I mentioned it last month in the obs linux forums, but I’m wondering if my question might have been unclear. Regarding the OS, I’m looking for the best flavor while considering hardware needs and extra requirements.

linux will handle things similarly within a 5% range. For x264, aim for a Ryzen 1600 or 2600 and the most affordable GPU you can locate—won’t be utilized. A 16GB GPU is good, 8 should suffice. A 120GB SSD boot drive is beneficial.

nm was reviewing obs fully grasp that i’ll likely stick with slackware or lfs for the most part, keep obs running on top. Thanks again.

Even Windows requires minimal resources. It uses under one percent of the system's capacity, especially on powerful setups and heavier distributions versus lighter ones on modern machines.
