    On 720p? No fricking way. I stream @ 720p 30fps at a 1750 bitrate and that completely tanks my 16mbps connection and my stream still looks like a turd. 8mbps up would mean you'd have to stream at a lowly 500 bitrate which would be equal to a 240p stream with true quality.

    The recent stock coolers for 4th gen cpu's have been pretty good and holding the temperatures decently well. Still wouldn't recommend overclocking them but the paste and installation of the heatsink improved a lot. EDIT: Yes it should fit, they have the same mounting holes.

    the 4770k at 4.5ghz is doing most of the legwork there.

    Sounds too good to be true. Make sure its not a aliexpress fake card.

    Sorry didn't really read what you post since posts are flooding right now.

    Simply because nvidia tends to outdo AMD every time in the 1080p benchmarks. Unless you have 1440p+ screens AMD cards usually dumped on. People keep suggesting the 290 against the 970 but the 970 seems to keep on winning in games. Whether by gimmicky shady means or not, I will buy whatever performs better. Of course the 290 is in theory about 1.5x the card the 970 is but goddamn if AMD gets the ass card from developers no way in hell i'm buying their stuff. The intel vs AMD debate is silly and basically boils down to "do you prefer playing older games which tend to work better with single stronger cores or do you play newer games where the AMD cpu's outperform/go head to head." Anything past budget and Intel wins. I'm not gonna touch up the 960 vs 380 because its kinda the same concept. Yes people, I also am disgusted how a stupid 128-memory bit card outperforms the 380 but goddamn i'll be damned if it doesn't nearly 70% of the time.

    Don't you just love it when someone doesn't read the thread?

    USB 2.0 is limited to 480 mbit/s which equals to 60mb/s, which is roughly the speed of an older HDD. Doubt it will bottleneck much as per loading screens.

    Tbh i'd do it. For some reason CPU's don't die as fast as GPU's. Thats why scavenged CPU's from old builds keep working even after a decade of use.
