thanks

It seems ok.. but I suggest getting a higher RAM also get a portable hard drive and store your recordings on there. HD PVR files are huge!

Yeah, it looks pretty good for an HD PVR, although it says it's sold out on the website :confused:

Looks about right mate .

yeah, you would usually just need at least 1GB of RAM and DUAL Processors, it should work decently.

iv got a disk space with 66 gb on it free, would that be enough?

These files can get past 1gb easily per recording.. I suggets getting a 1TB portable hard drive for around £75

If you plan on keeping the recordings after you edit them then yeah you might want a bigger hdd. I delete my videos after I edit and upload them, so I don't need a huge hdd. 66GB is fine, unless you want to keep all recordings. A decent graphics card helps too especially with playback. The recording software supports hardware acceleration. After you get everything check out my thread on hd pvr setup and render settings for sony vegas here: You must login or register to view this content.

get an external HDD I record in SD with a dazzle an a whole domination game for me is like 12 GB, not joking you really would want a bigger HDD. As who really wants to back out of the lobby every game to edit their footage to cut up clips and render etc. Believe me it sucks as thats what I usually have to do.
