Hardware for 13x NDI QHD/UHD streams

Hello,
We are building a vMix-based video streaming system and trying to get the right hardware. We want to use this system to stream a 5v5 e-Sport events.
Also, we want to use 3x 4K60p NDI cameras, and we have 2x 4K60p video walls.
So in summary, there will be:
- 10x NDI 2K60p game captures from vMix Desktop Capture - 3x NDI 4K60p camera sources - 2x HDMI 4K60p video walls (probably they will be mirrored at the Windows level, but it would be nice to have the possibility of displaying independent streams) - No SDI inputs/outputs so no need for additional I/O cards - A few Audio Dante streams with commentary received via Dante Virtual Soundcard
So far, I have chosen:
- Intel i9-14900K - Gigabyte Z790 UD AX - RTX 4090 24GB - 64 GB RAM - 4 TB NVMe storage - 1 Gbps motherboard network card for Internet access - 10 Gbps PCIe network card for NDI streams - 1 Gbps PCIe network card for Dante streams (maybe this is unnecessary and it's better to use 10 Gbps for both video and audio?) - Switch NetGear M4250-26G4XF-PoE+
Is this even a realistic scenario to process so many QHD/UHD streams on this CPU and GPU?
Because I read that we should have 1 core per stream, but this CPU has only 8 performance cores while the rest 16 are efficient ones - will this be a problem?
Maybe the extra power from the i9-14900KS is worth the investment?
Or better to switch to the AMD Ryzen 9950X, which has 16 equal cores?
To be fair, our original project had the Tricaster TC2 instead of vMix, but we are trying to cut down costs significantly...
Best regards, Krzysztof

Quote: Hello. Personally after all these have heard for intel 13/14 gen cpu about the voltages and all these and because vmix pushes a lot the cpu i wouldnt go for them,except i buy it for 100$ maximum
I agree, it doesn't look good, although I hope new CPU batches + latest bios will solve the problem (hope is the mother of fools ๐). I looked through the forum briefly but the only thing I could find was information about old gen Intels, it looks like I missed that! This is what I was afraid of. So it seems the best is to stay away from hybrid cores when it comes to vMix. Quote: Also they already announced the new 1851 chipset and new cpu`s.
Typical Intel. Changing sockets every other year๐ Thanks.
