No. Most likely you would be better off in a single PC configuration than trying to use that as a streaming PC.

I already test streaming with single pc but not satisfied with the fps i got droped like 20% when streaming

Maybe my spec not good enough
Ryzen 7 2700x
16gb ram 3000 mhz
Gtx1080

Instead of spend money on new hardware i found that old hardware and planning to use as 2nd pc for rendering stream

But since u suggested to use single pc i have to upgrade my gaming system i guess

Switch OBS to using NVENC encoding. On a 10-series nVidia GPU, it's around x264 Fast quality, and will not affect your gameplay as NVENC is a separate part of the GPU core, which normally is sitting idle.
