine for 12 hours and today for 7 hours

So what do you think solved the issue?

I'll remove 'threads=9' and see how it works tomorrow.

The problem I have is
that mini-logs appear
with streamers duty
what can Truce this problem?

two things still wrong. 1 uninstall Gaming Evolved (aka Raptr), it is active and also trying to hook the scenes which is an issue with OBS.
Second is your buffer size is higher than your bitrate. Expect viewers to buffer and stream to skip around. set these to the same would be ideal. 2500 for both is standard for your resolution.

Duplicate frames doesn't seem to be an issue anymore.

In addition to what dping said, set your key interval to 2 seconds. This is a Twitch recommendation / requirement. It appears to be on auto now.
