    Locked Skylake i5 or AMD FX Eight Core for Streaming?

    The i5 I am planning to buy is either the 6400 or 6500 (still deciding, help maybe?) but there is also the FX series with eight cores like 8350 or 8320. Which would be best for streaming with good performance at 720p60 stream quality?

    i5 6400, i5 6500, or i5 6600 for Streaming Mainly Minecraft

    Hello, I mainly stream Minecraft as that is what my viewers love the most, but I do want to stream Overwatch or CSGO in the future. I need an upgrade from my AMD A10, so I am starting an entire new Skylake build. Which one should serve me best for the money? Things to keep in mind: -I don't...

    Would these parts work good for streaming?

    http://pcpartpicker.com/list/wT7mPs Please tell me if these parts aren't good enough for live streaming or not compatible. I already have a GTX 700 series card all I need is the other parts. Thank you.

    Is this PC build good for streaming and recording?

    http://pcpartpicker.com/p/jJPNnn I already have the graphics card and I am using it. Along the road, I will upgrade it but not just yet. I plan to stream 720p60 with x264 on OBS. Thank you

    i3 6100 or fx6300??

    I would try to save up for an i5 6400 just so you have a quad core. 6300 is below average, just as many AMD CPUs are. i3 is dual core, but still decent. But just to ensure that you will have a long lasting CPU that can run current and upcoming games, I would save a tad bit up for the i5 6400.

    Intel Xeon E3 1231-V3 for x264 live stream encoding 720p60fps?

    I am hearing very good things about the Xeon 1231 and I have a few questions. -Would it be good for 720p60fps live streaming through OBS using x264 with much of an FPS impact (mostly playing Minecraft and other games on occasion)? -Would I be better off getting an i5 4690k for nearly the same...

    Would this Build Be Fine for Live Streaming Games to Twitch?

    Hello forum, I was wondering if this build can handle live streaming games to Twitch. As of now, I have a really crappy AMD APU build with a GTX 750Ti to stream (NVENC sucks at streaming bitrates, but it has to be used or else my APU will be burnt toast), but in good news it is my birthday soon...

    Athlon X4 860k good for streaming on Twitch?

    Hello, I was wondering if the AMD Athlon X4 860k is good for live streaming to Twitch using the x264 encoder with 720p 60fps (if not, then I can do 50, 40, or 30 fps). If I decided to get it, this will replace my crappy AMD A10 6700, that can barely handle 720p30 streaming, hence the reason I am...

    Changing CPU (and some other components)

    Hello Forum, I am here to make this thread to ask if I can switch out my motherboard, processor, and ram and see if it would work with my PC. So far, all I really have is a stock PC I bought at Best Buy with a dedicated Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti added in it myself. The PC I have now (excluding...
