I happen to have an fx8350 lying around and have become addicted to streaming to twitch. Would a 8350 be good as a dedicated streaming pc for x264 720p 60 fps streams. Is there anything I should know about it before I begin to use it.
That CPU will be fine. I encode 1080p60 video in real time whilst gaming on it. Can struggle a bit sometimes, but as that will only be tasked with the encoding, it will suit it well.
