seeking recommendations

[Trovata]

Currently I have and use an older HP laptop that I purchased in 2009.  It has been an amazing product with no complaints or concerns.  Unfortunately, this device is not viable for my new adventure in gaming and streaming as it is unable to support key features and programs needed to enhance the audience experience.   I currently game on console and am not necessarily looking for a pc to game on (not yet anyway).  What I am looking for is to find something that will allow maximization of viewer experience with broadcasting software and add-ons that will allow increased interaction for a steadily growing community. I'm honestly not sure if this is the place to seek recommendations and support in acquiring such a device, and I am not looking for anything over the top fancy. I am not very knowledgeable on current products and am reaching out here in hopes of some assistance.  Is there a basic level  of product I can look for that can support broadcasting software and maintain compatibility to enhance the experience of viewers?   My community is growing quickly and I want to ensure they are having the best possible experience.  Thank you in advance.

@Trovata , welcome to the forum.

I don't make recommendations often, but this is a laptop that should do what you need.  You should read all of the information to see what it has to offer.  Let me know if it is more than you want to spend.  If so, what is a good price?

@Trovata  could you be more specific as to what you mean by broadcasting since you're using a gaming console?

Are you talking about streaming to Twitch or similar?
