So I noticed that when I streamed SC for JTV was chugging just a little bit which caused some people to not enjoy the stream as much. (Besides the commentating. =p) I'm not sure if it was JTV's fault or mine but I figure if I'm lagging at all Processor wise for just normal SC. It's time for an upgrade.

I'm trading in my AMD 64 Athlon X2 Dual Cores for this.

My generic junk Mobo for this.

And 4GB of DDR3 RAM.

I'm still on Windows Vista 32-bit but I'm working on getting Windows 7 64-bit.

I am should be more then ready to stream SC2 now. What are your guy's thoughts? I'm more curious about how Windows 7 will handle more then anything else. I've been reading mixed reviews.

Edit: Oh wow. Same thread going on in General about the same Processor I just bought. Crazy.

So wait? I'm bad? =(

You get that when the game comes out, so he has a few years.

I guess waiting for Nvidia 300 series wouldn't be a bad idea

I am currently using the GForce 8800+ GTS. It's a good card and will be just fine for SC2. In single player it might not be able to do all the flashy flashy but in multiplayer I'll be turning all that crap off so it'll be fine for streaming too.
So wait? I'm bad? =(

Get ATI 4870, it's the performance leader at the great price.
Oracle comes in, Scvs go down, never a miscommunication.
