New CPU or new PC?

[Chandres]

Hello, Tech Tipsers

So. Im trying to get into some sort of gameplay recording and In order to get the highest quality (1440p 60fps) recording I  need a more beefy CPU. I have the money for a 6900k/5960x and an X99 board. So I could buy that or build a new not that overkill pc that runs an elgato? Which one should I choose

more beefy cpu. that'll help in rendering, decoding, streaming and recording your gameplay.

I fail to see how a 6700k and a 1070 fail at 1440p streaming !

I use an FX-8320 and a 970 and stream at 1440 on twitch and record at downsampled 1080.

 

Now I can't do both at once and still game effectively, but gaming and one of those is flawless.

If you can't stream nicely with a 6700k and 1070 (if thats what you have), then something else could be an issue.

 

imho

I think you may benefit more from using a 2nd PC for the recording and streaming if you do have a 6700K and 1070.

Try and traffic your stream through nvidia shield or a capture card...
