So a friend of mine and I (others, too) have decided to start up a Youtube PC (a little console also) gaming channel. Let me ask my several questions separately.

1. What video capture software would be the best (when it comes to fps and video quality) for playing games along the lines of Warframe, CS:GO, Guild Wars 2, and Left 4 Dead 2. I am not concerned about file sizes and whatnot, as I have plenty of room to keep my files saved in. I am looking for best quality and fastest fps possible, and I know that all depends on my computers specs, which I will discuss in my next question.

2. What part of my build would theoretically deter my fps when recording? My build:

CPU: AMD FX 6300

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti (I would think this would cause the most problems)

Motherboard: Asus M5A97 LE R2.0

RAM: 2GB UNKNOWN (This I know for sure won't be the problem, as I am going to upgrade it to 2-4 sticks of 4gb/stick

SSD: Crucial 128gb

HDD: 1tb

Power Supply: 750w

Thank you for anyone who answers, and also would a Blue Snowball microphone be good for what I'm doing? Thank you again.
