So, I have a 12900k/3090. 7 concurrent streams are totally doable on my system. Although, it requires that I use faster presets than I normally use. Anyway, down & dirty. A 13th or 14th gen 700k or 900k along with a 4070TI or better GPU will give you (3) hardware encoders. (2) NVENC & (1) QSV. You'll be able to stream 1080p/60fps without compromise. I would also get 64GB of RAM.

If all the streams you plan on sending are the same content, resolution, ect. Then only (1) encode is actually needed. A service can be used but may cost $$ or you can use the Multi-RTMP output plugin to send the stream to the 2nd -7th channels without the need to run an encode for each. Just set the Audio & Video encoders in the Multi-out for each channel to "Get From OBS".

Crushed it!
Notes:
I'm still running Nvidia Driver 522.30 so I'm currently limited to (3) concurrent NVENC encode sessions. With the release of driver 551.23, (8) encode sessions are possible. YMMV
QSV was 65% utilized (4 concurrent encodes) & NVENC was around 60% (3 concurrent encodes).
All memory leaks are from the Multi-RTMP output, not sure if it's been fixed in the most recent releases.
NVENC Update: All Nvidia GeForce Cards Quietly Updated to 8 Encoding Sessions - Stream Guides
Nvidia released Game Ready Driver 551.23 on January 24 to support the new RTX 4070ti Super graphics card and add new features like the RTX Video HDR enhancement. What wasn't reported in the changelog for the driver update was an increase to the number of possible NVENC encoder sessions, bringing...
