I have been trying to stream on twitch, but i noticed my games have been having a lot of problems with frame rates when i go live. I have Borderlands 2 or minecraft on the lowest possible settings, and they run PRETTY well when offline at max settings. But when I go live, i have to turn the settings all the way down. Here are my specs:

CPU: AMD FX 6300 6 core black

RAM: 8GB

HDD: 1TB

SSD: none

Motherboard: Unknown. It cost me around $60

Power supply: Corsair CX600

OS: Windows 7 home premium

Graphics card: NVIDIA Geforce GTX 750 TI

All of this (let me know if i forgot anything) And i still have issues. Several people have told me it should be running way better than this. Any tips on what I did wrong? Should my computer be running better than this? Thanks!

it takes quite a bit of processing power to record or stream live gaming in most situations.
what resolution are you running it and streaming at and what settings ingame are you using?

if you want good speeds when doing this type of activity at decent resolution and settings you may need a better CPU, GPU, and better than a $60 motherboard may help.

What CPU/Motherboard/GPU would you suggest? I don't really have the money for anything, but what would you suggest if i could upgrade anything?
