Been looking for ages at what budget laptops to get to record along with elgato. This video is exactly what I needed, couldn’t find any of this information anywhere else. THANKYOUUUU
@@TyBrezzy11 if you’re talking to me, I was initially looking for a friend but he went with an older laptop with decent specs which was a good choice. Sorry I couldn’t give you the answer you wanted. I have a 4 year old asus tuf that works perfectly for streaming, it’s a 16gb 1050TI, I7. Should be able to get one for roughly £300-400
Thank you for making this video. I am currently looking for a laptop which will be able to be used for streaming only, while i game on my gaming PC. your video has given me some glimpse of which laptop should i buy for the streaming and what kind of specs it requires in general.
Great video bro, keep up the great work. Awesome way to help ppl out to get something basic to start they stream off keep up the great work much respect awesome video very helpful God Bless
@@MidnightMan yes it does but it can also work better for a budget setup especially if you still got PS4 n Xbox one you can run 1280x 720 to get a little better performance
Same, my old 2012 MacBook Pro is really starting to crap itself I need to take it apart and put an SSD in it, I'll never get rid of it because nothings glued down and has all the ports and disc drive. I still use CDs.
I think these are o.k. for watching UA-cam & basic programs when running Windows 11 but that's about it. The little Celeron 6 watts processor really struggles at anything more demanding. I found that an Internet speed test went twice as fast when using Xubuntu 22.04 than W11. These run like a dream on Linux Mint 21 or Xubuntu 22.04. If you're running W11, d.l. a linux iso, & use the Rufus program to create a linux usb thumb drive.
From Walmart, HP laptop stream, 14" various colors, windows 11 in S mode Memory 4GB, storage 64GBeMMC, Intel Celeron. For beginners and students. If you're not doing a lot of storing and need a little storage it's great! Screen is very nice and battery 🔋 life is around 11HRS, Microsoft also provides online support and will dèlite anything you don't need if you are short on storage and memory. My first new laptop. Hopefully this helped you into you're decisions to buy. Best buy told me that it's too small for the work and streaming l do so I have bought this one for $135.00 . U boat 🛥 commander 157
Wow been looking for a video and you'res is perfect I bought a 200 $ hp lptp from Walmart hoping it would stream but now I know it will never work thank you so much this video helped out so much time to buy a better pc
My all in one hp pc does the same as the laptop you got and I wish I seen this video before I spent $350 on it but 🤷🏽♂️ I’ll just have to work up and get a computer you recommended. Great video bro🙏🏽.
I just hope this works with an HD 60 x and chat link pro. I'm new and wanting to get into streaming. I'm nervous as hell. I just hope I can stream comfortably with my consoles and laptop. Because I'm doing some pc game streaming too. I just don't understand all of the stuff. But I've got a decent laptop and people are still saying I need better and it won't cut it. So idk anymore, I can't afford stuff. I live pay check to paycheck. Low income.

