Help Me, Tom's Guide How Much Bandwidth Do I Need to Stream Games.
At Help Me, Tom's Guide, we hate to be the bearers of bad news, but sometimes, there's just no simple solution for a reader question. Take, for example, a query about video game broadcasting from user telmonefran on our forums:
Source: twitch.tv/thatscat"I was thinking about [starting] streaming, but my problem is that I don't [know] what video settings [to] use."
"My PC is quite good enough, so the problem [is with] the internet connection."
According to telmonefran, his download rate hovers around a respectable 12 Mbps, but his upload rate — the really critical component for broadcasting video game streams — gets up to only about 850 Kbps.
