I have been entertaining the Idea of upgrading my computer because of some subtle issues with my current computers running livestreams. I am running vMix 4K with 6 USB 4K capture devices, 5 cameras and one prompter video from sound man; live stream to YouTube and Facebook. Record to two different hard drives; and use 4 monitors. I have bought a Victus Ryzen 7 computer with much the same as the Pavilion for a backup.  I use a HP Pavilion Ryzen 7 2700 8-core with a Radeon RX 580 (4G) graphics. averaging 78% CPU usage. I live stream out in Full HD. I am seeing dropped frames between recording and actual camera recordings and trouble getting more than two audio inputs to work. third one gets choppy. When I get home, I reproduce the video into a new DVD/Blu-ray which takes time to sync all 6 videos together and them produce them after editing. I saw somewhere that video editing recommends 24 core processors; but I was shooting more for the 16 core. I am open to recommendations and advice. I have looked at recommendations from vMix and they seem more Like downgrading.

Yep, HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop 690-00xx. At the time I figured if it was setup to handle high end graphics Fast then it should do video just as good. Awesome to see 16 processors kick in full when doing live stream. But getting close to 80% of all the processors usage makes me wonder... And it was only around a thousand dollars which was well worth it for the number of hours it used to take to process a video.

https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c05939208You could perhaps try replacing the HDD with a 2.5" SSD in the SATA port for recording (Samsung 870 QVO) And add an Acasis VS007 (AC-PH201) or Acasis AC-VS2584 card to the PCIe x1 slot if some cameras have HDMI outputs, to replace two USB capture devices. Replace RX580 with NVIDIA RTX A4000 upgrades to try or change PC No downgrading. Even the laptop in the vMix reference system is much more powerful than your HP PC.
