Hello,
To cut to the chase, me and my girlfriend love gaming and streaming. We've been wanting to do a dual stream for awhile now and we both aren't big tech people so we don't know how this would work. We both play on consoles(xbox and ps4) and as of now have one pc(not the best but gets the job done for streaming). Inside the PC is a ElGato HD60 pro, now the only way I see how a dual stream would work for consoles is to get one MONSTER pc and install two ElGato capture cards(one connecting to our own separate consoles) and then adding those two separate capture cards in the OBS software. Now first question : Is this the ONLY way to do so? If that is the only way to do so, what type of specs are recommended for a PC to be able to run two capture cards, two webcams, overlays/effects, without any lag at good quality? Thanks
P.S currently looking into buying a pc these are the specs, would this be able to run 2 ElGato Capture cards, 2 webcams with good quality and no lag?
PC SPECS:
Cooling Fan:
CRYORIG H7 Quad Lumi RGB
Motherboard:
MSI Z370 GAMING PRO CARBON AC
Graphics Card:
MSI GTX 1070 ARMOR 8G OC
CPU:
Intel Core i7-8700K 6-Core 3.7 GHz
Power Supply:
Seasonic Focus Plus 750W Gold
RAM:
G.SKILL TridentZ 3000 MHz (32GB)
