The 7600 might struggle a little recording and gaming at the same time. It'll depend on the games though and how many cores they require/request.

You can use the Nvidia GPU to stream, if that's what you're after. You can also record using the GPU, but you won't get the same levels of control.

I'm guessing you're looking to game, record the gameplay and then edit with Adobe? It should do OK, if you're happy using the GPU recording features.

It won’t, that’s what is being said. 6 cores will do gaming alone, even then you should be looking at 8 cores
The main game I record on the pc is football manager

The others I play I get on console so if I using the console to record other games does that change things and that this pc will be ok as long as I'm just gaming on high demanding games not recording aswell ?

Yeah the main game I record is football manager

I rarely record high demanding pc gamed if I get them on pc I would just be playing not recording
If I was going to record them I would get the game on console and record using elgato if that makes sense

Also didn't realise pcspecialist offer finance so what do I need to be able to play and record in 1440p and keep the cpu cool

The minimum build I need from the one posted earlier today would be fantastic

What about this spec gone foe a much higher cpu

Given I'm getting a full refund I can afford up to a price of 2,000

Issue I can see without having much knowledge on pc specs is I'm over doing it on the cpu and may need a different cooling system

I can't help on the streaming whilst gaming I'm afraid, as it's not something I've ever considered.

But the 7800x3D is the best CPU for gaming...period. The 7900 will be slightly better for video.

Ok so the spec I have posted can you alter the quote to show what cpu I need to record 1440p and play it at the same time if possible

Assuming you'll be using the GPU for the streaming overhead, then the 7800x3D would be fine. The 7900 would only be suggested if your Premiere work is as/more important than gaming...as the extra cores will give you about a 20% boost to overall performance...and you'd need a better cooler as it's a much hotter CPU.

The 3D V-Cache in the 7800x3D is what gives games the extra boost despite having only 8-cores vs the 12-cores of the 7900.

This is your build with the 7800x3D swapped in, but then you'd still want a better air-cooler or an AIO, As the more powerful Deepcool tower cooler is not currently available you'd be looking at another £100 to add the Corsair H100i 240mm AIO cooler (wouldn't recommend the PCS AIO coolers).

Hi

I'm ordering a new pc soon and I'm getting a liquid cooler the one I'm currently being advised to get is

CORSAIR iCUE H100i ELITE CAPELLIX XT RGB High Performance CPU Cooler

I'm reading lots of people saying the noise on these is very loud I'm getting a ddr5 ram pc so need a liquid cooler apparently due to space

So just wanted anyone who has had experience with these to tell me about:

General noise
How to maintain liquid cooling
