Request: Streaming PC and Niche Software

Hello, and thank you for taking the time to look at my request.

• New Build or Upgrade?

  • New Build

• Existing parts:

  • Monitors— two possible to reuse; Scepter 24 in, HP 23.8 FHD

• PC purpose?

  • Design A Knit 9 (DAK9)
    • Not super strict requirements, but I would appreciate recommendations for the best way to run something that isn’t in “safe mode” because I don’t really know what that entails
  • Streaming OBS Studio
  • Video Editing, likely just using YouTube Create and/or Canva, so likely on the lighter end
  • I use the Logitech Reach camera
  • Zoom/Video Calling (teaching lessons online)

• Purchase country?

  • United States of America
  • The nearest Microcenter is a four hour drive. It is possible to make the trip.

• Monitors needed?

  • My husband said I would probably need two, but I’ve only ever used one… so two, I suppose
  • I would it if love a white monitor setup somehow fit in the budget. I really am clueless on what quality options cost, though. Input is much appreciated.

• Budget range?

  • Up to $850
  • I can potentially swing it if that number doesn’t include taxes yet

• WiFi or wired connection?

  • WiFi but wired is possible if necessary

• Size/noise constraints?

  • as quiet as possible

• Color/lighting preferences?

  • white cases
  • RGB is fine, but it’s not necessary to go out of the way to add it if something doesn’t have it already

I have quite a few USB and USB C accessories like the above mentioned Logitech Reach (USB C), the Logitech Litra Glow along with two webcams, one that is the Logitech C270, and I can’t find what the other one is, but it’s likely a cheapie like the C270 and both are USB. I sometimes use external speakers. I prefer using a wireless mechanical keyboard and wireless mouse, so I think I will need quite a few USB ports.

DAK9 is a CD installation, but I can buy an external for that install.

Please let me know if I need to add more information! I will do my best to fill in any gaps.
