Question / Help Is my Computer powerful enough? How to get the right PC for recording?

[RNO]

Probably the main concern of any newbie in PC Gameplay recording and streaming..

so I just bought a brand new computer of the german amazon: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00S9OWZOI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I took the 333.00 Eu version.
I want to record LoL and WoW gameplays. I don't really care for streaming at the moment. So I have 2 questions to the tech guys:
1. Can you tell me if this computer seems powerful enough to handle built-in recording with an acceptable quality? (sry if the page is in german, the techs should be easy to find though)

2. And what are the things to look for in general when you're getting a computer?

3. Any suggestions on affordable parts or full built PCs that are good for streaming?

Cheers, and thx for taking the time to read this!

Recording is pretty much the max you can do, due to the power Management on an AMD APU you might be able to stream 540p30 in some games maybe even 720p30.

Recording should be doable in 720p30 if you follow the Guide https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/obs-classic-how-to-make-high-quality-local-recordings.16/ and change the Resolution downscale to 1280x720.

Your upgradeability is also rather small. For gaming only the PC is okay if you add a dedicated GPU in the future but even then the APU is quite weak for streaming.

A PC that is good for streaming starts with an current Gen i5 for ~230€, RAM/MB ~90€, PSU/Case ~90€ and a GPU ~150€
for Storage you can either reuse what you got now or get a good HDD for ~53€
