Do I need a capture card for streaming?

Yes and no. You don’t NEED a capture card for PC game streaming. Plenty of beginner streamers don’t have a capture card. However, professional streamers typically use capture cards because they offload streaming tasks to a separate computer, reducing strain on the gaming PC and providing better control. That was if you were a PC gamer. For console gamers, a capture card is an essential need for streaming, as it allows you to capture and broadcast your gameplay. So, while you can start streaming without a capture card, investing in one can greatly improve the quality and efficiency of your streaming setup, especially for console gaming.

Can I connect a camera to my computer with a capture card?

Yes, you can. It allows you to enjoy much higher-quality footage if you connect a DSLR camera (Most DSLR cameras use an HDMI mini input) to your computer and use it as a webcam.

How many HDMI ports do I need for my capture card?

The number of HDMI ports you need for your capture card depends on your intended use. One HDMI port suffices for connecting a camera to your computer or streaming on the same PC that you are gaming with. However, if you plan to stream on a separate PC or stream capture console games, you’ll require both one HDMI input and one HDMI output on your capture card.
