Man is this processor the best bang for your buck or what. I can stream, i can play any game with a 5600XT at 1080p just fine, it just does everything. I think it's a bargain buy now but I really don't need to upgrade at all. Sure I could go for a 5800x3D but most games don't need that really.

Anyone else use this little gem? BTW that's Stream without a capture card and play the actual game as well and yes in 1080p.

Yeah, I've had it for a few years now. It seems like most games I play the processor is not even breaking a sweat. Albeit I only game at 1080p 60fps.

Current build:
Ryzen 5 3600
RTX 3060 12GB
32 GB DDR4-3200 RAM

It was a good budget CPU back when it came out, but it will get destroyed with more demanding games. Try playing Battlefield multiplayer at high frame rates and have it encode a stream at the same time. It would get murdered. It would also get murdered with ray tracing and path tracing heavy games.
