Only because it doesn't support AVX, default X264 encoding via OBS which is the only cpu encoder I'm aware of, will use up to AVX512. Of which we don't have either AVX512, AVX2 or AVX available on X58. The gpu encoder is really the only option we have when using OBS. Unless someone has made a non-AVX encoder for OBS but that would really only benefit X58 as everything including and past Bulldozer or Sandy Bridge supports AVX.
If you want CPU encoding, maybe see if you can find a really cheap small form factor(SFF) Dell or HP. I can find Sandy/Ivy Bridge i7 machines for around $100-120 with a 500gb hdd and Windows, sometimes even 4770's for around the same prices on the high end.
I'm not sure how it functions but maybe you can toss in another video card and somehow use that, maybe somehow you could mix AMD/Nvidia so it doesn't use the same display as your gaming card. Although at this point since you have X58 and all the PCI lanes you could ever want, a PCI-E capture card might be the best solution for similar money.
