Hey I just found a streamer and he showed a beginners pc setup. I’m trying to focus on both stream and gaming. I’m also going to be using my PS4 and a capture card. I just needed help to know if I got the right parts or if I needed to upgrade something, any recommendation would help. This is not my area of expertise. I deff wanted to make sure the CPU was good as well? Thank you in advance

  • Hello @P_R

    This build is very similar to the AMD Build I had previously, just no RGB Ram and less drives as the PC isn't your main focus but streaming is.  I also went with a B550 rather than the B450 for options to upgrade in the future if you choose to upgrade your PC for better gaming performance if you ever choose to switch to PC Gaming in the future.  
  • What graphics card should I put in it?

    . A video card wouldn't be a requirement, but if you want to add a GPU, then I'd go with a GTX 1650 Super. It's a fine budget card and gives you access to NVIDIA'S newest NVENC encoder which can be a very nice feature for streaming.
