Question / Help Designing a dual PC set-up.

[Nezakhan]

Hi!

I dunno which capture card I need.

My objective is as follows.

To be able to record from PC#1 or PC#2, record audio, camera record, edit, render, and dual/multibox on a second PC at 1080p 60fps.

I found this guide page https://obsproject.com/forum/thread...site&utm_source=sendgrid.com&utm_medium=email and I "think" I'm supposed to go with

• Capture Card, Splitter, different sound options

"Help me Obi-OBS-Kenobi, you are my only hope!"

Well, you need a capture card that can input 1080p at 60fps.

• Avermedia has the LGX and U3 that can do it (I would probably recommend the Live Gamer Extreme).
• Elgato has the HD 60 that should be able to do it.
• Internal you can get the: SC-512N1-L/DVI Component HD and DVI Capture Board
• or the external XCAPTURE-1 USB 3.0 HD Capture Unit but please check those 2 first, I am not totally sure they can do 60fps

Apart of these there are probably some even more expensive cards from Kona or Datapath, maybe Magewell or what they are called.

I looked into Datapath. I may go with one of the higher end brands you mentioned. What I'm hoping is that my build will allow a card like what 12G-SDI DeckLink Models can achieve. Right now I'm trying to figure out if the 12G-SDI DeckLink will work at peak potential connected to a https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/MAXIMUS-VIII-GENE/ motherboard that records from another computer (via splitter?).
