Joseph Pignataro That is when I recommend getting a mixed reality headset off Amazon for about $200 before they go up in price, setting it up for steam VR, and playing VR chat.
i gotta do that and get a VR weifu lol
Yeah VRchat gives me life

When setting up my streaming PC it gave me a lot of hassle and research to do.
At first I thought "huh, I have an Elgato HD60 Pro in my main rig, and spare PC parts from upgrades... let's make a streaming PC!"
In my head, using the HDMI from my main PC to the capture card, then using the HDMI output on the capture card to my monitor would be the least of the issues. I am getting a video signal, and it's recording it so what could go wrong?
Well here's a list of things I researched and eventually fixed:
- I want my mic plugged into my main rig, and to talk to my friends on Discord through my main rig.
- Having desktop audio split to my headphones AND the second rig.
- Using the HDMI output on the capture card locked me to 60fps (when I use a 144Hz monitor) and introduced noticeable input lag.
- Using a dedicated HDMI to the capture card, and two cables plugged straight into the monitor. How would I duplicate the DisplayPort and HDMI to the capture card and keep audio?
- Using RDP prevented me from using an external 3.5mm aux in and optical in. And I wanted to keep RDP because it allowed me to stream my mic natively while plugged into my main rig.
- Creating the least hassle possible (i.e. using only 1 mouse and 1 keyboard for both rigs, file transfers, and generally making it seamless and quick).
- Fixing x264 lag on an i7 6700k which is more than powerful to handle x264 at 1080p 60.
- Getting video, audio (mic and desktop duplicated), and file transfers to all be duplicated to both systems with no fuss or pre-setup.
It took a bit, but I can now happily just turn on my streaming PC, launch a remote desktop and stream straight away with NO side effects. I can record videos and access the file instantly on my main rig. If anyone is having ANY issues with setting up a second rig just leave a reply. :)
i cant get my sound to go into the capture card trough hdmi to stream in obs thats my only problem left
And i managed to make the elgato 4k60pro wokr with my ultrawide for both gaming and streaming the video output its just the sound that im stuck for obs
@@rast4man2.05 use Stereo Mix in sound setting and set it to tha signal u're sending it out to
Brother, i have been streaming straight from my ps4 dor 2 years now and i have very good Internet speed and ping
But i want to play different games while I'm streaming so, i have been trying to get a pc for 500
The thing is i won't be gaming on the pc, so my existing laptop can't render fast paced games like apex, plus i didn't have an elgato hd60 then, so
What are the least specs i need to consider just to run the elgato through obs or whatever
Plus i would like to do minor edits on the computer

No mentions about internet connection? That is one biggest things you need other than a good CPU.
This was exactly my thought too XD
@ 3:48
@@chunkylover5367 that's bitrate lol not internet speed
Brennan Browley bitrate is the measurement of data transfer, and in this case it’s referring to how much of your internet upload bandwidth you allocate for the twitch stream.
For the dedicated streaming rig. Does the CPU need integrated graphics. I wanna build a streaming PC using the AMD ryzen 2700KX and hook it up to my xbox using a capture card.
OBS also released their NDI plugin which lets you stream over LAN directly to another machine and use that to encode. Way easier than getting the NVENC thing going.
i'd rather go tha true and trying capture card method
IT FINALLY HAPPENED. LMG VIDEO RENDERED AT 60 FPS
Petar Čotić didnt notice when they uploaded the xbox one x video? Allready there they uploaded it in 60fps
Made no difference to the video. Wouldn't surprise me if it was 30 fps converted to 60fps, like they did before as a test and nobody caught on to it.
Tetra Sky they rendered it in 60fps to demonstrate the 60fps gameplay they used as footage.
Petar Čotić the animations look 60fps but I'm not sure about Linus's camera
It still looked looks like a slideshow to me, probably only some of it is actual 60 fps and the rest is just converted.
Just spent the better part of the week setting up a 2nd pc for streaming. Would love to see a multipart about exactly which obs settings to use. Would be nice to include streaming audio between pc’s via vban
This is very helpful, thank you 🖤

