This is why your stream freezes. It has to skip frames because your system is so incredibly weak that it cannot encode anything.

It's not an issue of giving OBS more RAM. Your APU is super underpowered for streaming/recording. Try downscaling your resolution to 360p or lower, change your FPS to 25, and your x264 preset to ultrafast, and see if that helps at all. If not, you'll need to get new hardware.

There's no chance that CPU can encode a livestream. The fix is to upgrade / replace your computer with something more modern.
