Everything You Need to Stream Like a Pro (or Pretend You Are)
Whether you're live on Twitch, recording for YouTube, or just showing your mates how “cracked” you are at Warzone, our range of streaming gear is designed to make you look and sound like you've got your life together. Read More
What Makes a Good Streaming PC Setup?
A good streaming setup is more than just a fast internet connection and the hope that your mic won’t cut out mid-rant. You’ll want a powerful gaming PC with a multicore processor, at least 16GB of RAM, and a GPU that won’t panic every time you hit "Go Live". For smoother streaming, AMD Ryzen 7000 series CPUs or Intel 14th Gen chips are perfect for multitasking, encoding, and gaming simultaneously. Pair that with an NVIDIA RTX 40 or 50-series GPU for buttery gameplay and crystal-clear output. And don’t forget SSD storage—because load screens are for amateurs. For streamers using OBS or Streamlabs, a decent GPU and a dedicated capture card can also work wonders. You don’t need to build a NASA server, but don’t expect miracles from that dusty office PC either.
Do You Really Need a Dedicated Streaming Microphone?
Short answer: Yes. Long answer: Absolutely, yes. Unless you want your stream to sound like you’re talking through a potato, a proper cardioid condenser microphone will be your best friend. It captures your voice crisply while ignoring the background chaos—like barking dogs, loud flatmates, or existential dread. USB mics like the Elgato Wave:3 or XLR setups with an audio interface are popular choices for streamers looking to level up their audio game. And for the love of bitrate, stop using your headset mic—it’s doing none of us any favours.
Lighting: Because No One Wants to See You in the Dark
Let’s face it, you could have the best gameplay in the world, but if your facecam looks like a scene from a horror film, people are clicking off. Proper lighting transforms your stream from "teenager’s bedroom" to "professional content creator". Ring lights, key lights, and softboxes eliminate shadows and give your stream that clean, studio look. Look for adjustable RGB options to match your vibe and avoid overhead lights that make you look like a ghostly goblin. Combine good lighting with a decent 1080p or 4K webcam and your viewers might actually stick around—imagine that.
Streaming Software That Doesn’t Drive You Mad
When it comes to streaming software, you’ve got options—some better than others. OBS Studio is the go-to for most professionals thanks to its flexibility, plugin support, and lack of price tag (free is our favourite flavour). Streamlabs is a great alternative for beginners, with an easier interface and built-in widgets. No matter what you pick, make sure your hardware can handle it. OBS loves GPU encoding (NVENC), so NVIDIA graphics cards get a big thumbs-up here. Also, learn the difference between CBR and VBR—it’ll save you hours of Googling when your stream starts buffering like it’s stuck in 2006.
How to Avoid Lag, Buffering, and Other Stream Killers
You’ve got the kit, the charisma, and maybe even a few followers—but if your stream looks like a PowerPoint presentation, you’ve got a problem. First, make sure your upload speed is up to scratch (10 Mbps minimum for 1080p). Ethernet is king—Wi-Fi is for casuals. Tweak your bitrate settings in OBS to suit your internet speeds and use hardware encoding (NVENC or AMD AMF) to offload pressure from your CPU. Make sure your gaming and streaming workloads are balanced—running triple-A titles and streaming at 1080p 60fps on the same PC can push older systems to their knees faster than you can say “stream crashed”. The fix? High-end CPU, solid GPU, and possibly a dual-PC setup if you're really going for it.
Must-Have Streaming Accessories You Didn't Know You Needed
You’ve got the basics sorted—now it’s time to level up with the streaming accessories you didn’t think were essential… until now. Think mic arms that don’t squeak louder than your keyboard, shock mounts that stop your mic from picking up every desk slam, and stream decks that make switching scenes, muting, and launching clips feel like a breeze. Add a capture card for console streaming, some acoustic panels for better sound, and maybe even a green screen if you’re feeling fancy. It’s these finishing touches that separate the "just chatting" crowd from the full-blown pros. And don’t worry—we stock all the bells and whistles to make your stream setup borderline overkill (as it should be).
