Your YouTube Setup. :D

This is basically my gaming setup

PC Specs:

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3470 CPU @ 3.20 GHz
Memory: 8,00 GB
Video Card: AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series

Hardware:

Hauppauge HD PVR
Blue Snowball Microphone
Sennheiser Headphones
PlayStation 3

Software:

Fraps
Adobe Premiere Pro
Audacity
Camtasia ( for webcam/facecam)
 
I record Gameplay Commentaries, so my setup is basically my PC, monitor, keyboard and mouse (obviously) I use Shadowplay to record game play, Audacity to record audio, and Camtasia to edit. Photoshop for thumbnails/art/icons, and finally, a Blue Snowball microphone, with the best pop filter available. A MOTHAF***** SOCK! Don't have any pics though :(

Hey a Pop Filters a Pop Filter, at the end of the day it's still blocking air hitting the mic. :)
 
I haven't looked through all the posts here, but I have a feeling that I have one of the most unpleasant rooms!

To sum it all up, my setup is decent for my taste and for today's needs, however, I feel like some upgrades may be due quite soon.

3.00GB RAM.
Integrated Intel Series 4 chipset.

I um... I enjoy wireless things. ._.

I think my keyboard is the only thing that isn't wireless.
