Question / Help A simple testing request

Hello fellow OBS forum members. I would just like to ask if anyone with an AMD FX 8320/8350 could tell me/test what the slowest x264 encoding profile is that that CPU can handle at 720p 60fps with lanczos and bicubic sharper filtering with high action gameplay (so basically all sections of the video frames changing every frame). I'm thinking of giving streaming a try and building a dedicated streaming box with an AMD FX83xx CPU and just wanted to know how well it would perform in this task. As a lot of benchmarks on the interwebs seem to just contradict eachother

not that I could test this, but if its a one PC setup, faster would probably be it on high motion games. I say this because of the logs I've seen from people trying it and how much CPU time. dont take my word for it, but I usually check out charts like this. but I will say that they dont specify what settings they use, but it will show a comparison of other CPUs that encode well.
