My company is looking to replace our Tricaster with vMix and a Windows based machine. We want to go with a build that will allow us to utilize up to 4K 60fps cameras and stream the video to online streaming services. We are also needs SDI and HDMI inputs. Does any one on the forum have any suggestions on how I should build this machine?

Thank you for the link. I had already looked over the suggested specs. I was confused though about how to take in the multiple camera feeds. Most of the cards that I researched are just single feed cards. I am needing to bring in the video from up to 5 cameras so that we can cover athletic events.

So you would need to use a combination of PCI cards and External devices, ie. Thunderbolt enclosures or 4K USB capture devices for that many 4K cameras. Check the supported hardware page. https://www.vmix.com/sof...are.aspx#capturehardware
