Question / Help PC Freezing and crashing

Hey,

Just recently this started, whenever i stream about 2 minutes into it my computer will completely freeze, the last sound played will keep looping. Only way to restart is by shutting down my PC. I can't find any fixes on the forums or google and i know my hardware is more than capable of handling it. My CPU Cooling is a H100i, with very low temps. Keep in mind this happens with x264 and QuickSync. My computer never crashes or freezes whenever im just playing games(300fps on high) only when streaming.

Heres a few log files:

Anyone that's able to help it's much appreciated!

This is probably a hardware or driver problem. Streaming is very stressful on your system so it can likely cause things to fail that wouldn't otherwise show. Try running a stress test like Prime95 or OCCT to check your hardware.

Thanks for the response R1CH! However, Prime95 does not cause my to crash and stress testing is perfectly fine.

My hardware:

i7-4770k w/ h100i
evga 660ti
asrock z97 killer
corsair 800w psu
12gb vengeance ram
3 ssd's

edit: also while prime95 runs my temps don't go over 59c

I'm having the same problem. Though I only just started trying to stream for the first time today. Same exact problem with Xsplit Broadcaster too...I just checked to make sure my drivers were updated, everything appears to be fine. Not sure what is causing this problem.

I heard elsewhere that it may be linked to having a browser open, but it still happens even if the program and my game are the only things open.

Just looking for a solution myself too.

While i'm at it...in the couple minutes before my system froze, I looked on twitch for my stream from a different comp, it was only a black screen...would this be linked to the above problem, or is it probably just a setting I got wrong somewhere?
