Gaming + streaming simultaneously

keteypab64 · Apr 22, 2018

im new to pc building and pc's in general, but ive been reading over the past 2 weeks and learning everything i can. Is this build good for gaming and streaming at the same time without any lag or dropped fps or is this overkill for what I want? I mainly plan on playing mobas,hunt showdown,and other competitive games. If i could save money on this build and get the desired effect that would be great and any help would be awesome.

Up at the top of the page it says [bb]. Click that and highlight the selected text, copy it. Paste over here.

A 2 second Google revealed a 1070 that is $100 cheaper at B&H Photo.

Apart from that, it look like it's going to meet your needs. You might want to look at the 500GB Crucial SSD. With some game exceeding 50GB in storage needs the 250 i at the bare minimum size for a gaming rig.

You have a Win 10 disk but you don't have an optical drive.

1080 will give a higher FPS. Also, you can use it to encode during gaming and streaming to share the load, and the more powerful 1080 will help with that.
