So basically the title says it all, but, I would like to start recording my video gaming, atleast some of it, and posting it to youtube, so my friends can see.
I need help with just some stuff... I don't know what the best video editing program is, so if you guys can recommend any to me that would be great! Also, should I upgrade anything on my pc? Like in case I take this more seriously in the future? For the video capturing I think I am just going to use the Geforce shadowplay... I've fooled around with it before, and it seems like its good and reliable? If you guys think I should use a capture card, then what do you think i should get for a capture card?

My system:
i5-4670k CPU
Asus z87 MOBO
Asus gtx 770 GPU
8gb RAM
120gb SSD
1tb HDD
I think that's about all the important stuff...

If theres anything more you guys need to know, just ask!:)
Thanks a lot for reading!

Hey man, looks like you are pretty set with the hardware. Shadowplay is great for recordings, clear, low system stress and easy to use. I personally use Sony Vegas to edit videos as it is a very nice piece of software but you can use something like moviemaker to edit in the parts you desire, that should be fine.
