Do you agree with my rankings? And which card did I forget to include in this ultimate tier list?
Thanks for your thoughts
I have a question about my capture card whenever I am streaming and I don’t have my headset plugged into the capture card. I have no audio but when it is plugged in, I have audio, but I’m just not able to talk to my friends.
What do u mean by play ur games at a certain hz? I have a 480hz monitor and use a hd60s and still play at 480 hz.
Anything change or best recommendation if you’re getting one exclusively to stream Nintendo switch 2 gameplay? (Already streaming PC games on Twitch using OBS)
