Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this but I am new to streaming and have noticed that my Mac Laptop is not very adequate for streaming. I was wondering if it is possible to get a desktop under $500 that will work decently well for streaming poker? I would prefer to buy through Amazon because I have gift cards.
You 100% can. I would build it yourself though. Go with a nice intel core i X processor with a nice built in GPU to save you money. Maybe check out a computer enthusiast forum like http://www.overclock.net/ and ask your question there, there are dudes there who spend all day trying to create the most powerful computers for dirt cheap, and I'm sure they have some up to date builds they are eager to share.
