Topic: Tripple Monitor gaming/recording Desktop Parts Posted: 10 Dec 2015 at 2:10am |
Budget:
$3000-$5000 CAD Expectations: I want a computer that can run three LG 34UM67 Ultrawide Monitors. Be able to record all three monitors and game at the same time. Usage: Recording/Gaming I personally am a complete noob to choosing PC parts so help is greatly appreciated. |

You're going to want the 12 GB VRAM of the Titan X for this configuration.
a) Try a video capture software that uses Intel Quicksync on the iGPU to unload some of the major encoding work from your other hardware. You can use something like Predator in MSI Afterburner or Open Broadcast Software for this. Here is a quick video on how to set up OBS to use Quicksync. or b) If that doesn't work, you may want to consider getting a dedicated hardware solution like: Avermedia, Hauppauge, or Elgato. I'm not sure if any recording device/service will do triple screen recording, you're going to have to look into that. Most I am aware of will only do a single 1920x1080 recording at the most.

keep in mind i have no personal experience with this myself, but i've read user opinions on this subject, and more than once i've read that capture cards work great when used in conjunction with consoles or another computer, however, if you're recording and playing off a single computer they don't really help. it's best just to go with HEDT procs (6 and 8 cores) and lots of vid card vram.
