I'm looking to replace my current cameras and add 4 more, so I'll need to upgrade my Blue Iris machine since it tops out at CPU usage a lot.

Looking over at the wiki (Choosing Hardware for Blue Iris | IP Cam Talk), there are some great recommendations, but it doesn't really give any specifics on how much cameras each processor can handle.

At minimum, what type of processor should I be looking at for 8 4mp cameras, that will be running at 2688x1520 and around 20 fps? I'd like to be recording 24/7. Blue Iris is great, but it's missed some stuff for me in the past.

Would a i5-6400 be enough?

Thanks
