After I installed an r9 270x my computer started freezing about 5minutes into streaming.

No log reports, No blue screen. It just freezes.

Build:
A10-6800k at 4.7ghz 1.43v (been like this for a year)
corsair vegence 8g 1600mhz
xfx r9 270x
yada yada

Before I put this GPU in I was able to stream for hours upon hours. At 720p.

I switched. and Stream with OBS at 1920x1200 with 1.25x downscale. I cannot figure out why this is doing it. I tried running in 720p and it did the same thing. Any ideas? Is the CPU shutting itself down or what

EDIT:

I should go on by saying the computer stays extremely cool. 32c at idle, and gpu stays around the same. gpu will hit 50c at hard gaming and peak at nearly 60 but never gets much higher than that. The CPU never gets much higher than 60 either. Bios is up to date, all drivers are up to date.

I've checked a few other threads on here and noticed people having this similar problem have out of date drivers etc. So I'm not finding much help through older threads.

I added the GPU and noticed it ran pretty hot. Heated up the mobo and cpu and ran hotter than I liked. Specially for the OC. I added an evo 212 and some better case fans and that dropped the temp overall considerably well. That's really all I've changed.

EDIT:

Returned the CPU to stock clocks with turbo boost turned off (4.1 ghz) - Tried 1920x1200 first time and my old 720p settings I used with the other GPU. Still crashes ~5m into a stream.

However I'm able to play the same game. while downloading a movie. while watching other streams with higher cpu load and it wont crash.

...I'm sorry but how will that help my problem? It's a custom case with enough ventilation . It's not overheating that's for sure. It ran LITERALLY twice / (2x) / Double / Two times! as hot before I added the evo 212, both at idle, and during load. I never had this problem with streaming till I added the new GPU.
