You will be fine. hardware wise there are streamers that use way less quality equipment to stream and are famous (will speak about this more), in terms of your internet. 5mbs is fine if you do not share with a lot of ppl that use upload, as twitch only allows 3.5mb MAX anyways. a lot of big time streamers still only do 720p30 for streaming and record in the background at 1080p30. with what you have you should be fine as long as you get over 30 fps and are streaming/ recording at 30fps the viewers wont normally be able to tell. but at that equipment you should run better than that even when recording/streaming
