I've tried streaming and got a few viewers, most i had at once was ~18 and that was when I walked away for a minute and my sister started talking to my viewers. maybe I should get a female friend to co-commentate...just need to find one first.
The only problem I could see is with slower GPU's, namely intergraded, the increased rendering could slow things down if there are a lot of things around. It should be customisable.
Sounds nice. It's not always nice to get into something by being grandfathered in but ok. Also I agree with spyrit about some larger channels might actually say yes. You wont know unless you ask.
I built my pc my self. CPU: Phenom II 965 @3.4(3.8 OC) GPU: 7770 @1020 mhz (1100mhz sometimes) RAM: 2X4GB 1333 mhz PSU: 530 watt semi modular HDD: 1TB 7200rpm Cooler: Corsair H80i Case: CM HAF 912 Total cost is around $500-600 and can keep the timer green until ~350 parts. I'll upgrade eventually but a car is more important right now.
This is the best way to do it. Just need to use some control parts to make it easier to control or just use it as a station core. Stuff like this will be nerfed a bit once money comes around.
