Create me a Streaming PC Build

Disciple Zero··1 votes·1,736 views

Hey Everyone! I'm currently trying to go from playing league on a really, like REALLY crappy laptop to hopefully a good Desktop PC that can be able to play league at 60fps or higher at 1080p on (High settings?) and hope to stream with too. Let me just show you what i'm dealing with right now with my current laptop specs.

Laptop: HP 2000 Notebook (LOL, Got it back in 2013, started playing league early 2015) SPECS: CPU: AMD E-300 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics

GPU: AMD Radeon HD 6310 Graphics

RAM 4.0 GB

Operating System Microsoft Windows 10, 64-bit (Originally Windows 8).

So yeah, it sucks LOL. Usually get 15-25FPS(All graphics as low as possible) during laning phase. During late game team fights, forget about. Lucky if i stay above 5fps.

This would be a huge upgrade for me. I would also hope to stream on this new rig because i've always liked to entertain and it would be fun. So i would like you guys to create me a part-list cause i'm not so knowledgeable when it comes to picking out pc parts.( https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ ) Here are some info though,

Budget: $550-$650 (Can go a little higher) Operating System: Windows 10 Home

My friend also created a part-list for me to, i just don't know if its reliable: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/mbW98K You can use that as a starting point i guess.

Thanks!

The list your friend made is pretty good. You might consider the Nvidia GTX 950.

Why would you suggest a weaker card? The RX 470 is miles ahead of the 950 for not much more money.

Because if you're going to get anything more expensive than the 950, it may as well be the 480.

Why would you suggest 1 stick of RAM on a dual-channel system?

The RX 480 4gb is $200 for around 10% better performance than the $170 RX 470 4gb. But for the same $30 gap, the RX 470 is around 30% faster than the $140 GTX 950 2gb. The RX 470 is a good compromise between the RX 480 and the GTX 950.

I suggested a single 8 gb stick so that he can just easily add another 8 gb stick in case he wants to upgrade to 16 gb.

Here's a build that will blow your friend's build out of the water for less money (as of the time of writing this comment).
