webcam sites and a new computer

I am in the market of buying a new computer, and I have noticed that alot of the girls in my studio laptops are not up to par and cause choppy feeds (lol they blame the camera for it)

I am wondering what are decent specs to buy laptops for webcamming today.

I don't do cams but from my experience with laptops I would recommend you one of those brands dell, hp, toshiba, sony or mac.

Most of other brands (like Fujitsu-Simens, MSI, Gericom...) are just not worth it.
As for specs go with min. 4GB ram, some nice i3-7 core processor and you'll be fine

A Dual or Quad core processor is recommended for high video quality and speed.
Windows 7 (32bit or 64bit).
2GB or more recommended for high video quality.
A high speed web connection ADSL or cable (1Mbs upload speed is recommended for high video quality and fast frame rate).


Apart from the computer quality the available bandwidth is critical.
When running mega pixel and HQ cams you need a dual or quad core processor. I say dual as they are more common in current laptops as opposed to quad cores.
Windows is necessary (unfortunately) for most (if not all) cam broadcasting programs, splitcam and the majority of cameras.

Toshiba makes one of the better laptops but I don't think there is that much of a difference between major brands.

This is not entirely true.

A fast CPU and lots of RAM is good for your computer's overall speed because Windows is a resource hog. Streaming webcam video not be affected difference if you have 2GB or 4GB of memory. Quad Core is better for overall use of course and is a flat-out requirement for big programs such as video editors, but in streaming chat it won't make much difference I don't think. Anyway, who cares? You can't buy dual core machines anymore unless you go second hand.

What you really care more about is available resources to take advantage of the camera. For example when streaming live video, check your CPU meter. A 2.8 GHz Quad Core machine streaming to any website will probably eat up less than 10% of the total available CPU time if the streaming program is Flash based. Other programs in Windows will eat up more CPU ticks than the video chat program will. If the chat program is based on Windows Media Encoder, it will most definitely eat up more time though.

You need a big machine for capturing and handling high resolution video, but programs used for video chat capture only 320x240 or 480x320 (or in LiveCamNetwork's case, 720x405. The software then crunches it into nice little optimized bites that are sent out over the Internet at a speed you can adjust.

If you have a fast machine but video streaming is slow, try disabling programs you aren't using. Check your system resources and make sure that you don't have any useless programs sucking up precious CPU time.

Yes, thats a shame. MAC's are so much better. Fortunately, Our program http://www.2much.net works on both Macs and PC's.

Toshiba's are nice machines for sure, but we found a real pain in the ass with our Toshiba notebook when it came to video chatting. I forget the spec of the machine, but it was much slower than a desktop machine of the near-same spec. Performance just sucked on it until we realized that some laptops automatically slow down their CPU's when running on battery power, even with the power-save features disabled. Their CPU's also slowed down with the AC power connected when they became too hot. Their fans of course kicked into overdrive for a very annoying whine-y sound.

In the end we scrapped the idea of PC based laptops and remained only with desktops.

The only good alternative we found are the Apple Macbooks and Macbook pro. Outstanding video quality, long batter life, quiet, and FAST FAST FAST.

Yess you can. Apple still has core 2 duos in their lineup. That's one thing stopping me from getting a new Macbook. I wish they'd get on with the times.

Either way, Mark's right. Any non-second hand laptop from $700 and up will do the job just fine.

I am wondering if there are any webcam studios and webcam site reps here to speak on this .

Thanks for all the suggestions. I enjoy Dell I haven't had any problems with them. but the studio will be recommended for Tosiba and also probably Acer.

I cam on a desktop for many years so for me I am not picky but others might think a laptop is needed but they will learn the screen being far won't help much when they need to keep in contact with the customers.

Minnie, stay on desktop PC, i think laptops are fragile for a cam girl :P. Dell laptops have usually Creative webcams, best around... but

you should consider a semi-professional camera like Sony EVI D100, D70, D30, D31. Take a look here on ebay.

These cameras have pan tilt movement, zoom and remote. The video image is pretty good. Be sure you have good lighting.

I ended up getting myself a Toshiba Satellite c650-01W. 300 gig harddrive, 3 gig of ram, dual core, windows 7. I am pretty happy with it. and its about 2.3 ghz

I got for camming for myself logitech pro9000 or the logitech C500/c600.

I have used the Sony EVI cameras I don't like them. I rather have the pan and tilt head from ebenk or trackercam.
