    2 different gpu's for streaming.

    I just bough a new pc. 8700k and gtx 1080. I also have gtx 1060 laying around. I was curious if it was possible to have both in the pc. Use 1080 for gaming and use the 1060 stictly for encoding. I have another pc that I use to stream youtube. This one will go to twitch.

The Sapphire 4670 I originally bought with it left a lot of room for activities, but when I upgraded to a Dark Knight 4870 I found...

    Canada computers X8? does this mean A8?

    Hi quick question this is probably going to sound stupid. I was on canada computers looking at AMD X8 FX-8350 (125W) Eight-Core Socket AM3+, 4GHz CPU, 8Mb Cache, 32nm (FD8350FRHKBOX) and as you see it says X8. Does this mean A8, I assume it does I just wanted to make sure. Thanks
