[QUOTE="Klept, post: 137763, member: 28874"] Has little to do with CPU and MUCH to do with a wicked fast GPU on your Video card. I'm at 500mhz GPU, and 1000mhz ram on my 6600gt. I would suggest atleast that much. When I am recording HDTV with the Pure Video codecs, my CPU utilization is at about 30%.
