No. Please not another Fortnite streamer…

Jo

How do I have to present my arts?

An

Fortnite is not art.

Jo

If you play like that, I know, then yes.

Streaming requires many CPU cores / threads. Because in addition to the game, the video also has to be calculated and saved. So it's a double burden.

The i5-4xxx has only 4 cores / 4 threads - just enough for the game.

If you want to play and stream in full quality, I recommend the Ryzen 2700, which has 8 cores / 16 threads.

This CPU is not that expensive either, only you need a new motherboard (with X470 chipset) and 16 GB DDR4 RAM (3000 MHz).

Fortnite is not art but dirt!

mi

Please "TheHunter" and "PfefferReis" - even if I do not play Fortninte myself, it is as challenging as any other game!

We're here to help, and not to override others! Not true?

@ Poltergeist: I wish you much pleasure and success while streaming! And do not be disappointed, if the fans fail, there are already so many well-known streamer, it's hard for a newcomer!

But your name is Gandalf not Bernd, you Gandalf.

Ma

Normally I would say video games are art or art is what the viewer recognizes as art but Fortnite * kotz * that's just filth.

mi

Haha, yes, so listen carefully to what Gandalf the Wise has to say!

Ma

Gandalf is more powerful than Bernd. Say, he's more powerful than you. After all, he's Gandalf, am I right?

mi

Only people who have a "limited horizon" are overwhelmed to see that what is "dirt" for one, but something "ingenious" for another.

I think if you ignored yourself, you would realize that Fortnite is also very good. Try it, because I do not think you are one of those people who are really "limited".

Ma

I played Fortnite myself. It was too stupid to build with me. Zero tactics and people like me die fast. The graphic did not appeal to me. I just tried it and I did not like it. I have a very strict taste system.

Meanwhile I play H1Z1 and PUBG Mobile. I like the graphics, you die faster and without building, it's more tactical and exciting.

And no, I'm not limited, do not worry. I've called it dirt to see if he's serious or if he's a troll. I'm able to accept other opinions.

mi

Thank you for your kind education, I think that's really nice of you!

Exactly, I do not like Fortnite, but there's no denying that millions of other players like Fortnite really great.

I still do not have to like it, but I acknowledge and respect that many others like it… Now we have it but I think I've talked enough…

I wish you Dog3942 a nice day,

And good luck in H1Z1 and PUBG.

Greetings from,

Gandalf the Wise, and / or / maybe Bernd;

I would not spend 500 euro for streaming. Vllt, later when I see I'm fine. Is there no way iwie with 30fps in 720 p to stream

Lo

With the setup, the streaming is unfortunately nothing.

The main problem is the processor, as it is under extreme load while streaming. At the same time, he has to run the operating system, calculate the game, create and render the video for the stream, and upload the whole thing in real time. But your i5 is just too weak for that.

But if you now buy a new processor, you probably need a new motherboard (because of other socket) and thus a new RAM (since no more current motherboard supports more DDR3 but only DDR4).
Under certain circumstances, then a new power supply is needed because you pull more power.

If you are serious about streaming, you will need to invest at least 400 euro. And of course, install the hardware yourself (or you can do it and pay for it even 50-100 euro).

Unfortunately, I do not see another possibility…

I hope this helps.
