I really don't know. . .

My Setup I guess:

-=-=-=-=-

CPU i9-9900K
GPU: RTX 2080
MEM: 32 GB RAM
BOOT: 970 EVO+ 500 GB
HDD: 1TB (Old OS/Resources) + 5TB (Games, and Larger/old Applications) + 6TB (Pure Stream / Recorded gameplay)
(That's like... 12 TB of storage. . . And all my drives are almost full. . .)
MOBO: ASUS ROG MAXIMUS CODE XI

All in the Phanteks Enthoo Luxe Case.

I use the Elgato HD60 Pro for console streaming / recording. (I have a whole setup to stream classic consoles off the Elgato as well involving a RCA switch and RCA to HDMI converter)
I use the Sony HDCX900 as a webcam if I ever use one on stream or for videos. It connects through the Elgato CamLink.

Audio: Electro Voice RE20 Going through a cloud lifter pre-amp, into a Focusrite 2i2 (2nd Gen I'm pretty sure) That vocal signal is further processed by VST Plugins in my OBS, that I also duplicate to my stereo mix to use as a microphone for VC's

I stream and record videos occasionally @ https://twitch.tv/izaak6969 & https://youtube.com/izaak2010

-=-=-=-=-

I stream with StreamLabs OBS @ 1080p60 with the bitrate set CBR @ 6000 kbps
Using Hardware Encoding at "Max Quality" I also force the color range to be 0-255 rather than the default 16 - 235 to have the full color spectrum, which can look faulty on devices with limited range especially with darks, but most users are on mobile / PC so richness in color should usually be an enhancement. (There are also some consoles that display more accurate colors when you use limited, but expanding the color space is rarely a full detriment)

If I stream, I am streaming for fun!~
