Streaming Computer Build

[Midwest Jordan]

Hello Forms, I am looking at build a nice kick a** streaming/gaming PC. I am gonna be using a I9-9900K, with 64GB of ram, and mainly 2 RTX 2080 TI's. I am wondering if I would want to use them with NV-Link or not. I will be using 6 monitors in this setup if that helps. Anyone know?

Can you think of a reason why not?

 

Also, new Ryzen so soon. You can get a 12 core which would be even better for a streaming setup.

I've never really had any luck with AMD. And I just see some thing saying that it don't work properly sometimes in SLI

People who say they've "never had luck" with AMD or say that AMD processors have not lived up to their expectations have never used them. What AMD products have you owned?

 

SLI works on SLI compatible boards, that's the long and short of it. SLI itself has problems separate from whether or not you're using Intel or AMD

So for streaming u should go with AMD?

yeah, they're going to release a 12 core beast in less than a month and it'll come in a little less than the price of the 9900k.

Alright. Thank you!
