Hello

I builded this Streaming pc for me twitch work. It got a AMD FX 6350 and a 78LMT-USB3 motherboard it gots a decent cooler for around 20 dollars and a power supply for 700 watt and a SSD 120GB and 2 1TB HDD. But this big problemen is the smoothness. When i'm streaming with me capturecard on the pc i got around 50% CPU just normal and fine. But the pc is just not smooth when i press start it comes in with around 20 fps if i need to say it like that xD and when someone follows me it will trigger a alert in screen and this alert isin't smooth either this is same with the gameplay. If i put the capturecard in my own pc the problemen isin't here. And without the capturecard the problemen still excist.

My 3 options are:
1. The Intern Motherboard GPU is to bad to handle this or something like that.
2. The CPU has some problems cause it it 4 years old.
3. The motherboard isin't compitable with the mother board.

Can someone give some arguments to this toughts?

Already thanks :D

First of all the 78LMT-USB3 motherboard is quiet a low priced board.
And you are right if you are using the onboard video solution of the motherboard it`s very lacking in processing power for high quality video processing.

The Fx 6350 Cpu is fine for what you intend to use it for.

But the main problem of bad video frame rates it the 78LMT-USB3 motherboard.
A motherboard that is very low priced to buy often chokes or hinders the full potential of the cpu placed in the cpu socket of the board.

And the video solution of the motherboard is not very powerful for video encoding or decoding with use with a capture card.

You will find if you use a better motherboard with at least an AMD 970A chipset on it that things will run much better...

One thing though, mobo not compatible with mobo? But alright, the GPU is really weak, I still can't get it how you even use it. The FX is old, but really darn powerful for it's price and ge so it probably isn't the issue.

And if you also fit a Pci-e mid range graphics card.

The other thing to consider is how much ram the system has.
If you are running a system for example with only 2Gb of ram it will run worse than a system with 4gb or 8gb of system memory fitted to it.

I would consider if you could as I said buying a motherboard with a AMD 970A chipset on it, and placing the FX 6350 cpu in it, and have at least a bare minimum of 4gb fitted to it or 8Gb of system memory as a better option.

I would pick up a Pci-e Graphics card that will be more powerful than any onboard graphics chip on the motherboard it`s self.

From e-bay second hand, something like a 5800 series ati card or a 4900 series card, if cost is a problem.
You could pick one up for about $40 second hand.

The memory Motherboard used and the onboard video solution of the 78LMT- USB 3 are what are letting you down and why you have such low frame rates when doing video capture.