+Techquickie Using NVENC to send the video signal to another computer on your LAN to transcode it there to a streaming bitrate is indeed a good option to avoid a capture card. But: What is the recommended setup here? As far as I can tell, you need an RTMP server to receive the pre-compressed content on the transcoding machine (e.g. Nginx with RTMP module) if you want to get the signal back into OBS, transcode and transmit to Twitch or whatever service. Are there other options, like using FFMPEG for transcoding? Both options kind of worry me, because I have no clue how reliable it would be. When I tested a low latency setup with Nginx as RTMP relay, OBS lost the incoming stream quite easily in case of a CPU spike or other events that occur every now and then. Or the latency varied each time. Additional latency in general is a huge problem IMO. Twitch is currently rolling out a low latency option and I've seen streams with 2.3s of total delay to broadcaster. If transcoding adds like 5 extra seconds because of buffers on both sides plus encoding and network, then that is not really a good alternative to an internal capture card and a powerful CPU to do everything on a single machine.
No mention about needing a good internet connection? My 0.6mbps upload obviously won't cut it
Lol my download is 0.5 to 0.6mbps and upload is 0.1 to 0.2 . Downloading gtaV takes 3 days and I consider 40 ms ping as low and 50 to 70 is average
all u r lozers! i have 70000000 terabits upload!
well linus did say what PC and not what Internet speeds

Nothing you say applies in Pakistan. Here normal users get 2Mbps and heavy users have 4Mbps connects at a whopping 25$ per month. If you want 10 Mbps or above you have to pay a minimum of 100$ and a hefty setup cost. Those who have 4Mbps have a practical upload rate of 0.5Mbps. We literally live in the Dark ages thanks to bureaucrat and bossy generals running the show. Even the in-charge of IT and ICT Ministry in Pakistan is a lawyer and not an Engineer or business executive for that matter (and a women to add to our woes). Would you believe that ?
You can still capture and store your game over a LAN and upload it later :)
Allah doesn't like pakistan to stream then

Can you guys do an update for streaming PCs that includes options for plugging in 1/4inch or xlr mics or off loading capture and transcoding to a separate card? Or is that silly now with high core count CPUs being the norm and decent USB mic options?
I was asking for more content related to streaming a while ago , but really really really this is not the way. WHAT are you talking about ? Dual PC Set up ? Shadow Play ? It really does look like this video was brought to us by INTEL.
Forget about 1080p 60fps (actually , what the hell) and forget about your second PC dedicated to streaming only. Throw some benchmark from some games that are ANY relevant on twitch (was that Atila total war ? are you guys kidding me) and FORGET ABOUT shadow play (one button does it all means no way to tweak the output)
FOR BEGINNERS : Dual ENCODING setup: H.264 (CPU intensive but crispy , 3500 kbps tops) for anything that is not CPU intensive and NVENC (here you can go up to 6500kbps with no meaningull performance impact ) for everything else (PUBG ,OW ,DOTA2,LoL) (set up on OBS Studio ,forget , AGAIN about Shadow Play)
This is how I've been streaming for over 2 years. No upgrades needed before hand. Everything I know comes from something I read on the internet and my own testing. This video feels rushed AF
(I still love y'all , but stop telling people they need to expend money to start to do something when they dont and the video is not even sponsored by any of thse companies.)
TW: Atilla is actually one of the games I've watched the most streams of lately... It's beaten by Hitman, but I think it still holds second place. Don't assume there are no people who watch streams of games other than competitive shooters.
I tried streaming Overwatch on my Acer VX5 (i7 7700HQ, GTX 1050Ti, 16GB of RAM. Yeah, not the most ideal setup but I wanted to see how it'd go). Capped fps at 70 not to stress the CPU, software encoding was terrible even on low (~3000kbps) bitrates. When I switched to NVENC encoding it was flawless even on Twitch's max quality (6000kbps). I mean, it's an entry level GPU beating the crap out of one of the most powerful laptops CPUs whilst running a game, what gives?
11/10 people who watch this are non-streamers
Man I stream... at least I used to before Jtv shutdown.
ummmm
No shit, it's saying what you need to start stream
i stream 🤚🏼
You can completely transcode with your GPU, for those who has a 4 core CPU and struggles with streaming. As long as you have a GPU better than a 1050 ti, depends again what you want to stream. Usually games like Fortnite, CS:GO, Overwatch, League of Legends can be streamed on a 1050 ti, but it will be quite hard for the GPU, so get at least a 1060 or an RX 570 or better.
All you need is a smartphone in Pakistan. You can't get more than 0.5 Mbps upload unless you are a rich kid or run a business. Anaush Rahman are you listening?
All you need is to not live in Pakistan.

