Hey guys i just have a quick question in regards to this CPU and how it handles VR games and streaming on the same time. Now i know it only a 6 core processor and can only do so much but i got a little bit of shudder while playing a vr game and was wondering can streaming and gaming be to much for this processor ?

It should be fine, it's a very fast 6 core CPU. The stuttering you experienced could be due to lack of RAM. How much RAM do you have?

The more I learn, the more I realise I don't actually know anything. 

 

Recommendations: Lian Li 205m (sleek, pretty decent airflow for a non-mesh front panel and cheap), i5-10400f (Ryzen 5 3600 performance, 20% cheaper), Arctic P14 PWM fans, Logitech g305.

you might want to get a r7 3rd or 5th gen for streaming while playing

 

(r7 3rd gen is a few fps less than a r5 5th gen but its more optimal if your streaming)

You can use your graphics card to stream. Got an Nvidia GPU? Enable NVENC. Got AMD? Try their hardware acceleration.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

Yeah i got a 1650 super. 

With the Turing encoder that it's equipped with, you would get a high quality streamusing NVENC, without having to worry about CPU resources.

Oh okay so its a setting that i can enable in the OBS settings ? 

Yes, it's between software encoding (h264) and NVENC. I don't remember what the name of the setting is called but I do know that it's really easy to find, last time I went into the OBS settings.

Not necessarily. The largest majority of games right now run fine on 6c/12t, but there's already some that use more. Cyberpunk will easily scale to 12c/24t. You're going to see that trend accelerating in the future. It may take another year or two, but 6 core is going the way of quad core before it.

6 core will last a few more years. Quad core was the mainstream since budget c2q until like 9th gen Intel/r1000.
6 core will probably be the mainstream for consumers for at least 5 more years if I had to guess.

I could use some help with this!
