In the past, I tried to use a laptop to stream, but it struggled with anything above 720p.
I’m really impressed with it - it’s fast! It handles a 1080p 60fps stream with the faster preset in OBS Studio (discussed below) just fine. The laptop is a 14” MacBook Pro (2021) upgraded with an M1 Max and 32 GPU cores. I’ll improve things over time, but I’d prefer to at least meet the affiliate requirements before spending any money - these are all things I already had. There’s not too much concerning hardware - I don’t have a particularly fancy setup with mixers and extra microphones. Here’s a picture of the setup that I’ll reference throughout the post: My streaming setup I’m actually quite close to the follower requirement, and over halfway there for the viewer requirement. My short-term goal is to reach the requirements to apply to the “Twitch Affiliate” program - that’s 50 followers, an average of 3 viewers per stream, and 8 hours streamed over 7 days, in a 30-day period. The last time I streamed was around 4 years ago, so I was interested to see what had changed in that time.
I’ve been having fun streaming games on Twitch this week, and thought it might be interesting to document my setup in late 2021.
