You can't really game on 2 screens since the middle will be inbetween the screens

I would strongly advise you not to buy an intel cpu for streaming as in streaming the load on the cpu is really high and since that cpu only has 4 cores streaming will take roughly around 70% of your cpu's resources leaving you with very little to be utilised and hence you won't be able to play games at the settings you desire due to the cpu.For eg-In starcraft 2 you will have to play on low-medium no matter what due to the 4 cores whereas if you went with fx8xxx series you would be able to stream and play the game with no performance hit at all.That is if you want to stream in 720/1080p

Hes talking about streaming not recording,there's a major difference between streaming and recording.If you have ever streamed and record(which I used to do) you'll figure out what I'm talking about.And the hit you're talking about in recording is due to the harddrive not the graphic card.In recording the higher the write speed of your harddrive/ssd the better the recording format will be.For eg if you want to save it as in raw data you will have to have around 500mbps write speed but since that isn't possible you record in a decompressed form which writes at around 25-30 mbps write speed which is possible for your harddrive.It takes almost no hit on ur fps if you do it correctly

are you streaming at 720p/1080p?I think I should have started with this opener
What kind of games do you play?
If you play any of the cpu intesive games a intel wouldn't be the best option whereas if it isn't cpu intesive intel will work just fine

I have both streamed an recorded @ 1080p before. Intel cpus are still better because the majority of programs will only be able to run on 4 cores or less, thus making the amd 6 and 8 core cpus much less effective. The Intel has stronger 4 cores so thats why Intel is better than AMD for streaming and recording.
