Even if you can stream out at 1080p efficiently on your machine, you have to keep your audience in mind, many of whom may not be able to get it on their end smoothly.
Wirecast is really, really nice from what I've seen but it's also $450, I think Xsplit is only $80 for two years if you buy it before the beta ends.
