Posted March 20, 2016 I need a pc build that isn't going to kill my budget for streaming. My current setup is a Pentium Q9650 with 8gb of ddr3 1600 ram, a raid 1 configuration w 2-2tb HDD's and a gt 730 graphics card. Is it possible to use this computer to do the actual streaming and video encoding with another build consisting of a G3258 (OC'd to 4.4ghz stable), 16gb ddr4 2133 ram, a 240gb ssd and gtx 970 to do the gaming? Looking to stream 720p @60 FPS using the Q9650 and game on the G3258. Obviously over time I will throw an unlocked i7 on the board in place of the G3258 down the road.

Should be ok for the short term. Go for a CPU with great single core performance, as streaming loves single core performance.

Not so sure if those exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
