1080p 21:9 capture card

[DarthSmartt]

I started streaming on twitch recently and I play all my games at 3440x1440p. I stream at 2160x1080p. I need a capture card that can capture 2160x1080. Will a standard 1080p capture card do this, or do I need something special to do this. If so, I need a suggestion for under $125.

Thanks for your help.

A 1080p capture card will not handle 21:9 aspect ratio. I believe you can do it with a 4K capture card but I don't think they have any in your price range (or even double your price). Your options are to either game at 16:9 or you can do what I've done and keep it at 21:9 and then use the empty space for your webcam and other overlay objects (I moved my game play to the bottom of the screen so all of the empty space is at the top but you can make a custom overlay to help cover up the empty space).
