My Retro Gaming Stream Station

This is my new setup for playing console games (or PC games) while streaming it to Twitch.TV.  This new setup is MUCH better than my old setup.

Here is a video showing the setup in detail along with a quick tour of my crib:

My new setup will allow me to have 60fps RGB quality video for me and my stream with high compression, resolution, and bitrate!

Here are some images of the setup:

Here is all the components in detail:

Monitors:

• Gaming Monitor - BenQ ZOWIE 27 Inch HD Console Gaming Monitor
• Twitch Chat Monitor - Dell UltraSharp U2715H 27-Inch
• 3rd Monitor for all other stuff (like OBS etc..) - Dell Professional P2417H 23.8"
• The TV Set - Sony KDL-55W900A 55-Inch - NOTE: This TV is not really used for my setup anymore, but I can mirror the game on it If I want to.
• Monitor Mounts - LX Desk Mount LCD Arm and AmazonBasics Single Monitor Mounting Arm (I have noticed that both of these products are the exact same in quality, so get AmazonBasics to save $).

Game Systems:

• NES System - A modified NESRGB Toploader (with power LED and multi out RGB port).
• SNES System - 1CHIP-01 SNES.  I use Super Famicom controllers.  I also have a Nakitek Game Saver for save state practice on actual console.
• Sega Genesis - Sega Genesis Model 1 "High Definition Graphics" Console.
• Xbox 360

Please note that I also have a Wii, but it is currently only hooked up to the TV set and not my stream station (I rarely use it).  I also have a PS2, and that may get hooked up in the future, especially if I want to play SOTN.

Flash Carts I Have:

• SNES - SD2SNES
• NES - PowerPak
• Genesis - Mega Everdrive

Other Peripherals:

• 2 Way Powered Speakers - Audioengine A2+ Black (Pr.) 2-way Powered Speaker System - I really like these, they are the best stereo speakers I can find for my setup!
• Oculus Rift VR Headset - I may stream VR stuff on occasion for fun!
• Microphone - It is a conference mic that picks up noise in the entire room.

Stuff "Behind The Scenes":

• Upscaler -  OSSC 1.6.  I also have the Framemeister (XRGB-mini), but the OSSC is a better overall upscaler providing superior image quality with less input delay.
• Scart Switcher - Hama SCART Switch Box AV-100S - I use this to easily switch between consoles without unplugging scart cables to my upscaler.
• HDMI Splitter - Tripp Lite 4-Port 4K HDMI Splitter, 1 In 4 Out - This allows me to send the HDMI out of my upscaler to my PC, TV, and Gaming Monitor at the same time.
• HDMI cables - I mostly use Mediabridge HDMI cables for better overall quality.

PC:

NOTE: You can watch me install this whole PC from scratch here if you like.

So yeah, go to my Twitch.tv page to learn more about what speed runs I am currently working on, and watch me LIVE when ever you feel like it :)  You can follow my Twitch channel to be notified when ever I go live.
