    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. :)

      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

    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 ?

      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.

    • @Azureskies01
      @Azureskies01 6 лет назад +1

      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.

    • @DR01DQs
      @DR01DQs 6 лет назад +1

      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

    • @DR01DQs

      azureskies01 1600 is good, but why is x264 better than NVENC?

    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.)

    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.

      @rjfaber1991 6 лет назад +3

      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

    • @Malus1531
      @Malus1531 6 лет назад +2

      Interesting question. I've never seen videos streamed greater than 60fps, so I assume you'd just capture at 60Hz like normal and it will drop some of your frames. The monitor shouldn't make a difference, it doesn't affect how many frames your GPU puts out. Even people with 60Hz monitors will be outputting varying framerates from their GPU, so there must be a way to deal with it.

    • @xodius80
      @xodius80 6 лет назад

      Lets say i get el gato: Ok so gpu conected to el gato, el gato conected to my monitor, BUT stays at 60 hz because is a HDMI port Out from del gato. That means my Gaming monitor wont have the 144hz refresh. How does one overcome this issues. is not that i want to stream at 144fps, i want to stream at 60fps
      BUT my monitor stay at 144hz

    • @AndrewSmall963
      @AndrewSmall963 6 лет назад +2

      Happy Farmer If you’re streaming with software, e.g. OBS, on the game host, you just set the streaming rate and resolution to whatever is needed; it’s independent of the gameplay. If capturing with hardware on a second PC, you could try setting the graphics card to use two, duplicate, outputs. One via DP at 144Hz and the second via HDMI at 60Hz. If it works it would allow you to continue gaming at 144 while streaming from the 60 Hz source; just ignore the elgato’s passthrough. There is a 4K elgato PCIe card, just released that uses an HDMI specification capable of that higher bandwidth.
