Hi!

I am thinking to get a Zen Book Duo and I was wondering if anybody has got it and runs OBS.

I know MX450 doesn't have NVENC and I wonder about the OBS CPU/GPU impact on the machine.

One alternative I am considering is to go full on with a ASUS 14" ROG Zephyrus G14 Ryzen 9 4900HS loaded with a 2060, which I am confident won't sweat.

I don't use OBS for gaming streaming, rather as a virtual camera to compose scenes to make online facilitation more interactive. I love I can build whatever I need in OBS. I do live sketches (via a tablet connected via BT), timers, share music via voicemeeter. On desktop it's all good, but on my laptop (an i5 from 2017 with an integrated iris card) CPUs are always at 100%.

Thanks in advance for your replies!
Enrico
