Hi All,
I know this has been asked a thousand times, but I will admit, I'm a simpleton lol. I've thought about streaming for a while but I knew enough to know that my current comp just wont cut it at all, So I ordered a new computer (it was time to upgrade anyway) and I want to be able to get into streaming, so to get a head start for when all the parts arrive on Thursday I was wondering what some good settings to use would be for when the big day gets here, a little theory before practice so to speak, What kind of quality might I expect 720p etc, best kind of bitrate for my current connection 500, 100, 1500 and so on and so on, so here's all whats going to be in the new rig:
