Does streaming affect fps?

[KJalchemist]

I'm trying to make a Budget PC, but I'm worried that streaming might have too much of an impact.

 

This is the question, does streaming affect fps (Streaming 3000 bitrate 720p 60fps or 1080p 60fps)

Yes , it requires system resources , and so does whatever game you are playing. if both require more resources than the machine has you'll have lag

Hello,

Yes! Because you rendering the same frames two times, one to your monitor, other to the recording software. 

 

Sending the data to the streaming server uses cpu that can affect more.

 

Also more 720p 60fps is like rendering1280*720*60 = 55296000 Frames to your computer to send to the server!

Yeah if you don't have enough threads

[WereCat]

Yes. Quite a bit, especially if you want to use CPU for x264

Sending the frame to the streaming server uses cpu that can affect gaming.

 

Also, 720p 60fps is like rendering1280*720*60 = 55296000 pixels on your computer to send to the server!

What do you mean by frames in that last part.

JDE corrected me "Also, 720p 60fps is like rendering1280*720*60 = 55296000 pixels on your computer to send to the server!"

Oh, thanks

So Would a Core i5 7600k (With GTX 1060) get the job done?

[conaxtreme2]

Should, you can see if it bottlenecks on the bottom corner "dropped frames"

If you use x264 you will get unplayable FPS. If you use NVENC on your GPU your stream will be in bad quality at the low 3000-6000 bitrates that are required for Twitch.

You need Ryzen 5 1600 or Ryzen 7 1700.
