    Hauppage HD PVR is the most popular one (it's also the one I've got)
    It's really good, easy to use and you can always depend on it :]

    There's also a capture card called Black Magic Intensity Pro. It's not as popular and I've never tried it. It costs more than the Hauppage, but the quality is supposed to be better.

    The main difference is that Hauppage records in 1080i(= 720p) and Black Magic in 1080p.

        The Black Magic WILL NOT pass through 1080p from a PS3/Xbox to the PC. It's a long drawn out explanation but short story it doesn't work.

        Get an HD PVR.

          Hawkes, you should thank Bronco xD

          You'd have been fuuuucked, plus Countach did say the other is much easier to use, and for someone who is new to it, its going to be the best choice imo..

              I´ve got the HDPVR, but I would recomend you look up something called "Elgato game capture", it allows you to play trough ur HDMI cable;) and I´ve seen that alot of the big youtubers are switching over from HDPVR´s to this one!

                The Black Magic is still a good card though, don't get me wrong. You just won't be able to play in 1080p. It will look the same as the cheaper HD PVR in 720p.

                The Black Magic only supports 1080p:23.98 and 1080p:24. Your TV is either 1080p:60 or 1080p:120.

                  Ended up getting the HD PVR2 gamers edition. Have it almost set up, have to download the updated program for my laptop. Then it will be all set up. 😄

                      Does it still come with TotalMedia Extreme? If so that software is easy as fuck to use.
