Is this good for gaming and streaming videos?

It is a good motherboard for gaming and streaming videos. I mostly do streaming, but it also depends on the processor (I use an AMD A10), with 8 Gb of RAM DDR3, and also a Radeon 6670. So, it is pretty decent performance, but I think I would look for more muscle to do intense gaming.

It's a dang fine mobo all the way around. Streaming will of course depend on your ISP's abilities.

I don't play games but it is supposed to be average on game performance. With quad core processor, 6G RAM and a fairly good video processor you should be OK. I use for Netflix and Youtube and the download and video performance is great. No problems whatsoever.

I would recommend another graphics card the onboard graphics will ok but watching youtube on 1080p smoothly will be rough.. Depending on your cpu

I would say No. It does not have a fast enough processor refresh rate for this. This is geared for games apps AND Games preloaded. And super light Internet surfing.

yes. i use it as a both a home theater for movies/ tv shows in 1080p and as a gaming rig. Works like a charm. I haven't overclocked it either

not if you expect to do any graphics or game playing. the bandwidth is not sufficent and it is not driven by your graphics card.

I don't know. I bought this for a friend of mine and he plays Skyrim on it. That is pretty video intensive, so my guess is that it would probably handle most of what's out there.

Yes! Yes you can. I use it and obs to stream to twitch. It is a fairly easy streaming solution that I recommend!

I'd have to say NO from the information I got from my 14-years old son. He tried to play a game called Dragon Age and it's a "no go" (his words). You have to keep things in perspective because the specs is clearly not for heavy gaming. It's a fine PC to be attached to the back of an LCD and used as a productivity machine, or to the back of a living room TV as an HTPC, but it's not for heavy gaming. Using it as a media-consuming HTPC, it can play all my local video files, including 4K.

Yes, works great. Motherboard doesn't make a huge difference for games though really -- get a nice video card, plenty of RAM and CPU and you're good.

I think if your just using it for video media you would be fine but for most online gaming this card would be a little dated, hope this helps

This laptop has Integrated Intel HD Graphics. If you will be using this for heavy gaming and video streaming, it will do the job because of the Intel i5 Processor, perhaps this will help >> http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1686074/intel-graphics-4000-gaming.html. I'd recommend for you to check out different community Forums and see what others have to say. Hope this helps.

Absolutely. We use ours on a wireless LAN to stream and play all kinds of internet games and this thing is a beats. It handles high res HD video gaming and stream without a problem. i7 intel processor is the best you can get on this type of system.

Get a PC with at least an HDMI connector and an i3 or Processor minimum and youshould be ok with these two as the rest of the hardware should be fast enough HDMI connector is required for streaming to a HDTV via HDMI cable your pc should be able to stream no problem

Absolutely, I use it almost exclusively for gaming :P Most gaming consoles will pick it up by default, as well. Streaming from the PS4 using the Blue Snowball is a dream.

Yes, its still worth it, its still I awesome piece of hardware. I personally dont really use the game streaming feature a lot, but I love the attention it gets me in public. People are always like wow what are you playing on.
