So, I built this rig roughly 4-5 years ago and I'm starting to see it's age.
My main issue is that I'm having a tough time streaming my games at a good quality.
I'd like to ask the community what I should update and what I should update to.
I don't want to turn this into an Intel vs AMD argument, I'm not shy about going from one to the other if the improvement warrants it.
Do realize that I've attempted to upgrade over time and the thing honestly feels more like a Frankenstein hodgepodge and the bottle necking I'm seeing is kind of bugging me.
