Streaming online is hugely popular, with multiple platforms and services available. Starting out can seem daunting, but with a great streaming PC and a stable internet connection, you are pretty much ready to go. Having the right hardware can take your content to the next level. Overclockers UK has a huge range of PCs perfect for streaming. Whether you want a single PC setup for both gaming and streaming, or a dual PC setup with dedicated machines for both, we have the right customisable solution for you.
The right streaming PC makes all the difference between lag-filled gameplay and a full stream chat basking in the glory of your setup. No matter your requirements or budget, Overclockers UK has the perfect streaming PC for you. If you’re looking to become the next streaming star, you’ll need to decide between a single PC or dual PC setup.
A single system streaming setup requires a powerful CPU and GPU, as it needs to both render and encode your gaming stream. For the best results, you will need at least an Intel Core i7, Core i9, AMD Ryzen 7, or a Ryzen 9 CPU. For the graphics card, the bigger, the better. At the minimum, we recommend an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060Ti or AMD Radeon RX 6800XT.
The other option is a dual-streaming PC setup. For your gaming PC, we recommend 16GB of RAM, a powerful processor such as an Intel i7-12700K, and a hefty graphics card like the GeForce RTX 3070Ti. Then for the streaming PC, you'll need a high-performance CPU as your processor to do most of the work encoding the video from your gaming PC. We recommend choosing a PC that also has at least 16GB of RAM and a high-performance GPU, such as the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti.
Finally, to receive the output from your gaming PC you will need a capture card. This is also a necessary piece of kit if you are streaming from a console instead of a secondary computer.
Take your stream to the next level with our range of high-quality streaming accessories. From high-quality webcams, broadcast-grade microphones, ring lights, green screens, and much more, you’ll have everything you need to impress your audience.

Read MoreThere are two types of streaming PCs. Single PC streaming setups are optimised to play games whilst encoding and uploading your content to livestreaming sites. Whereas, dual PC streaming setups consist of two PCs. One dedicated to gaming with the highest settings possible, alongside a PC solely to ingest, encode, and upload your content live.
