From the little info I know and some test streams using my current system, I'll definity be using the GPU hardware to encode. I know AMD has trailed behind Nvidia's nvenc encoder, but from what I hear AMD has improved their encoding on the RX 9070 XT so that it's not as trash as it was. I have...

Damn, really hoping you were! haha. Technically neither am I :LOL: If anyone sees this with a bit of streaming knowledge I'd love to hear your two cents

Thank you for your recommendations. What's your thoughts on this build handing the gaming/streaming load? Just out of interest, if the RX 9070 XT wasn't an option, what other GPU would you choose?

What could I swap the case and cooler for? Idc about what the computer actually looks like tbh PS. I have a 2tb M.2 SSD that I have in the old PC that I'll pop into the new one

Hi guys, So I quit my job and I'm using my savings to have go at this streaming lark. Been spending the last couple months doing the rounds, waiting for new CPUs/GPUs to launch, watching reviews etc... with the release of the Ryzen 9 9950X3D and the RX 9070 XT I'm ready to start narrowing down...

Hi guys, just looking a bit of help with my build. 7yrs ago I bought a custom gaming laptop from PCS. Back then I was concerned with speed and longevity, and I have to admit that I'm really happy my laptop lasted this long. It was worth the money. But now it's given up the ghost. On to pastures...

My 30th birthday is fast approaching and I have a gaming itch I severely need scratched. I have a budget of up to £2000 but to be honest I don't think I need to be spending that much for what I want. What I want is speed, stability & still be relevant 3-5yrs time. I would sacrifice graphics for...
