The log reveals a lot of information required for troubleshooting.

You're at the right place with the wrong information.

ok :) when i get back home ill post logs :) but in ur opinion the machine and internet should be good for streaming?
 
Harold isn't wrong that the estimator is usually pretty good, but having a real person help you out will still give better results. Once we have a log we'll be able to help you with that.

And yes, most likely your machine is good enough for streaming. The i7-4710HQ is a reasonable processor for streaming because it's Intel and has a reasonable amount of cores. The fact that your machine is a laptop isn't optimal, but it's a good enough laptop that it should work.

As far as your internet goes, regular speedtests don't give good results for streaming. You should use this instead, then tell us the results.

Expect a lot of your viewers to complain about buffering with those settings.

720p30 at 2000kbit works far better at allowing viewers to actually watch your stream.
