Question Live Streaming dedicated streaming PC build (Non-gaming)

[mauricesaunders92]

Hello everyone. I have a streaming question, not streaming games though. It's actually streaming my Church services. I'm currently out to do a dedicated streaming pc build. I'm wondering if the same principals apply for dedicated streaming pc's for games and actual "live video" coming from a blackmagic video switcher into a blackmagic capture card on the streaming pc.

I plan to use an i5-9600k.

Will this be more than enough for streaming? or do I need more threads seen that it's only 6 cores and 6 threads?

I5 9600K seems to be a good option but I will suggest you to get a good GPU. I know that live streaming is CPU intensive task but having a GPU is a better choice. If you dont want to invest a lot on GPU then you can go with GTX 750.

Ok, do you think this will be of any future proof usage? such as being able to stream 4k30 with sharp picture results as being only a streaming PC?
