I used all of my funds on upgrading the gaming pc... I’ve just got enough to buy a g4400 I was just wondering if that processor would be able to handle streaming at the lowest possible settings at 720p 

Yeah, you probably wanting him to reply aswell but i'm just gonna add, i was able to use the ndi plugin to stream at 720p 60fps when using the pentium g4560 (2 cores, 4 threads) and a celeron g3930 (2 cores, 2 threads). I lost my celeron machine to a power surge but it worked well

I finished my gaming pc and I’m thinking of streaming fortnite and Pubg etc

 

is pentium G4400 ok for 720p 30fps/60fps streaming

 

im in a tight budget here and I already have other stuffs from my previous pc

 

main pc:

i5 7600k

gtx960 4gb

8gb ddr4 

 

2nd pc:

mobo which has lga1151 socket 

4gb ddr4

No, the G4400 will not work as a streaming PC... 2 cores 2 threads?? Will be destroyed.

It "should" do fine for 720p 30fps, that is if you are using obs ndi or something. My thoughts are that you are gaming on your main pc then outputting the stream to the secondary. I'm able to stream 720p 48fps with a pentium g4560 (and gt 1030) aswell as obviously playing the game.
