I am a budget gamer, been doing most of my gaming on console bcuz it's what I grew up with and most my friends are on xbox but been interested in better graphics and want to record while playing some triple A games, as well as mmorpgs even more since I saw SAO, ALO and GGO. I think it's being bottlenecked by my 950 bcuz some videos mainly ads and the audio play at like 1 fps. My max is $200 for CPU and mobo together and case.
