I have bought an asus mc32cd pc and have been using it for steam games i mainly play csgo and dayz and im looking to record it for my youtube channel. This pc has an awful integrated graphics card and runs these games at 10-28 fps. I need help with picking a amazing graphics card and powersupply that is compatible with the pc specs and can run the game at 1920 by 1080 with 60+ fps while recording. I dont have a price range so anything is fine i just really need help.

This is the pc:http://www.amazon.com/M32CD-Desktop-Windows-Keyboard-Mouse/dp/B01BGT69OE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1458536921&sr=8-1&keywords=asus+mc32cd

I am searching for the mother-board model for you, I could not get it, if you can post it, it will help others to decide for you.
 


DayZ you wont get 60fps, its just a badly optimized game, probably the worst optimized game out there.

Anyway I can't fine the exact PC anywhere, so I can't tell what CPU you have. The only issue with the R9 390 is that you will be stuck with CPU encoding for recording, nothing wrong with the R9 390 for gaming, its a decent card for the price, But you have to consider Nvidia, I would recommend a GTX 970 or a GTX 980 and use Shadowplay or another recording software and record with Nvenc (what shadowplay uses) which OBS will use Nvenc if your into streaming.

With Nvenc or shadowplay, I record all my videos at 60fps at 50,000 bit rate (Files get huge though) and I maybe drop 10% of my performance when I enable it to record. AMD version is with the gaming Evolved app which you will drop further then 10%, as it still uses some a good bit of CPU for compression.

Im not trying to throw you off the R9 390, its great gaming card, and if thats all your recording, it should do just fine, but other games can be more CPU demanding and simply recording with the AMD card could drop performance quit a bit compared to a newer Nvidia card with shadowplay or the Nvenc encoding which a ton of recording software can use.

Good luck!
