Streaming pc

[squidbird14]

My budget is 500 usd and I have a gaming pc but I want to get into steaming but i want a 2nd pc for it I have a case and the RAM for this build already Bc of upgrades I’ve done but I don’t know what other parts I need for a good 1080p or 720p 60fps stream for any game.

what gpu is needed for a 1080p stream?

Just stream on your existing PC? It's more than capable of handling it.

Put water on your GPU while playing a heavy load game, you'll be steaming in no time.

Internet won't get better with another PC.

And what does fish have to do with it?

Then you're not going to be streaming regardless?

I just wanna point out before anyone does this, this is a joke. Don't pour water on your GPU, that's how you kill components. 

 

Aside that, if your internet is terrible, you're not gonna be streaming in general. You're better off putting that $500 into upgrading your current computer, or towards getting a better internet plan (though that might not always be possible)

My Internet isnt terrible but i compete and team with east players teams so I usually get 70 plus ms servers and if I stream It’ll most likely double

twitch can't even do 1080p without looking bad and having artifacts, most people opt for 900p for twitch. But anyway, $500 isn't too much for a desktop unless you go with the absolute bottom tier stuff, and even a GT 1030 is 100+ new. 

 

Make sure your internet can handle it first, I'd shoot for a minimum of 10mbps upload from your ISP to livestream without noticeable lag at any decent quality. 

 

If your internet is fine, then I'd recommend heading over to facebook marketplace and buying a used gaming laptop or used computer. There are plenty of used 1650 laptops near me for around 500-600usd. Now you can use a USB capture card, or use NDI ethernet as your means of capturing.

So your goal is to stream. But if you stream you'll have a worse ping.

You do realize the circle you're in? E: It doesn't matter what you stream on, the connection is affected all the same. Just stream on your existing PC if you plan to.

No but thx

Can someone pls give me a build and not a dumbass solution Ik of, pls just answer my question 

[jetnoodles]

I don't think you understand. You will need a decent pc to stream on as well as capture card. A decent pc will start at around $850 with the current market

But...

I think this should be OK???
