Do you need powerful computer for the recording ?

Hi, I was wondering, I don't want at the moment to Stream the games I play, but a DS Capture Card would be nice to record some of my games and then upload this to YouTube.

But for the recording itself does it require a powerful computer ?

I ask because on the emulator on my computer the games are slow (DS emulator)

Thanks for your replies :)

PS: With which software can I record the audio ? I understood you need a specific cable to connect the DS to the computer but the software "DS Capture" records the video but how do I record the sound ?

thx

It did not seem to require a blazing fast processor(It worked fine on a 2 GHZ dual core processor) but it would still help to know what processor you have.

As for audio, the software records the audio natively as long as you have a male to male headphone cable from your DS to your computer.

I would still go for something a bit more modern than dual core processors if your budget allows for it though. The new coffee Lake i5 8400 is a beast at that pricepoint.
