Hey guys,

I'm kinda new to the community and also streaming. I was wondering if any of you guys would be able to let me know if my laptop would be Okay to stream/record live gameplay. I mainly play Advance Warfare competitively

Console: Xbox One
Laptop: Lenovo T420s
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2520 CPU @ 2.50GHz 2.50GHz
Installed memory (Ram): 8.00 GB
System type: 64-bit Operating System
Capture Card: Elgato HD60

Any help or advice is much appreciated, If there is anything I need to upgrade let me know. Or would you guys recommend a different CPU for streaming let me know.

I would guess that your CPU is going to struggle with the encoding but I am not sure... do you already have your capture card? If so, you could just try a few settings and see how it goes...

Yes I have the capture card, I did a test last night on Twitch TV. It seems to be working fine, however the audio isn't syncing up with the game play. I adjusted the settings but I noticed I can't hear myself talking and when I do it's very faint. Also, there is some weird noises the audio basically cuts in and out.

I also forgot to mention that I use...

Webcam: Logitech C910
Headset: Turtle Beach X12's

I'm not sure if I need to purchase another headset such as Astro A40's with the mixamp. As well as a USB mic for speaking to twitch audience.
