Hardware Needed for 30+ Cams in BI

[RandomQ]

I currently have 16 2mp cams in my BI system, and adding an additional 7 4MP cams this week. But I may have to add more cams in the next 2 months.

What kind of hardware are people running for 30+ systems? Currently have a I7-7700

Lots of variables, for example frame rate and hardware acceleration for two anyway. A dedicated I7-7700 should be able to handle that with no problem assuming the system is configured properly.
