Valkyraeโ€™s streaming setup is a mix of style, performance, and creator-ready toolsโ€”perfectly suited for her high-profile presence across YouTube and Twitch. She uses the lightweight Finalmouse Ultralight X mouse for gaming and a custom mechanical keyboard from MintSludge, adding a personal touch to her desk. A full look at her keyboard was shared in this clip, showcasing its unique design and sound.

For audio, Valkyrae relies on the studio-quality Electro-Voice RE20 microphone, processed through the TC-Helicon GoXLR mixer to ensure clear and consistent voice output. She occasionally uses the Drop + Sennheiser PC38X headset during streams when needed. Her visuals are captured with the Sony A6400 camera, and she uses the Neewer RL-18 ring light for soft, flattering lighting.

Her PC is custom-built by PowerGPU, with key specs listed below.
