EpicBlob Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Hey guys so I'm thinking of building a PC just for streaming gameplay so my current system doesn't face the huge bottleneck while using fraps or anything (specs at the end). Main reason being is I have a horrible cpu so gaming+recording is pretty much impossible lol.One of my friends has some desktops that he doesn't use anymore, which I could get away with scrapping its PSU, motherboard, memory, and a hard drive with 64bit windows 7 (I don't know specific model numbers for the parts but I can check this weekend). The only other parts I believe I need is a capture card and cpu.My question to you guys is what's the lowest of each (price wise) I could get away with to have a decent streaming only pc. I'm just starting out to record gameplay, so 720p is fine for the capture card. And I know an AMD quad core is like an i3, but would one of the new Vishera models work? And I'm trying to spend as little money as possible.Thanks!Computer Specs:2011 macbook pro 13inch 2.3ghz dual core i5 sandy bridge, 8gb ram, 250gb samsung 840 ssdVidock External Graphics Card (NVidia 560)27inch 1080p monitor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
