Solved! I cannot afford a computer and is it possible to run a gaming studio with laptop, mic and Webcam

I want to start a YouTube Gaming channel and I have only a laptop, mic and Webcam so can I start a channel with the laptop or I need to buy a computer

A laptop is a computer.
Streaming is easy, streaming and gaming can be difficult.
All depends on Laptop specs, but you have the essentials.

a laptop could never give you the long gaming hours and proper cooling a gaming pc can.

You could also go outside the box. You could pick up a nvidia shieldtv for 200.00 and it will allow you to play most steam games via streaming. You could broadcast via twitch (this is built in functionality on shieldtv) or you could capture the video to a file, export, and edit it on your laptop. This is something you could do for hundreds less than buying a pc and it typically works very well.

You need to let us know the exact model of the laptop.
