Hey kind people, i'm looking for a bit of help. Very soon i'm going to be creating a no expense spared streaming room, those new 4k 240/1440p 360 hz oled's are looking like the way to go for me at least for now, The issue im envisioning is if i use my 2 pc setup how would i capture the game from my gaming pc and send it to my streaming pc without having the option of a hdmi capture card (i dont know of any that offer 240hz 4k passthrough. and id be using display port in that instance) Does anyone have any potential solutions for this. I dont mind purchasing an expensive hdmi matrix if theres any that offer that (it may be beneficial if i do co streams with people coming to my house i can put second pc in the matrix as well) or is there a simpler option like mirroring the screen to a hdmi port on the graphics card (Hoping it wouldn't cost performance) Apologies for the long winded post. I appreciate your help

(Just grabbed one but there is plenty of tutorial information out there for help setting it up).

Or, just ditch the idea of multi-PC streaming and do it all in one, much less of a headache.

If you're playing any first person shooter games then stick to a 240Hz 1440P OLED. Intel cpu + Nvidia gpu so that you can use Nvidia NVENC. Get a cheap RTX 4060 for your streaming PC.

Most all your Warzone youtubers (streamers) use this card while gaming with a 240Hz monitor.
