I'm planning on buying a new rig at some point to do live streaming on youtube that will be utilising two microphones (razr's) and probably 4 webcams (all logitec 920's) possibly 5 if this is remotely feasible. My question is, what would people recommend to set this up? Plus points on machines already setup thatI could purchase but not completely adverse to building if required...

Cheers for any suggestions!

thanks for that I'll take a look, assuming I can set it all up is there a recommended graphics card requirement for what I want to achieve or is it more about RAM and processor power?

Oddly that article linked seemed to suggest that OBS is a good tool to use for multi webcam setups, which is what I was intending :/

Yes, as long as they are not the same type...The C922 is much better for more then one cam but the C920 uses the same driver ..
Play with it and see how it goes...That's what I did..

Yes, they will both work but you will only be able to control one..Like zoom, focus etc...

Ah right I see! Im not so phased about that, the setup I intend to use will all be fixed and any camera manipulation will be physically moving things around so thats not an issue. Im mostly trying to work out what kind of powered rig I'd need to stream 4 cameras, right now when I try streaming one on my mac it sounds like its going to blow up the rate the fan goes to!
