Are you buying from the used market, or can you? If so, try to get a GTX 750 TI or GTX 950 cause they're almost always cheaper and they're most certainly better.

the GT 1030 is listed as "future specs" so I didn't know that you'd already got it.

 

for streaming, do it off the graphics card with NVENC so that the CPU can be free to use all its resources to game. The NVENC encoder doesn't take away from GPU performance too which is ideal

are u saying that using gpu for streaming dosent reduce the performance much?

i ordered the gpu on amazon and it will arrive next week.....

thanks a  lot it was really informative,

Yes, all Nvidia graphics cards since the 600 series has an encoding unit (or two) inside that is only used for recording and streaming. If you have an underpowered CPU, streaming with NVENC is a good choice.

you are right, they changed the rules from generation to generation and it seems the 1030 does not have support for NVENC. seems the 1030 does not have it which is usually only true of mobile GPUs

 

sorry to confuse
