What do I need to become a gaming youtuber?

For your PC you'll need a good internet connection, lots of hard drive space (500 Gigs minimum because gaming files will be large) and a decent video card that will let you play and record games at decent settings.

For a video editor I use Camtasia Studio 8 which is very simple. You can get a free 30 day trail from their website to see if you like it. Sony Vegas is an excellent editor but has a large learning curve, but worth the time. Unfortunately both are pretty expensive (around 300 - 500 depending on where you live). There are free editors out there that are decent though.

For video capture to record your game footage Fraps and Bandicam are the two most used. I found Bandicam is great if your recording video from a browser based game since it lets you shrink the recording screen easier. Fraps is what you'll generally use though. Both programs will cost around 30 dollars

For a mic I use a Blue Snowball which costs around 50 dollars and works really well. There are newer ones like the Yeti that I've heard mixed reviews on.

Webcams can be super cheap to super expensive. Whatever one you get you want the highest picture quality and the ability to record in HD

Hope that helps
