Question / Help Streaming DayZ w/ i7-6700k, HD 7950, 16GB DDR4 at 1080p60fps

With the specs below, what settings do you recommend for streaming DayZ? I am hoping to get 1080p60fps, but not sure if that is possible since DayZ is very intensive.

CPU: i7-6700k 4.20 Ghz
GPU: Gigabyte HD 7950 Boost 3 GDDR5
RAM: 16GB DDR4 3000mhz Patriot
Mobo: MSI Z170A PC Mate
OS: Windows 10 Professional 64-Bit

Honestly, what will be more of a harder pull is your internet connection, to sent through a high enough bitrate for 1080p60 to look nice.

Most likely you won't. What FPS do you get now without streaming or recording? Your computer in general looks good though, maybe not the GPU.

Do you have the available bandwidth for it? A minimum of 10mbit _upload_ would be required. Where do you plan on streaming? If Twitch and you're not partnered, then no. Youtube probably would be fine, not sure about the other services.

EDIT: I did watch some DayZ 0.6 videos earlier, and the performance seems just as horrible as it has ever been, making it even more unlikely to actually get some good 1080p60 streaming going should the other criteria be met.
