[Build Help] i7 necessary for 1080p gameplay capture?
Author Summary

Post Body

Hello. I am going to be building a PC with a budget of $1300 and was wondering if it is worth it to opt for the I7 instead of an i5 for game recording and a bit of editing? Also any other suggestions for my build would be great!

Thank you!

Edit: wow forgot to add my specs.
