The best gpu available will always be the best at any resolution. An RTX Titan or 2080TI will be the best at 1440p 144hz period. Same with 1080p and 4k. If you want the cheapest card out that can manage most games at that rate get a 1080 and even then in new games like apex legends a 1080 will not net you a steady 144fps even at all times. Personally i would never recommend anything less than a mid range gpu ex a 2070. Just due to lifespan and performance over time. But if you only have one game in mind or two and dont change games a 1060 or 2060 may be enough.

It means in windows 10 if you are using it go to cortana and type in "Power" Edit power plan should show up. Click that then click Change Advanced Power Settings. there will be a drop down for balanced, high performance, and power saver. Choose Balanced if it is not selected. I know high performance may seem logical but that can cause issues on some pc and it is a good trouble shooting step for this issue.

Honestly the conspiracy theorist in me just thinks they want you to use the app to bolster statistic numbers or it could easily be fixed. Also only other thing is alot of in browser streaming still like to use flash vs html5 i dont know why or how but that could be causing issues in newer browsers with legacy. Maybe if we found an old legacy browser that was supported in its state we could test.

change your system power config to moderate Control panel/hardwareandsound/poweroptions

If the bios is really corrupted there may be no way to get a display period. Only hope would be if the mobo designers have a failsafe method/ dual bios/ or swap-able bios chip.

do you have rgb lighting it may be a bad board but i would try disabling any background effects software to start the troubleshoot. As far as the game minimize it may help but also do you run multiple monitor? Fullscreen or borderless window?

are you able to connect a second display or have a monitor on the back check cpu/gpu usage and temps also mem usage. I would suspect in this order you are getting Thermal Throttle GPU Thermal Throttle CPU GPU Memory overload and dump Physical Memory overload and dump Last but very unlikly i would say Power throttle due to battery of what looks like you are using a laptop heating and needing to cool due to it either draining fast or passing current while charge/feeding the device simultaniously HDD needing to do random reads and again only 8gb of mem leaves you using hdd for buffer. Even an old ssd may experience slow down if its running below sata3 spec or just barely at.

yeah and a 2400g imo although a dec igpu if you want to game i would not rec unless you just want to play LOL as far as igpu have come. You can prob do csgo but even then 720p maybe at 60fps low settings i would be suprised if more. A gtx 750 at $50 would be a slightly better gpu and you could get a cheaper cpu and just 16gb of ram for a budget gaming rig. If its day to day again 16gb ram tops if its content then completely wrong cpu or again too much ram for whatever you would want to do with it.

Just a question are you using in browser or the windows app? I have a similar prob with xfinity on a good rig yet on my phone it works fine and im sure if they made an app it would too. As do i have visual issues with the WWE network in browser no mater what browser i have tried but the app works great.

NP that ram i posted is 1.2v as well. My main tip is try to find these things in closest relation to your current stick in order for best compatibitiy of course DDR4 is a given MAKE(GSkill) MODEL SPEED 2133 CAS (imo faster than current ram is better as it will be able to auto clock itself down than your other ram slowing) VOLTAGE although i doubt your 1.2v would be hurt even by 1.35 it is something i have never considered but im sure will be easy to find as we have already. Good luck i know stuff out in NZ and that area can be super expensive for pc parts. Wonder how much it is to buy in the US and ship to NZ than to just buy in NZ

start back to what you did and try one ram stick at a time. I think you may have a bad ram stick that will def cause this issue. Or a bad ram slot try dif slots

as long as you are not screwing with overclocks unlikely because they will want different things at different times and your mobo wont say feed just one 1.37v and the other just 1.34 for optimal use. But most ram is 1.35v and slight over stock will not hurt ram as they dont degrade with heat they actually run better to a point at hotter temps. Also main thing is check you mobo for rec slot for dual channel and single channel. I have a mobo that will NOT boot due to ram in the "wrong" slot config even if ram is just fine that can scare you after a purchase.

I Vote PSU and get a good quality one def 650w at least

also if that doesnt work just use DDU Display driver uninstall or let gforce experience reinstall and do a clean driver install.

go to nvidia control panel go to 3d settings and restore to default and disable other game individual game settings

Are you 100% its corrupted? What Motherboard?

maybe but highly unlikely just get from a place with a dec return policy and make sure they fall in line with your mobo accepted even then mobo may take it i have mixed 8gb 3200mhz corsair doms 16cl with 14cl 3000mhz gskil Triz 4gb sticks

still just get a model with same speed it will save you $$$

Any will be good but IMO try to find the same matching stick to your current one for dual channel. may not make a huge diff but will be faster none the less and prob same price.

