    I streamed on Twitch for a few years until my pc broke. Now that I’m back up n running again and I’ve revamped my overall quality I’m going to go the TH-cam route. Private test streams have gone well. Best of luck to anyone else taking on their goals this year!

    Hey Curry, really appreciate the insights..this was super helpful! My first stream is happening this Saturday, and since I don’t have a proper video capture card yet, I’ll just be using the PS5 camera to start on TH-cam Live and see how it goes. It’s not a big deal for the first time, but in the future, I’ll definitely use OBS as you suggested.
    I’ve already set up most of the things I need…now I’m just waiting for a second monitor, and once that’s in place, I’ll be good to go. I decided to start with TH-cam Live because it has a broader reach..you’ve got shorts, long-form content, and live streaming all in one place, which makes it a great starting point. Eventually, I plan to start streaming on Twitch too, but only after I complete my setup with the extra screen and capture card.
    Thanks again for your input..it really helped!❤

    • @LASCurry
      @LASCurry  4 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      that’s awesome to hear! I’m excited for your first stream this Saturday it sounds like you’ve got a solid plan. Starting with TH-cam Live is smart, especially with all the built in growth tools. Just focus on content and consistency.
      Also, I run a coaching community called Streamer Academy Pro, where I help streamers like you level up faster with personalized feedback and growth strategies. If you’re interested, I’d love to have you in! No pressure, just thought it might be helpful. lascurry.com/streameracademypro

    Do you need a powerful computer/tower to stream on TH-cam? I generally stream on twitch and edit down the vods to make shorts. Been grinding my gaming content for about a year and I’m at 435 followers. I think I tried to stream on YT off the bat but I was having issues with the stream

    • @LASCurry
      @LASCurry  5 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

      First off, congrats on getting to 435. It may not seem like a lot, but most creators never get there, and you're putting in the work and time. Now, if you already stream to Twitch from your pc using OBS, it's not going to require any more resources to stream to YT aside from setting it up - I show you in this video how to do it th-cam.com/video/JrJJeLr62LA/w-d-xo.html Give it a shot and see if that works better for you, if you have any issues let me know.

    Been watching a ton of videos. Thanks for all the teaching you do. I was wondering if would get any benefit from upgrading my video card. My current card is PNY GeForce GTX 1070 Founders Edition 8GB . The card I'm thinking about purchasing is MSI RTX 3060 VENTUS 2X OC 12GB. Would it result in a better stream quality. My upload speed is maxed out at 10Mbps. I want to provide the best 1080 60fps stream. Just in case you wonder my cpu is AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, ROG STRIX B350-F GAMING (AM4) motherboard with 32 gb of ram

    • @LASCurry
      @LASCurry  3 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Hey! Appreciate you watching and supporting the content!
      Upgrading from a GTX 1070 to an RTX 3060 won’t make a huge difference in your stream quality, The 3060 has a better NVENC encoder, which means slightly better efficiency and less strain on your CPU while streaming.
      Upgrading your upload speed would be better and using 6000k bitrate to get good 1080p 60fps
