Minimum ram for streaming 720p 60 fps?

So I Stream with a i7 2600 and a gtx 1060 3gb but I only have 8gb of ram ddr3 1066 (my upload speed is 11 so I stream at 6k bitrate) is my ram to little for streaming fortnite(1080p playing 720p streaming) and getting a 60 fps stream and gameplay on medium low settings?

8gb is technically enough, but you can literally just test it to see if the lag is acceptable for you.  It depends on your internet too, and I'd assume you'd be fine, but just check.

Try using the PSU Tier List!

Personally, I'd get 16gb - ddr3 is relatively cheap - but it should be fine with 8gb

Yeah def go 16 if you can, but if its something like 2x4 and money is an issue, then go for 3x4gb

Its fine. Streaming doesn't take that much RAM. Your bitrate is overkill for just 720p and you probably can increase game details too.
