amv2mt is a codec by the way, what it does is shrinks the recording down enough that it won't cause problems when it reaches the HDD.
It also has quality control settings, so you can make the file smaller/bigger.
But even with this you either need an HDD fast enough to get all the data, or you can just cut to the chase and get an SSD.
SSD is incredibly fast, and should be pretty much guaranteed to get the data with no issues.
Once it goes on there, just copy the files somewhere else.
When Spazbo feels like it he might post a tutorial or something (Unless he already did).

You need an SSD to record USB 3.0 footage properly
where are you going to get an external drive that has an ssd in it?
i record my pc and 1080p xbox one longplays on this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product...6822152409 and it records all my pc games just fine at 60 fps, as long as you dont go higher than 720p, which is what pc longplays are to be recorded at, then you are fine, and as long as you use the right codec when recording 1080p in lossless then it is fine for that too

i paid about $300 for my desktop
decent case, motherboard, cpu, and power supply for about $120 from a friend
ram was 8gb and cost me about $80 i think
cpu was amd phenom 2 x4 970 @ 3.5 GHz
gpu was nvidia gtx 650ti which is good enough for any game that was made before 2013 that did not need super graphics to play on, so basically it could play the same graphics as an xbox 360 or ps3 game and it cost me a little over $100 i think, not you might be able to get one for $80 or less
i've put in several old hdds that i've had from laptops in there, i would suggest a 320 hdd for the OS and games and get a 2tb hdd, external or internal it doesnt matter as long as the external is usb 3.0, for recording games
so getting a $500 desktop computer will let you do pc longplays as long as the games are either telltale games or games that are a couple of years old or not very demanding indie games
