Question / Help B820 for 720p (with HD PVR2 from other PC)

Is this CPU good enough to do this ? Basically I will have my HD PVR 2 (capture device) connected via USB in my laptop, I will have picture there via HD PVR 2 software which doesnt really use too much resources. Game will be played on other PC. Can this B820 handle OBS with 2700kbps on veryfast preset ?

I'm wondering this because some heavy games actually are killing my CPU (battlefield, dayz) fx8350 so I want to stream from other PC. Also I have 2 separate inet connections so I will not decrease my 2700kbps to 2200 just to play with normal ping.

If B820 cant handle that what about E8400 ? I have another destkop PC but It would be a problem to transfer that PC in my room (just looking for all options).

The B820 and the E8400 are both awful CPUs for video encoding. You might be able to encode at ultrafast 360p25 on the E4800 if you're lucky, and I honestly wouldn't even try with the B820. They are not even close to fast enough to encode at 720p.
