You're not gonna be able to stream with either of those my man. Both are ancient/slow. I would just keep saving up 

1060 has decent NVENC encoding. It's not flawless, but enough for a low budget stream. 

 

 

Budget (including currency): 300€’ish

Country: Latvia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: GTA V, RUST, COD MW, CSGO, Maybe streaming lightly and recording clips

Other details First PC is my specs, but in need of an upgrade.

 

Very tight budget here, but I have 2 options as of now, that look very cheap for what they are. (i think)


My PC

CPU - i5 4690

MB - MSI H81M P33

GPU - RX 470 4GB

PSU - CORSAIR C550F

SSD and HDD ofc

 

(Got an RX470 4GB for 60€, while planning this)

 

I need of an upgrade to record and stream and play other titles.

 

2 options -

1. upgrade the existing CPU/MB/RAM

 

Looking at an I3 10105F / 10100F. (Dont think going Ryzen 3 would be a any better, but let me know) Paired with a A320M motherboard and probably 16GB of ram. + new PSU  I can get this for around 190€ (Not counting new SSD)

 

2. sell my pc, buy a similar one

 

Second option PC

CPU - Ryzen 3 3200G

MB - Gigabyte A320M-H

GPU - GTX 1060 3GB

PSU - Xilence XP600 (not so great)

Only 1 TB HDD

 

for 250€
 

I dont know… The 3200G doesnt seem to stand close to the 10th gen i3, but still looks tempting 😂 The gpus… As ive looked up, the rx 470 is still better than a 1060? Need help, im in a fallafel 

 

THANKS FOR ANY HELP AND/OR ADVICE IN ADVANCE
