Queries about live broadcasting on Twitch
This post concerns establishing a Twitch broadcast. Initially, let me present my computer specifications—these are the parts I intend to acquire: an Intel Core i7-8700k, an NVIDIA RTX 2080 graphics card, 32GB of Trident Z RAM (4x8GB at 3000MHz), a 2TB Intel 660p solid-state drive, a Steinberg UR22 Mk.II audio interface, an AKG D5 dynamic microphone, a Logitech C922x webcam, two Acer Predator XB271Hu monitors (144Hz, WQHD resolution), Philips SHP9500 headphones, and two Mackie MR524 studio monitors. My goals for this configuration are: 1. To display gameplay on one monitor while simultaneously viewing a stream feed on another. 2. To capture audio via my microphone (AKG D5). 3. To deliver game sound alongside my own voice to viewers’ headphones—I understand this involves a technique called audio loopback, though I lack detailed knowledge of its implementation. 4. To record video from my webcam. 5. To have the capability to utilize my studio monitors for listening to music during non-streaming periods. Therefore, I have a few initial inquiries: (1) What cables will be necessary? (2) Are there any additional components required? (3) Beyond OBS Studio, what other software should I utilize? (4) How should I configure this setup—specifically, how do I connect everything and what settings should be implemented? Finally, could you recommend optimal OBS streaming configurations for achieving 720p60fps or 1080p60fps output? Thank you for your assistance!
