My new system is going to be built up of...

i7 4790k
GTX 760 4gb Jetstream (Maybe later on in the year to a 900 series 980 or something)
8gig ddr3 (If I get the money 16gb)

I plan on running games like BF4, Total War games, SA:MP(GTA SA online) and GTA 5.


My question is this, can I stream at 720p or maybe 1080p using x264 codec at a good bitrate(My upload is 6mb so bitrate shouldn't be a problem).
 
720p should definitely work, tweaking of the games can be necessary to some extent though. Especially BF4 and GTA5 are heavy on the CPU and GPU so they can be a problem.
But in general if you start streaming, use 720p anyway and for the games I would probably use at least 2500kbit of your upload. Stick to 30fps for a start and you should be good to go.