You can use nvenc on OBs to stream with minimal overhead. Doing so only uses 5% cpu and 5-10% GPU instead of making it CPu only at 25% on a 4 core 8 thread processor. Trust me I know. People complain nvenc quality is poor but it is pretty decent on the GTx9 and GTx10 series
All this talk about 6+ cores and separate dedicated streaming PCs... and I just use ShadowPlay. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
@PhyZeik Both with nvidia and amd you can do encoding on your GPU, on Nvidia they call it shadowplay, on AMD they call it Relive :)

To stream, you don't need a pc... you need a BIG LIT AF corsair case which can contain a full atx and a mini atx comupter CONTEMPORARLY and use the atx (rgb) one to game and the MITX to encode and stream. That's how Linus should do... cus it's never too overkill for Linus.

Video idea: OBS as Fast as Possible
i use a ryzen 5 1600. it seems to work extremely well with 1920x1080 at a 2700 bitrate (i am not partnered). i was using an 1050 ti scc as my graphics card, but i recently built my wife a mirror of my computer and gave her that graphics and updated to a 1070ftw for when i want to add vr to my streams. i do it all on one computer with recording and i have no issues that i have been aware of. a lot you need to do is to tinker with the obs settings to get you best sweet spot
dual core laptop 1.49ghZ no graphic card(intel the one insatlef on its own) 2gb ram i should definetely stream
You'd be surprised what you can get away with as far as streaming xp. Just dont expect HD quality.
Could i stream myself in 720p playing the piano using only intel i7 8700k integrated graphics card??
240p
Good confidence...😅😂
I appreciate the Video, but I think some of the wording might give people a wrong impression.
While a setup of 2 "enthusiast" PCs (one minus the GPU) is indeed superior to a single high-end gaming PC having to handle both, using 2 machines is usually a much cheaper option.
Also, I think you severely underestimate some old Hardware or overestimate the demand for a "average" Streamer.
For once, you can only count on a variable resolution feature on Twitch, which requires certain criteria to be met. According to Twitch's FAQ, about 0,85% of the streamers are partners. So if you'd stream at 1080p60, a lot of people with slow internet (or data limits i.E. on Mobile) won't be able to watch your stream.
Also, old CPU like the Xeon X3440 / X3450 are perfectly fine unless you go crazy with the settings.

If you use a dual PC setup can the streaming PC run on Linux?
Keine Ahnung This is a good question.
You should be able to as long as you have drivers for the capture card and have compatible streaming software. All that matters is that you get an hdmi cable from the gpu to the capture card.
it can now,if it couldn't 1 year ago!
A double pc set up is great for streaming. A regular desktop pc usually has a weak graphics card but a decent cpu. So if you buy a gaming rig and want to stream you can still use the desktop instead of just replacing it.

Yes but u need decent internet
a 1070/1080 coding with nvenc can look pretty good when using restream.io and then sending to twitch, and or using ftl on mixer. you dont need a high end cpu for a second pc in this method. Magewell and ELgato have good 4k Capture cards. Sometimes i wish they would do a proper series on building rigs in different scenarios. Such as... audio issues, capture cards, using cpu and gpu encoding, creating your own transcoder, etc. there is so much half ass information out there that it leads people to spending way more then they really need to. Also, twitch has upped its bitrate as well. Believe it or not, but i find that i get better picture on twitch by not using twitch's ingest servers and instead use restream. I dont know why it looks way better than the potato output that twitch does for non partners but it works. its a serious option for free that people should be looking into
Aaaand nothing about encoding with NVENC, aight
DR01D_Qs although you CAN stream with NVENC without losing much performance, the quality suffers compared to a x264 encoder; which means that you will need a higher bitrate for equal quality.
Because x264 is way better right now. Tell Nvidia to put some money into making NVENC useful. A R5 1600 or better is all you need to stream most games right now.
CrazyWeeMonkey well yes, I know because I stream with NVENC a lot. And to do that, all you need is 15Mb internet (lower values in Russia means living in a cave where you don't even have a PC) to put like 8-10k bitrate. It is unquestionably cheaper than buying a beast CPU, not to mention near to no performance cost at all compared to x264
azureskies01 1600 is good, but why is x264 better than NVENC?
DR01D_Qs twitch has a bitrate limit of 6000kbps.
Linus, CPU encoding your stream is so 2016. All Nvidia GPUs starting from GTX 900 gen and up support excellent hardware stream encoding. This means you can stream at 5500kbps, 1920x1080 (or greater!) at 60 fps with NO CPU OVERHEAD. I am streaming World of Tanks which is super sensitive about CPU overhead, my fps went from 70-90 to 120 by simply switching from my Xeon 2687W 8c/16t to a GTX 1070's built-in hardware encoder. Plus, while the Xeon certainly could not handle streaming at steady 60 fps output, the GPU does.
😂😂 who saw the forum post about the mom whose son wanted a 1050 ti and she was looking for a cheaper option.
You can stream well on an R5 1600 too. I can stream 2013ish games at 1080p 60 without influencing game or stream quality. But for games such as WWII or Battlefield One, 720 with 32bit sharpening still looking incredibly sharp and doesn't impact performance. It happens to look just as good as 1080p anyways :p
Easy answer a good one
I actually wanna start streaming in the future, during free times, this was helpful, thanks!
You will need 2 pc one with i7 the cheapest you can find and a second pc with 4 gb graphics card and with a i9 the cheapest you can find ssd and modem switch to connect 2 pc lan and 2 monitors and obs

