Updates on Shroud’s Gaming Setup?
I like to make sure Shroud’s gaming and streaming PC setup is all up to date, so if you noticed anything in his setup here that was out of date then please let me know.
Just leave a comment below with whatever needs to be changed with his computer setup and I’ll get it updated asap.
Thanks!
Feel free to check out these other streamer setups below:
Shroud’s actually using a C920 AND a Sony A6000 with what I believe is a 16-50mm lens (as seen in the video he did with Mr.Beast)
Thanks RR! Just updated Shrouds webcam section with the Sony Alpha A6000.
Damn i have the same mouse, mouse pad and keyboard lol
but not same skills 🙂
But you don’t have the same skills lol hahaha
I’m surprised how affordable everything is — I’d expect some 15k$$ setup
I guess when you play everything on the lowest graphics settings for maximum FPS then you don’t need anything too crazy 😉
im interested in his obs settings more than anything.. his stream looks good on mixer.
Agreed, watching CoD on his stream vs Dr DisRespect’s stream you can really tell a difference
hes using a capture card…. obs settings don’t matter as much. eposvox on youtube makes all these “streaming tutorial” videos…. and he shows off HIS obs settings, but then forgets to tell people his capture card does 99.9% of the work so his settings are bullshit.
What? A capture card just passes on the feed to a secondary computer, it still has to be encoded…..
Shroud is live rn and he is using a Logitech headset but I’m not sure which one it is.
Thanks, we’ll scope it out to see which model it is!
Edit: Looks like they’re the Logitech G Pro X’s.
Does he really use 1080Ti? I’m impressed and shocked, lol.
2080ti*
His commands on mixer says hes using a prebuilt system. PREDATOR ORION 9000.
-i9-9980XE processor
-RTX 2080ti in SLI
-128GB DDR4 2666MHz
Awesome, we’ll get that updated. Thanks!
btw if he is using the i9-9980XE, then i dont believe hes able to use the Asus ROG maximus X formula.. i was just looking on
pc part picker, these parts are not compatible.
same…he is not
Pretty sure his main webcam is the sony one, instead of it being the C920.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but a c920 doesn’t look that good.
All the best,
Lachy
You’re right. We’ll update that. Thanks!
he on 7.1 surround sound or stereo on logitech software??
offcourse surround 7.1,
I highly doubt he’s using surround 7.1, because it sounds absolutely terrible.
so pc runs on ddr3 memory so shame full setup reviled
Doesn’t he use a diffrent pc fo streaming?
Generally yeah these guys use one to game and one to stream. Usually both computers are capable of running both and act as a back up to one another in case something crashes but they almost never run everything on one tower.
most of the big guys do and as far as I’m aware, he is as well yes. Good luck finding out what it is though, that info seems pretty hard to come by and even at that, I’ve seen a bunch of different what seem to be educated guesses as to what he is actually using. If you ask his stream element, it’ll tell you what main computer he’s using (which is a custom) but it doesn’t make mention of the secondary. He’s seemed to of changed some things since he went to mixer so like half his set up is up in the air again as to what he’s using. He’ll be changing a bunch on both computers again this summer due to new hardware coming out too. There’s a massive difference between that sony camera that’s listed and the logitech that’s listed. My guess? he’s not using the 100 buck one. Either way, if you are trying to stream like shroud streams, get a second job, save up about ten grand and dump it into a set up you’ll have to do almost yearly upgrades on and have a %99.99 chance of never realizing the money back out of from monetized game streaming.
I dont know much about Mics but Shrouds mic doesnt look any like the one that is linked to?
His mic is attached to a boom arm, so it might look a little different when it’s setup like that :). He’s more than likely using this RODE boom arm: https://amzn.to/2wIPI1m
What about the mouse he uses?
Hey, he’s using the G Pro Wireless: https://amzn.to/31taVWX
He’s using a logitech mousepad but idk which one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wh4DGNwJbJw
Yep! Updated to the Logitech G640 Cloth Gaming Mouse Pad
Does Shroud use a different keyboard now that he got signed by Logitech?
Yes, he uses the Logitech G Pro X Keyboard now.
He uses a Logitech mousepad now
Updated 🙂
Anyone know what his second monitor or display is for twitch chat?
Shroud actually Use Sony A600 as his webcam. Source: streamelements.com/shroud
Should be updated now 🙂

Thanks, updated!
As of October 22, 2020, Shroud uses the new EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra Gaming graphics card. Just a heads up, i know it early to comment on it but i figure it helps 😛
Got it, thanks!
He’s now using Alienware 27 Gaming Monitor 2560×1440 240hz as his monitor, confirmed in his commands.
