Hello there,
I have only recently started streaming to twitch.tv. I have been playing PC gaming as opposed to console since 2012. I have an i5 3570K in my system and am into games like the CoD and battfield franchise. Last years Black Ops 3 ran fine but it was until now that I noticed that my i5 3570K was getting up to 95% when running the game which makes the game unstreamable due to OBS taking about 20% when live. Obviously the new Battlefield One is coming out and would be in my best interest to stream that from the same PC.
My question to the community is what difference in CPU usage would I see if I was to upgrade to an i7 3770K compared to my current to enable me to stream from the same PC. Keep in mind OBS uses 20% maximum when live.
Alternatively I could upgrade to a newer i7 6700K however that would involve me in upgrading RAM and MOBO which is a no go due to price
Thanks for any responses. It all helps me make the decision.
