So I am looking at getting a capture system so I can get screens and videos mostly for guides. I know that some of the Users of Giantbomb have capture systems and since the community is so knowledgeable I was wondering if anyone could fill me in on their personal capture system or just a good option. I would prefer to be able to capture HD but its not really a requirement for me.
Anyway thanks for the help

I know Brukaoru had some sort of capture system... but I think it might have been for Macs.... Might want to try and PM her.

There's also this, which is cheaper than the other black magic device.

The BlackMagic Intensity is pricey, but it's quite good.

A pimp-nasty PC with bitchin-fast drives is abso-fucking-lutely necessary to capture in HD, otherwise you'll get dropped frames.
 
There's also the Blitzbox and soon Blitzbox HD:

Well I am working on a nice PC right now that I am going to build in a month or so hopefully so I should not have to many issues with the PC.
