Laptop For Live Streaming

Crash Test Zombie · 8 Oct 2020 at 22:18

Hi all,

I'm looking for some advice if you'd be so kind?

I have been asked to get involved with live streaming some non-league football games on a PPV basis as I currently film the highlights and so need to get a new laptop for the club.

I'm in the early stages of setting this up but the input will be the video footage and the output a live stream. I assume I'll need a good processor, a decent amount of RAM, SSD and maybe a graphics card?

Budget is maybe about £800-£1000.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

if you are just streaming it shouldn't be very hard..
what will be the source of the stream?

Thanks for getting back to me.

The input will be a camera via an HDMI. I believe it'll be going through a program called OBS.