So a 2200 g will work but if you are using x264 dont expect better than fast encoding with dec quality. Good for slower games like LoL but not as good for faster games like apex. If a 2400g would prob handel med to slow at best but expect medium. If you plan on using a gpu to encode i rec a gtx 1050 at least for best competing quality and skip the cpu to a $50 or less 4core recent athalon or celeron. Dont get anything more than a 1050 as quality within 10 series wont increase and go for 2060 and you will get near x264 med or slightly better even in some case quality. But if you want my most honest opinion ATM there is only 2 real options at the price considering all am4 boards take all cpu. Thats get a R7 1700 cpu or if you want a 2700 and the cheapest gpu you can find like a $50 hd7700 lol thats just ref cause what i use something just for display only and slight gpu use to relive cpu of in stream effects and video overlay stuff. OPTION 2 Wait a couple months Ryzen 3 is around the corner and option 1 will be a shiza ton cheaper so you may get a 1700 for under 150 or even a 2700 close. Or even a 3200g or 3400g and it will be better lol. we dont know but we know it odds are will be better, might even be able to replace your main pc and you can use that as your stream pc. I like option 2 the best i was on the verge of getting a 2600 but i swapped my gaming and main cpu and although a 2600 is good and better for streamilng x264 even for games like apex my hd 7700ghz was still near the same quality and worked fine with just the 2200g. So if that is reference a cheap 4core cpu at around 3.4ghz with an old bottom tier 1gb hd7700 will compete quality wise with a 2600 oc to 4ghz. Yes i could do 1080 with the 2600 and not the amd but the quality degradation for bitrate and fps made 720 a better option overall.

Everyone says 4gb is all you need. YES all you NEED is 4gb but trust me you will enjoy the snappiness of investing $20 more into your rig while ddr4 prices are low. Also Why SSD not HDD. Again i use a HDD and yes it will work but trust me you will like an SSD again testing a spare drive that i didnt want to dedicate to my stream pc i tested it and just in boot time and loading OBS/Slobs/Xsplit it made a HUGE Difference. My Hdd im using now is a 7200rpm seagate barricuda. If you have two fast 7200rpm drive you can do raid 0 but i mean for $20 120gb is plenty i use only about 60-70gb for all my software and then some extra for streaming and other things as i do use the pc for more than just that. If you want to record too a HDD will be more than enough but i will say get a fast one cause a slow cheap 5200 or even 7200 that is old and used may slow down performance even if just recording. IF I HAD TO BUILD A PC AND COULD WAIT TIL RYZEN 3 IN A FEW MONTHS I would do it all the same sans the gpu i would buy this prob https://www.amazon.com/MSI-GT-710-2GD3-LP/dp/B01DOFD0G8/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=gtx+950&qid=1553486096&s=electronics&sr=1-2 Or something similar price or less that i can do at least two monitor out with. As for Cpu i would just change that for either whatever is competetive in price either a 1700-2700 or maybe if the core and speed is worth a 3200 or 3400 as it will all fit in the same board and even though OC will net you gains for streaming i dont rec just cause IMO having a second machine is in part for stability during stream. Maybe a light OC but no need.

yeah it will work just fine but the hard part will be lining up properly with different resolution and screen size. As far as i know there is no way to specify display size in windows so it will assume all 1080p screens are the same size and your 1440p will be larger which may work for you since that is the case.

So im just feeling like bouncing some ideas out im thinking of going with and want to hear the general consensus or maybe get a new idea i didnt think of. I am currently running a dual pc single tower rig. Its the Thermaltake Tower 900 (TT900) one pc i have the main header up top connected for all 4 usb 3.0 power and reset. I have a few ideas for power for the second pc atm im just using a salvaged front panel module from an old corsair case that has 2 usb 3.0 power and hdd led and buttons in one plastic housing and that is just resting in the case as it is work in progress. IDEAS 1- Use individual wired buttons and usb and find discrete locations to hide or integrate the power light mainly and power and reset buttons and usb front panel and possible audio (somewhat important due to the nature of the second pc not having clean access to rear panel. 2-Buy a 5.25 front bay with usb and audio maybe some other features and use the audio jacks as the power buttons with a borkin button https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KTDZ6TM/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=e074d-20&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B01KTDZ6TM&linkId=ffd4c2a08beb872f880285d9cd6bd57b 3- If anyone can find a front 5.25" bay with power or i have to make a custom one which could mean butchering the stock 5.25 cover and have it end up not looking good anyway.

Im just curious if anyone with similar specs who attempt to stream have similar "issues" or if it is just what i should expect. Essentially i still seem to have blurry streams even though i use these settings but maybe its just the nature of the game for twitch. I Know these settings are not the best for people trying to watch at low bandwith but this is what i have got it to work at no prob i can prob reduce bitrate and still stream without issue now but just dont like the quality of it. Gigabit Down 50mbps Upload BTW so should be absolutely no bandwidth choke points
