Processor for livestreaming/uploading gaming videos

[irregularsoul]

Ok, I would like to know what would be a good processor for uploading/ livestreaming games I play. Another thing I would also like mention is that I want to livestream in 720p also be able to upload gameplay videos in at least 720p as well. I was looking at the Intel Core i5 3570k, but I dont know... I might be able to cough up another $100 to get the i7 3770k. Except I dont know if it would be worth it. Thank you!

The i5 is more than capable of running everything. What you need to make sure you have is an internet connection with half decent upload speeds.

Upload speed depends on your internet connection.

Encoding videos to upload to the internet... well that's different...

Thanks! OK would about between 1.5mb/s and 2.5mb/s be good enough?
