Streaming pc from console

[weaponranger]

Hello I am working on building a streaming pc for my friend. I don't know that much about steaming pc requirements she will be playing on Xbox or ps4 so I don't think she needs a gpu the on integrated graphics should work fine.price range is $500 to $1000 and she wants the el gato hd 60 pro and a i7 and one day maybe make it so she can edit her videos. But any parts or tips would be grate thx

If she's going to do video editing, trust me, she's going to need a GPU. A Quadro if she can afford it, but the lowest I'd go is an R9 380.

We need more infomation. What games are you going to be playing? Could you clarify exactly what you are doing? Are you streaming Media or Games? MOAR INFO

 

And I can tell you for a fact it is going to be more than 500 USD if you actually expect it to do anything usuful or give a playable gamming experience.

 

Are you building the PC youself or do you want a prebuilt one? Are you trying to stream from the PC to the xbox? Why not just sell the xbox, use it to buy a very high quality TV, then plug the PC into it.

No Quadro, Video edditing is not a priority as stated above. Quadros cannot game!!

It's a streaming and video editing machine, meaning gaming isn't a priority on it because OP's freind is streaming from console and later editing.

Ok, I get it, I miss-understood what you were trying to say, sorry. Check out this video, its a review on a GPU that may just be the pick for this build:

 

Quardro's are quite expensive, I think that if the above GPU is too underpowered, check out some higher end NVidia Cards or AMD cards (R9 Series\ 700 - 900 Series)

I will building it, and she will be twitch streaming games from the xbox 1 and ps4, right now the pc will just be used for managing the stream as in add overlays and modbots for it down the road looking at truning it in to a editing rig.
