So basically what im asking is that doesn't duplicating your screen to your streaming pc increases the usage of your gaming PC's gpu? So how is it more efficient as your gaming PC's GPU is gonna work harder then just streaming it off the same device. I mean i don't really know if duplicating your screens effects fps but yea. Unless my understanding of setting up a dual PC streaming set up is wrong pls educate me hahahhaaha. Because i realized my gaming GPU working harder when dual pc streaming as compared to single PC streaming.

I need some recommendations for capture cards for dual streaming PC setups. I have watched a few videos and have some contenders in mind, however I would like to know based of experience from those who have/has used capture card in such a setup, and what you experience has been. aka, Which companies software/hardware worked better for your circumstances Please don't post if you have nothing of value to add to this thread OR you don't have experience with said products. I appreciate advice, but this time, advice based of knowledge and experience please.

Hey all, I have a problem with HD 60S Plus. I want to use Dual PC Setup. My monitor (Main PC) has DVI and VGA ports. I am using DVI to HDMI cable to the my graphics card. My graphics card have 3 DP and 1 HDMI port. So for Elgato, i bought DP to HDMI (not active) cable (converter). When i plug these, my monitor seems black. Also i tried to use DP to HDMI for Elgato. nothing change. Do i need Active DP to HDMI converter? Pictures >

First time on the forum with a rather basic question: In the atteched picture (https://imgur.com/a/MrIgTPu) you can see how I imagine this setup. It´s fine if only one of the monitors is able to output at 144Hz. Can somebody give me a tip on where to find something like that? Thanks in advance! https://imgur.com/a/MrIgTPu Edit: added imgur link for picture

Budget (including currency): $1800-$2200 Country: U.S.A. Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Overwatch, lot of random multiplayer games off of steam, learning some coding, video editing, 3d modeling Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): So, I had the intention to build a new PC for myself in 2021, in the Phanteks P500A DRGB. Then, when it arrived early off of backorder, I found out that it can fit not just an ATX system, but also an ITX system mounted inside the top. So now instead of leaving a spare PC around for my LAN parties, I'm going to just have a (albeit not exceptionally powerful) spare pc inside my main one! I'm really hoping to find some advice for thermal management and overall tips on a dual-PC setup. The rough goal for each system: ITX system (*based mostly off of hardware I already have) CPU: Ryzen 5 3600* Motherboard: Aiming for B550, with 1 or more m.2 slots RAM: 16gb 3600Mhz CL16* GPU: RX570 8gb* Boot Drive: 1tb NVME storage* Bulk Storage: 4tb+ HDD space ATX system CPU: Ryzen 7 5800 Motherboard: Aiming for B550, with 1 or more m.2 slots RAM: 32GB 3600Mhz CL16 GPU: Asus TUF RTX 3080 or something from AMD's line Boot Drive: 1tb NVME storage Fast Storage: 2tb of SSD storage Bulk Storage: 4tb+ HDD space*

Good evening! So i got today my elgato hd60s and i pretty fast figured out how to connect it to my dual pc setup, first i connected the hdmi cable to my gaming gpu then the other half to my elgato (in port) then i connected the usb to my streaming pc from elgato. Now i got it all done. Then i went to display settings and got the display showing on obs perfectly, but here comes the problem, for some reason i cant get the audio going through from my gaming pc?! Also i saw that when i connect the usb which came with the elgato to my streaming pc it says that windows cant recognize the usb and it might not work correctly... im using windows 10 64 bit in both pcs so that cant be the problem. Is there anyone who could help me with this? Thanks.

Introduction: Hi, I'm a passionate console gamer who also enjoys to stream. I currently don't own a Microsoft computer, because I was moving all the time in the past eight years. Right now I am streaming on a Macbook Pro mid 2016 edition, which isn't that great. I was very limited with software as well as hardware back, when I decided to go for a Macbook. At the time I was playing in a band and recorded a ton of stuff (I already have a lot of recording gear, which is why I decided to give streaming a shot). In the past few months I discovered that there are many of my friends who enjoy playing with me, but also want to chat. That is why I started streaming my game footage and do some commentary and interaction via chat. My idea for the build is that I want to go with a dual system in one casing. I'm worried because my deskspace is a bit limited so I can't go with two cases. Budget (including currency): Budget is about 1500 Euros, but I want to primarily focus on the streaming unit first since my main focus for streams would be console games. Country: Austria, no not Australia. Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: I would use the streaming unit of the build mainly for twitch streaming and game recording. The gaming unit should primarily focus on playing games like Dota2, Rogue Company, Valorant and ESO. Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Would be nice if I could play the games mentioned above in a good resolution. I don't plan to play anything in 4k, but 920p 144 fps would be nice. I researched a ton about the parts needed for this build. I first started with thinking about going with two systems side-by-side. And then I just recently discovered a video that mentions dual computers in one casing. That was when I was like "perfect. That's me." So I looked up some stuff, but don't know for sure, if this would even suit my situation. I don't know much about the parts that would go well with what I have in mind, because I'm kinda fixated on a case I have seen. Height is not a problem. It's more width and depth dependent for my setup. So the case I had in mind was the tower 900 from Thermaltake. But I don't know if it would suit a dual computer build. Do you guys have any suggestions on what kind of casing would be suitable other than Phantek's casings? Would love to get some ideas. Thanks in advance

Hi, So I want to do a dual pc streaming setup however I'm complete noob and need to know how to set up the audio, preferably without a mixer if possible. The goal is for viewers to be able to hear all my game/windows sound as well as hear what I'm saying on team-speak. I understand I'm going to need two microphones, I want to use a blue yeti as the mic the stream hears and then my hyperx cloud 2 microphone for ingame/teamspeak as I'm going to be playing csgo. I need to know what I need in terms of splitters and what not to achieve this, also bare in mind the hyperx cloud 2 only has one audio jack for both mic and sound which goes straight to usb. Any help would be very much appreciated, okay thanks.

For some reason now when I open up streamlabs Obs my cpu usage skyrockets to 100% utilization and I'm not even streaming yet. I don't know what to do and why my cpu is going crazy like that. I run a dual pc setup as well, as soon as I close streamlabs obs my cpu usage goes back down to 5%. Keep in mind before even when streaming my cpu usage never went that high at all.
