Question / Help Streaming rig config

[lee]

So at the moment I use one rig to stream and game from but came into an i72600 none K machine so was going to use that for streaming my games taking the strain off my main rig but it doesnt have a gpu card so was wondering uif a gt730 2gb gddr5 version would be ok for the streaming rig. I will be capturing using an elgato hd60 pro and hope to capture on the fast setting. I dont use complex stream stuff just a green screen and a couple animated scenes for star end brb etc. What do you guys think?

I hate to be "that guy" but if you don't know what the requirements are for your use case, you probably don't need a second streaming PC, and you'll be better off investing the money in upgrades for your current PC.

Two PC streaming is a giant headache, at best.

Its more a case of the gpu if anyone has experience with it tbh as I dont know the 730 other then its very weak. Currently I am able to run 720@60 on fast without issues as I have an I7 5820k oc to 4.5 and a gtx1080 but I just like the idea of a streaming pc, maybe, like you say, jsut leave the 2nd pc out of it fullstop. More curious about the 730 capability in a streaming pc tbh. Thanks for you reply though dude.

A 730 is likely going to be worse than the integrated GPU. Could not recommend for any use case outside internet browsing.

Yeah you are probably right I shall prob get a 750ti or maybe even look at the 1050 series as I think the 750/1050 series are more suited. Thanks for your replies.
