Hey everyone.
I am a streamer over on twitch.tv and I'm looking to crank out a great quality stream.
I currently run a 2pc setup where I game on my main pc and stream/encode off the other.
The specs of the streaming pc are:
q9550
4 gb ram
8800gts
Now encoding/streaming is all about the cpu and with these specs I can stream at 720p30fps.
I want to stream at a crisp 1080p but I also don't want to spend a fortune doing so. So, I come to you guys seeing if you can build me a streaming pc with an i5 2500K.
I will be using my current case, 8800gts, psu, and hdd.
From what it looks like, this means I need:
CPU (2500K)
RAM
MOBO
CPU FAN
So, what is the cheapest streaming build I can make?
