Good for Gaming/Streaming?

I used my old pair for gaming all the time and after a good long 8 years they are ready to be replaced and I am replacing them with the exact same model...

Not sure! My grandson uses them on my computer and another pair on his computer at school!

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.

Probably not because it's a laptop with a laptop processor. I would recommend a desktop with At least a 3.0 GHz clock speed processor and 8 GB of ram for smooh streaming. If you want to stick with a laptop though you can go with a higher end procesor. I would get at least an Intel i5 with good clock speed and 4 to 6 GB of ram is enough to stream but I'd recommend 8 if you can afford it. Higher end games will require more than lower end ones so keep that in mind. Hope this gives you a direction at least.

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.

This motherboard is not meant for gaming. Its more of a HTPC, streaming, and web surfing board

I personally bought a tablet just so I could view Netflix and YouTube on my tablet. I'm terribly sorry for the late response but in short, yes it does. However, since it is a quadcore it specializes in 3D gaming and multitasking. Seeing as streaming is a single task, I would recommend a dual core unless you are like myself and like to have open your paper as well as iFunny :) and a browser at the same time.

Oh yes. Definitely good for games. I play TF2, Minecraft, Tekkit, and various other steam games. They all run great. For the price this is definitely the best gaming laptop out there. I actually got it for 375 (not including tax) at Best Buy as an open box deal! I suggest looking there.

Yes, this should do more than fine for gaming. I own it and haven't had any problems.

Do not use it for gaming. The input lag is atrocious and you can't disable the post processing to make it respond faster to your input. Impossible to play fast twitch games.

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.

My honest opinion is if you are spending the amount of money you are for that motherboard I wouldn't cheap out in the video card. I think GeForce video card would be better as it has built in video streaming programming into it for twitch.tv ect but I do not know all of the specs of the new geforces. This video card is pretty good. Modern day mother boards come with pci express slots that are universal to all gpus there isn't any difference to my knowledge from pci express 2.0 and 2.1 other then bickering from amd and nvidia.

I use it for gaming. I have played Tribes Ascend, Trine 2, Starcraft 2, and the latest Elder Scrolls game. It is great. Folks have said that there is an input delay, but I don't really notice it. It is amazing. Make the jump. You will not regret it.I would highly recommend pairing it up with a adjustable desk mount (Ergotronics). I use SLI 460s and have not had any issues so far.

I have not tried, but I would not recommend it for gaming. I played some older games on it, and they had some lag ...

I've had absolutely no problems with this motherboard. I use it for streaming in 1080p for hours a day. Just make sure you install the drivers from the maker's website before use!For more video compression and audio editing, this thing is perfectly fine. Not exactly a powerhouse, but it doesn't stutter.

Yes it is great for gaming, i got it with the rampage IV extreme, the rampage IV Black would be also great. Those are the best x79 mb out there so far.

Streaming from where? That has more to do with bandwidth. However, if you mean the screen resolution, I have no complaints.

Yes this is quality product for streaming and recording the only thing I would add would be a video card for gaming graphics which for playing games you always should
