I've noticed some others saying wait until Black Friday. That is not an option. I would like to order in the next couple of days.

Just curious. What's the importance of a high end video card for this particular task?

To stream and monitor video it will require a high end video card. Video cards aren't only useful for gaming :)


Nobody want to do this build?

Do I have to offer fg? :bouncy:

It actually doesnt require really ANY power to just monitor a security feed.

I also am confused why you need a high end card.

Probably should ask the people who are installing the camera system, we don't even know how many cameras you have.
