Hello,

I have a few questions reguarding my computer and all feedback is helpful. Right now I stream mobile games with an emulator aswell as yt opened with music along with my bot and obs. I get occasional lag spikes during the stream and currently assume it is my cpu to blame. Not only this, when i try to play a more intensive game that runs fine off stream such as csgo, it is unbearably laggy. What should I upgrade on my computer to make it preform better on streams. Here are my logs. http://pastebin.com/UxPGBwud

Upgrading your CPU to an FX-83xx should double your CPU power. Also those are fairly cheap CPUs.

(Make sure your system in running in dual-channel mode for the memory and you have an even number of sticks).

You could run mobile games on your mobile and then use something like "Screen Stream Mirror" to stream it over to your computer, thereby reducing the load on it.

A GPU upgrade would be the last thing I would do... and a GTX1060 or RX480 wouldn't be a bad purchase.

if you need more CPU power, then you're going to have to ditch at least the CPU and Motherboard.

Without stating a budget though, that's about all I can generically say.

Also... upgrade to Studio.

The budget would be under 400$ preferably, also occasionally I do mirror my device to my computer yet it is still laggy to the degree of me using an emulator.

Well if $400, then check and fix (if need be) your memory first.
Then upgrade the CPU.
Then upgrade the GPU.

That should give you a decent performance boost.

2 last questions, what does upgrading to studio do for me and would i need a new motherboard for a new FX- 8350?

Studio is supported. Classic is dead.

As to if your MB supports a FX-8350, you'll have to ask the MB maker. If you know the maker and model number you can look it up via Google. Most likely you'll need to update the BIOS to the latest version available to upgrade a chip 2 generations.
