Capture Cards

Post by CanadianPanda »

I wasnt sure where to post this ... but anyways. I'v been playing some halo 3 and other games just messing around and did some trippy stuff id like to transfer to computer and put on youtube and stuff. I'm looking for a capture card that will do video and audio. I'm not sure what to buy and i figure someone on here knows about this more then i do i just want a decent capture card so i can record things form games.

thanks

go to best buy and get the pinnacle sys Capture card. its external, captures audio and video, has an s-video plug in, and only costs $50.

If you don't care about price, you could get the top-of-the-line devices. :3

Both sound good im debating on using my money for a Multibridge Pro or going the cheap way i have the money for either so im not sure......i think i might just go cheap and build a new pc with the other money

edit :nevermind ....a nice card under 100$ would be nice so if any one knows of anything that dose some nice quality let me know.

I'm also looking for a capture card . I just want some decent quality for recording like halo videos and things like that . Maybe some nice games shots using it . better then blurry youtube halo 3 vids ... or that might just be youtube making it blurry... just want some clear quality for recording to pc and saving and then if it needs to be edited for youtube so be it.

Your best bet would be Best Buy or if you have a credit history, check out www.newegg.com. They have great prices for good electronics.
