[MEGATHREAD] Personal Computer - Updated builds thanks to Logical Increments

The memory dump isn't displayed on-screen anymore because you can get that and way more specific information from the error logs after the bluescreen. No reason to make a super over-complicated looking error screen that makes anyone who doesn't know exactly what they're doing completely confused.

My system is stable after uninstalling the AMD Catalyst driver, but that leaves me unable to play games. Uptime is 20 minutes, with the driver I was getting booted every 2 minutes.

I just put a ticket in with AMD, maybe they can feex.

Would my build be able to stream on Twitch and still play games at 1080p with reasonable fps?

[Yes]

I'm thinking i want to play tf2 or some random indie games
edit: my internet speed is in my sig

probably, I dunno about tf2 but when I played bl with my 8320 and streamed I got >45 fps @ 720

That build looks decent. You'd be able to play TF2 and your CPU could handle the streaming, but you have to make sure you have a nice modem and wired connection for any kind of good bitrate.

[Yes]

Because of the place of my computer I don't have access to a wired connection.
I can purchase an 802.11n wireless adaptor to get the same speeds but the connection isn't as reliable.
My dad won't let me run cables through the wall and I don't have any extra money to pay a guy to do it.

Kids: Don't ask your parents, just try it when they're not home.

Drill a small hole in your wall and run the ethernet through there. Be discreet and cover it up. ;3

Honestly there is very little loss from a strong wireless connection. I think what he was saying is to just make sure the upload speed your ISP provides you is sufficient (For streaming 1080p, you probably need about 3Mb/s upload at the very least).

[matthewbim11]

Look into PowerLine. It makes your existing power outlet cables transmit internet like a cat5 cable.
If you have that 5Mb/s upload on wireless, that's alright for streaming. You wont get max bitrate, but the quality will be decent enough. The connection isn't reliable as in it's cutting out intermittently?

Tear up the floor and pass the cable under it. Doesn't take a genius to know how to get around problems.

the cables could get seen underneath the ground
proposed the idea to dad about a year ago when i started saving up money

I was doing research on powerlining about a year ago and the idea wouldnt really work well for my house
we tried powerlining once and it was just terrible. my dad installed ethernet in some locations in our house
and wont do any more

edit: it sometimes fluctuates but it is pretty much constant. we get lower speeds on wireless tho
