How funny, I was watching the 3 year old video on the same topic just two seconds ago saying, "I wish there was an updated video..." Thank you for this!!!

[@soundsOf75]

my only gripe was that the content was almost exactly the same. not much if at all was added like the title said "specs" but hardly any specs were shown.

[@MilesSantosTv]

same here.. done watching the late version of her video ehehe

[@ThatsLoyyfe]

Okay now explain it to me like I’m five and have only ever purchased MacBooks before

[@Willfitnezz]

Ok so say I have a RTX 3060 and an i5 13400F with 16 gigs of ram. If I upgrade to 32 gigs of ram, what difference will it make?

[@Hesiknife]

Better streaming Performance and better Multitasking

[@mcatoz3438]

16 gb is already focusing most of it work gaming. Imagine another 16gb ram gets added . It can do all the work easily

[@diamondpincushion2312]

Nice video! I found your logic very credible. Good Job. I came across this while looking for what to prioritize in a SECOND PC for streaming only (presumably with a capture card), while using a heavy GPU and CPU for gaming. If you can justify it I'd love to see your take on that "next level" topic.

[@BigXam]

This video just kind of beats everything around the bush with never answering anything solid. Yes, great these are all components for a pc great. what kind of specs do you need? The better the better is basically the video answer.

[@GhillieGilgan]

When streaming is 32 gigs of ram still the recommended when using DDR5?

[@SolemnVigil]

If you’re already buying DDR5 might as well take the 32gigs

[@blakedmc1989RaveHD]

i would say no less than 64gb

[@GhillieGilgan]

@@blakedmc1989RaveHD been streaming with 32 gigs of DDR5 for 4 months. Never had an issue. 64 is over kill it seems with DDR5 for now

[@blakedmc1989RaveHD]

@@GhillieGilganeh as i'm on AM4 Zen 3, 64gb is a no brainer especially when DDR4 prices are very cheap and Windows Usability is much smoother in 64gb of DDR4 in dual channel and DDR5 is way to expensive

[@itzMVPete]

Don't get latest Intel cpu

[@RaymondSamuray]

Lol, intel went from being the top G to bottom G

[@QueenNala487]

Lol why not ? What about a 13600k😂

[@aberobert7752]

Why

[@itzMVPete]

@@aberobert7752 intel aren't having the best of times

[@Rippitty]

I have the latest and it works flawlessly. The microcode is fixed and if you do not know how to optimize in your bios then get something with low power consumption.

[@BKB77780]

rtx 4060ti (16gb vram) i5 12600k can I pass the minimum required thing??

[@Wulfcross]

what about a dedicated stream pc? is dual pc still worth?

[@blakedmc1989RaveHD]

it is if u have a capture card which doesn't like resizable bar

[@mikio7256]

My streaimg pc is i7-8700 2060super and using 8000bitrate in obs, but I dont know why my stream look a little pixel when I moving. is the spec bad?

[@Synful_]

yes

[@arnoldarndth7925]

No

[@RowdySub]

defiantly use a powered usb hub. makes a huge difference.

Oh yeah. I defy conventional usb ports.

[@danb6120]

Can I stream with the asus rig strictly g16 165hz intel core i9 etc 4070 and 16 ram is that good for streaming while playing games ???

[@Sam_McCall]

It'll be fine for streaming. If you're just starting it's not a bad starting point. Just stream with what you can.

[@Loozel_gamer]

how do you tell how good a GPU is?

[@Zombiebrains24]

the rtx 4060 and amd rx 7600 gpus are baseline models while the 4090 and 7900xt are the higher end models

[@adamhaj3645]

You compare performance in well made reviews

[@ITSMETWIZZY]

I'm new to streaming looking for a streaming PC with a budget around 2000$ any suggestions???

[@Rassadd]

Hello there! Yes, I have one MB z790 gaming x by MSI or B760M or equivalent (its important to get a good motherboard) CPU i714700k or 15600kf (cheaper) GPU rtx 3060ti(minimum) rtx 4070 s(better) SSD 1gb (for OS and programs) HDD 1gb-4gb(if u want more space) RAM DDR5(do not by DDR4) 16gb minimum at 5200mhz, or 32gb at 6000mhz PSU 850W+80 gold (cheaper) better 1000w +80gold in case u purchase more powerful gpu( gold cuz ur system should function properly)

[@frostin8615]

I got a WAAAY better suggestion. I’ll type it in the reply to my comment

[@frostin8615]

MB: B650 GAMING PLUS WIFI €190 CPU: R7 7800x3D € 360 GPU: 7900xt €770 RAM: 1x32Gb DDR5 6000Mhz+ ≈€125 Cooler: Cooler Master MasterLiquid 360L Core €90 Choose any ATX Case that you like ≈ €120 You got €345 to spend on a good monitor, mouse, keyboard or whatever you want and it will perform WAAAAYY better than the suggestion you has previously. Lmk if you have any doubts or if you want to spend even more or cheap out a little bit.

[@yashukothapalli3285]

​@@frostin8615Great build sure but streams on nvdia cards r better but who m I to say and 16 X 2 GB ram sticks cuz y would u miss dual channel man

[@Hesiknife]

If you want something easy to use for 1k for amd if want more Features go dor nvidia but for a higher price my streaming pc has ryzen 7 5800x and a rx 6800

[@RlCHARDRANS0M]

What type of pc would I need if I game on the console and only need the to stream and not game on it

[@madmoonrabbit]

Way less, especially regarding GPU - since you don't need it. Good Ram and a decent processor will cover it for you. Simply encoding and vid capture - alongside an external capture card, is not a demanding process.

[@playyahh7336]

@@madmoonrabbitcan you elaborate more? Could someone get away with an i7 cpu without a gpu?

[@madmoonrabbit]

@@playyahh7336 In a dual stream setup using a console, absolutely yes - an i7 should do the trick (anything 4-core with enough ram will do the trick to be honest). The idea being - all the PC is doing is simply moving the video and audio signal already being sent to your display via an HDMI cable from your console - to your PC as well - via an external capture card. Then the PC will encode it (via OBS or whatever else you want to use) and send it to your platform of choice (twitch or whoever else). If you are recording that will be a bigger demand on your machine and permanent memory but you can still probably do it. The Graphics card will render your game's graphics when playing on the PC, so if you are playing on a console, it's your console doing all of that work. Hope that makes sense.

[@playyahh7336]

@@madmoonrabbit makes perfect sense. Thank you for the detailed information.

see the problem is i literally dont understand PC language idk what any of those things are im only 22 years old im not that old lmao

NOTE : IF U R NOT A BIG KZbinR and STREAMER DON'T WAST YOUR MONEY...

[@FearlessTruth1911]

Intel CPU's runs hot 🔥 and also have crash issues in few games. I would not recommend anyone to purchase Intel CPU's, they tend to be overvolted out of the box.

[@playdodgy995]

What a load of rubbish. How the hell is a cpu overvolted out of the box. Maybe you should blame motherboard vendors that use wrong bios settings. And go in to bios yourself . I am running 14900kf never goes above 50c. On water full overlock .

[@JoshXCVIII]

You’ve obviously just had a bad experience. Intel cpus are absolutely fine

[@toxyboi]

I think you're confusing Intel for amd. Amd always have ton of driver and bios issues. Intel does not. Please stop spreading false information amd fanboy
