This PC is used for encoding video. It is the computer that all of the webcams are attached to, and is therefore used for meetings. I need to use the OBS virtual webcam because my physical webcam is mounted upside-down and this needs to be fixed in software. Also, a capture card is connected to this computer, which is linked to the output of the KVM switch, so it can injest video from whatever computer I'm using at the time.

The computer uses my old server's CPU and motherboard, power supply and case, and has a simple Quadro connected to it so it can use hardware encoding for video. The picture does not show the GPU connected.
