Hardware requirements to stream 4k?

Now and then I stream on Twitch or Youtube. Nothing big, usually only for a few friends, or even later to cut the videos again… Meanwhile, however, I have changed my computer to 4k (1st Monitor 4k, 2nd Monitor Full FullHD). I now stream the game with a 4k resolution is the recording and the stream on the jerk, so I must first screw down the resolution which I do not like so much…

So, which requirements would my hardware need to stream a 4k recording?

Currently I have an Intel I7 7700k with 16GB Ram and a Geforce 1070GTX. Streamsoftware is OBS and the game I mostly stream is Ark Survival Evolved…

4k Gameplay + 4k Stream is of course a board. For me liquid means minumum 60fps gameplay and 30 fps in the stream, better there 60 fps.

Ne RTX 2080 (TI) should be it already. If you want to render the stream via CPU, then an I9 9900k or Threadripper 2950X would be a good choice.

Just because you have a 4k resolution, can you stream your stream to 720p normally? Or do I understand grad your problem not right?

If you want to stream in 4k you need a corresponding internet connection

Habs fears. What about OC? Have yes I7 7700k currently not hochgetaktet, would that at least something remedy?

60 fps will be difficult, but 30 fps should work in most games. The graphics card is the main issue in your situation when it comes to 4k gameplay.

Right, but that looks awful in a 4k monitor, I thought I could at least stream higher without the extreme Framedrops on Twitch…

I still do not understand.

You can PLAY on 4k and on 720p STREAMEN…

If you still want to play in 4k will be critical with the 1070 with 60fps
