Youtube Streaming Setup Equipment?

[BriannesFishFam]

Hi all,

This was the best place I could think of posting these questions because this is off-topic section. 

So I have a large fish room in my basement but a small one in my bedroom. About 13 tanks in my 10x11 room and I have my bed and closet and such in the room as well, because that's my bedroom. So as you can probably imagine there is very slim space. I do have some stuff I can get rid of and some rearrengments that would free up my desk and a little more. 

 

I live stream on youtube twice and weeks and plan on expanding to other social media platforms in the future. I want to try and create a nice, small, budget streaming setup on my desk and here are my ideas.

 

1-2 Monitors - I have 2 TVs Im not using so I could pull up live chat on one and my streaming service on the other (looked online and see most streamers use two, even KGTropicals)

I have a Blue Yeti Microphone - yeah not exactly a budget microphone but it is one of the best so I've heard

I have a webcam with a small ring light on it

Maybe a small light to clip to the desk

Computer Desktop PC

Keyboard and Mouse

 

I may actually have some of this laying around but I was wondering if anyone has any good places to find these and if anybody streams on here what do they use?

 Come to Twitch!  We need more aquarium streamers.

Do you stream on twitch? What kind of setup do you use? How many monitors?

I have my account setup, but I haven't set up to stream yet.  I have two monitors.   I'm looking for a camera now that will capture underwater footage I can stream, so externally powered.   I'll let you know what I end up going with!

I do follow a few Twitch streamers, and we have a good time talking fish in the stream.
