I want to build a mini streaming PC

[Mark Kaine]

Using the Asrock mini,  I have a Ryzen 2200G laying around I could use and also 2x4GB DDR4 RAM 

 

What else do I need? 

 

Tbh I'm already struggling with the power supply,  is it included?  How do I get it if not? 

 

Do I need a streaming / capture card or is the Ryzen alone enough (it better be,  the whole point of this project would be to avoid using a capture card if at all possible) 

Note, this would be mainly used to record gameplay and not stream but I suppose the technical requirements are the same.

(I don't see no mention about power supply...)

Not sure what you mean by if the PSU is included? Are you buying these parts off of someone else or do you happen to have a MOBO, CPU and RAM with nothing else? If it's the former, you'll have to ask whoever you're buying from, and if it's the latter, then no PSU will be "included" and you'll need to purchase one of your own.

That is precisely my question tho.  So I should call Asrock? 

 

I've read several reviews BTW,  1 showed a PSU (external)  but no mention if included or not...

Quite sure its included. If not i'm sure they're quite affordable. But yes, give ASROCK a call. Always handy if unsure

I was hoping that,  but where'd you find that info?

I looked at the back of the case/pc. I saw that it used a charging type connector. Not the standard PSU connector.

Also, in specifications it says: 

Power Unit

- 120W/19V Adapter

Huh ok,  didn't see that thanks.

 

So the 2200G powerful enough to stream / record at 1080p?
