2-in-1 Pro Streaming Pre-Buffer PC | CES 2016

2016-01-06
hey everyone I'm Steve from gamers Nexus Don net we were at cyber PowerPC suite at CES 2016 with the pro streamer two and one gaming PC before we get to that all of our CES coverage is brought to you by I by powers revolt 2 small form-factor gaming PC so the system we have here is a bit different it's using the fantex mini excel case that we've looked at previously and this case is really noteworthy only for one reason and that it's it's that it has two mounts for the motherboards so there's a mini ITX board at the top and then another board at the bottom where you can see there's a more substantial system setup so the top system in this pro streamer build that CyberPower is doing is running an aver media card streaming card in the back that's a capture card is only one PCIe slot so that's what's being utilized there and then the bottom the current set-up here for really demo purposes has to nine ATT is but more realistically what will be sold are the $1,800 SKUs and so there's four total SKUs $1,800 is the lowest and that one comes with a 970 for the GPU so the price is definitely a bit steep but you're paying for two systems so that's sort of the trade-off and the CPU on that one at the bottom with the 970 is an i5 6600 k the top is an i3 6363 21 of those and we already talked about memory with CyberPower so they have taken into account the fact that multi-channel platforms do actually benefit in render or streaming applications even though they don't do a whole lot for gaming as we've tested previously and in the even the lowest SKU it's all multi-channel and that should assist with rendering if anyone's doing YouTube content creation for example as we do so the pro streamer target market here is really for users who are trying to use OBS or xsplit to strengthen twitch and they encounter issues with stutter or juddering effects in the video as an artifact of the CPU load so heavy CPU load from xsplit to do all of that media processing live and export it to the Internet and because this is running two systems it's effectively the same as running an external system as you would do for FCAT or but OBS and pre buffering your render to twitch in this case it's it's that except in one box so that's really what's going on with the pro streamer builds as far as the efficacy how useful it is in real world it really depends on how serious of a streamer you are I suppose if you're trying to make a living off of it then you would want to creep out for your stream to ensure that there is a constant expected quality you're hitting the bitrate demanded because you're not going to be falling behind with the processing from heavy CPU load where games may demand it in the instance of sort of more casual or just having fun streamers something like this is definitely a bit overkill you can just stream fine on a single system but in the the higher tier class it's worth looking at a multi system configuration whether or not it's this particular pro streamer setup so that is the CyberPower pro streamer setup we'll be talking about this more in the future you can check out the article linked in the description below for more analysis talked about how all the streaming tech works how the capture card works out pre buffers and that'll all be in the article so check that out and if you like this coverage as always hit the patreon link in the post roll video thanks for watching we'll see you all next time
