Hey everyone, i need a little help, not with the cost but more on what type of hardware to use. I am on the board of directors for a sporting club and we would like to stream the event we host each year, i am pretty computer savvy ( build and repair pc's) but i have been scratching my brain on this one. I need to be able to stream 4 feeds at the same time from obviously 4 different cameras but the problem i'm having, would i be able to get away using something like a ryzen 2700 or would i need more like a threadripper for that kind of stream? also i would like to stream at 1080p30 but preferably 1080p60. If im using OBS to broadcast over the net onto a custom website would an rx 580 8gb or better gpu be good enough or for that matter actually make a difference? tia

The 2700 and rx 580 will be fine for that

You should be fine. I did a 4k broadcast with a Ryzen 2600 and GTX 1060. I was also able to get one going but it stopped working after a couple minutes with a Pentium G2030 and no gpu.
