Hi Expericed vMix users

I'm currently planning my first vMix based system. My setup will have 5 IP cameras (H.264), 1 HDMI input and 2 SD inputs.
I plan to record the output and to use the 3 integrated graphics ports for my monitor (for vMix main window) and Dual Fullscreen Outputs (1 output and 1 input 1)

My questions is can the on board graphics handle this load? Below is my proposed setup. Any guidance you can offer, would be greatly appreciated.

Mobo: Gigabyte GA-H87N-WIFI Maximum shared memory of 1 GB

CPU: Intel Core i7-4790S
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600 MHz
SSD (for media files): Samsung Electronics 840 EVO-Series 1TB 2.5-Inch SATA III
SSD (for recordings): Samsung Electronics 840 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5-Inch SATA III
OS: Windows 8

Monitor: Planar Helium PCT2785 27" Widescreen Multi-Touch

Hi ceo246,
On board graphics is not recommended although you might have some success with the new Intel 5200 series available on some motherboards. vMix utilises the graphics card extensively, so a separate graphics card is highly recommended.

Depending on your intended use, IP cameras may not be your best choice. Feel free to PM me if you want to discuss it further (I am in BIM).
