I'm building a dedicated streaming pc, and after googling what specs I need, there are about 100 different answers ....

What specs would I need in my dedicated stream pc to stream at 60fps / 720p (1080p ideally), 3500bitrate

My budget for this dedicated streaming pc is $1,500

What will you be streaming?
Do you need monitor(s)?
If not, what monitor(s) will you be using?
Do you need keyboard/mouse/etc?

1. I have a spare monitor I can use
2. I have a spare m&k!

Streaming Mordhau / csgo / battalion / dead by daylight / battlefield v

Would like to stream them all on highest in-game settings, but Im willing to stream them on any in-game settings if need be.

When it comes to streaming it's really not just your PC you need to look at. There's a lot of factors, and the truly major one is really just, you. If you're streaming for the hell of it, cool. Reality is though your bitrate needs to be higher for higher refresh rates and resolutions. Significantly so, I would say 8,000 - 11,000 would be the bitrate you're looking for when it comes to 1080@60. And that very likely could be your entire bandwidth. Big fault people don't know about is streaming is an upload process, not download. Which means your upload speed is the one you're looking at. If you want this to be your future, consider your audio and current ability TO stream. Then invest on the PC. Reality is you won't get far streaming if you're not talking. There are SOME exceptions and none major, in the end, their voice comes out. Take note to it. If this is just a hobby for you, go all in on your PC.

Major notes:
Audio
Single or Dual PC
Capture card
Internet Connection