or you can use integrated graphics (i.e. intel graphics) to encode the stream. cpu and gpu free for game.
@Super FURIOUS Gamer make sure to enable igpu in bios first then choose intel quicksync in obs for example. it works for me
I have a 8700k OC'd to 4.0GHz with a GTX 1060 6gb and streaming CSGO at 720p60 freaking sucks.. Whenever I start streaming my fps drops about 50ish frames, not a big problem you would think. But I also have a 144hz (soon 240hz dont judge me) monitor and whenever I start streaming my 144hz monitor feels like a 75hz monitor, even though I'm still hitting constant 200+ fps. I also do stream via my GPU encoder NVENC. Looks like the only option would be getting a second streaming pc, but streaming isn't that important to me.. I also only have this problem with CSGO
Hint: You need Ryzen
hint a 4th gen i5 is still better at gaming. plus if you use gpu encoding with a nvidia gpu only takes about a 5fps degradation still leads to better performance than ryzen
Logan .Kes hint: the viewer experience is worse on most Intel consumer systems.
Logan .Kes I can provide proof if you need it.
CyberianWolf viewer experience? Shadow play has better encoding plus you will at least have better gaming performance on intel
Logan .Kes No video evidence with numbers and the like.

Get a second, cheap, PC
Forgot to mention GPU encoding as a cheap option if you don't wanna blow extra money on a higher end or new CPU. Almost all moderm graphics cards have the ability to stream using their own processing power instead of your CPU without any noticeable impact. This also comes with the benefit of freeing up threads that could be used for other programs in the background such as, other than your game, voice chat, stream chat, music, and cat videos. While CPU encoding provides a higher quality stream, it has to be set fairly intense with at least 4 physical cores to get the edge over GPU encoding quality. That means 8 threads become unusable for other things. So while you can scratch by with a 6-core, the quality compared to GPU encoding while maintaining playable framerates isn't worth it.

It's not difficult to stream even on a lower end PC. I streamed on an i5-3570 and 960 with no issue. If you want to stream x264 then yes, cpu is the deciding factor, but you can use NVENC which, despite reports to the contrary, is very good quality. Also, don't bother even thinking about 1080/60 unless you have a separate rig, and even then. Most streamers do 720/60

Nice job bro! Very useful and informational video! Keep going!
do you even know how many subs he has?? stfu
tbh the Ryzen 5 1600x doesn't seem to do too badly either.
If I was building a system with streaming in mind, I'd go Ryzen7 1700 instead, because the price gap is worth it in my opinion, but you're right, the Ryzen5 1600X (or indeed non-X) is a very capable chip as well. Before you take purchasing advice from me though, do bear in mind that I'm the kind of guy that preordered a Ryzen7 1800X at full price, so maybe take it with a grain of salt... :p
Robert Faber true the 1700 is the r7 bang for buck I'm lucky to have gotten a 1700x for the same as a 1700 (maybe even just slightly more expensive than a 1600x)
I'm current streaming pretty well with the 1600, I've only had an issue with a couple of games, but I think it's because they are poorly optimized and some of my settings.
Would you do a more in depth episode that dives much deeper into this subject? I would really appreciate it. :-)