Dumb question about the HP Stream, but i was wondering how it would do for playing just basic Minecraft. Not looking to add mods or anything of that sort, just looking to play basic creative and survival modes. Will that be too much for it, or will it run fine??
I need some help, I need a laptop that can record ps5 gameplay at 1080p 60fps through a capture card and OBS. I need it to be able to run the apps well without being slow or crashing. I want a laptop rather than a pc as it’s more portable.
@@MidnightMan Please I’m having so much trouble trying to mess with my settings but just can’t figure it out I’m running through a capture card from my Xbox to it and it seems so buggy streaming
I'm about ready to get into this as well with my Xbox series x but my son is going to be streaming and starting all that up. Looking for what I should get him to make sure that he can at least run 1080
I know this is two years old (when I’m seeing this) but your obs settings was very wrong. I’m not an expert but if you switch it to advanced settings. You can change up the settings more. Plus it might not be good for recording but streaming might do better since it’s not trying to record to the hdd.
How can you fix a color fade /washed out look on obs .I have a great laptop (Lenovo - Yoga 7i 2-in-1 15.6" Touch Screen Laptop - Intel Core i5 - 8GB Memory - 256GB Solid State Drive).Gameplay in OBS looks faded while connected to my switch,monitor and HD60s+
Question just wanted to clarify if were you gaming on the laptop during the test run? I’m just looking for a laptop that can handle running OBS for my twitch stream while gaming on my PS5/4. Will my stream run into those problems if I’m gaming on PS5 and streaming via capture card to laptop?
No he is using the laptop as dedicated streaming machine, meaning he is gaming in his main PC and the laptop do the live streaming both utilizing its capability. This is a 2021 video which mean that laptop might be a 10th gen celeron. N100 12th gen is waving, this newer celeron is equivalent of a desktop i5-7400 CPU both has a 4 Core 4 Thread and max boost clock difference is only 100Mhz however the celeron has a better IPC its a 6W CPU that can go upto 30W peak underload. You can use Quick-sync and now you can stream at 1080p 60FPS veryfast preset. If you turned off the video output display within OBS this will reduce CPU load by 30% and now you can use that to add 1 or 2 overlay. The HP laptop in the video can be optimize by doing a 720p 30FPS preset + disablingthe video output to lessen iGPU load its the biggest bottleneck even if you have an i9 laptop that uses iGPU/UHD graphics plus the option to use quick-sync to lessen CPU load that will fix the issue in this video.
Can you do a video for most affordable Laptop to stream TikTok Live studio? The specs they require are a bit over the top compared to what OBS require and I just want to get a laptop that can support all it's asking for within a budget.
I got the same computer, but I couldn't download OBS because I didn't have enough space, but I got a 2-terabyte external hard drive, and it still doesn't help also my cpu is always running at $100 idk what I have that you did differently
i have an i7 13th with an integrated graphic card (iris Xe) laptop and i tried to stream with it on OBS but it does not let me i wish someone help me on it or what streaming app should i use please.
i have asus and curently its 3 years old. i play games like ets 2 and csgo. how long is left in that laptop curently thers been no lag no overheating everything great but im thinking about buying gaming pc right after this.
I wouldn't bet on it. You're better off getting a mini gaming PC at an equivalent price point. I have recs here www.amazon.com/shop/midnightman/list/2FQFR2Q2JA2BY?ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_mixed_d
Hm I think these computers are bit expensive but maybe I’ll think about it. Thank you for the information though, I also have the computer that you bought from Best Buy, and I tested to see if I can stream my switch on it and it didn’t really work that much Thanks for the information about these computers
Thank you for this video I had this issue today while trying to setup my 4k60 s+ it records but looks choppy lol now I know I need to upgrade to a better computer can’t thank you enough! Any tips as to why my chat link setup makes my recording gameplay audio sound like it’s echoing or is jumbled and sounds like robot noises overtop of it. Any suggestions would be appreciated I’ve tried everything in your videos as far as I’m aware in regards to the setup and settings(Xbox series x)

Do you think it would be good to play roblox and minecraft on? I have been looking for a laptop for my girlfriend to play a couple games on and was wondering if this would be a good gaming laptop for games like roblox or minecraft and stuff nothing huge
I’m just watching this I’m 2 yrs behind but since it’s 2024 and I wanna start streaming on twitch would be GTX be worth doing like I won’t have to worry about lagging or what you think I should do
I'm live streaming Fortnite on ps4 using a capture card to my low end laptop with intel celeron n4000 cpu intel uhd graphics 600 and 4gb ram, the stream runs at 720p@30 fps, i also set the bitrate about 1500kbps, well the stream quality might not be good as live streaming in a high end pc but still playable 😊
Hey man. Say I was just looking to use my laptop as a kind of monitor for my xbox one gameplay via HDMI connection, and then of course using OBS to stream that gameplay that's being displayed on the laptop, would this be possible? Since I'm not actually playing the game on my laptop yknow? Nothings running or anything so would this work?

Where did you get your games on the laptop?
if you are using OBS on a low end pc (i3 and lower) make sure to use Intel QSV as it will greatly improve performance
