My hdtv in room goes up to 1080i put I play on 720p as 1080i is slow in terms of frames per second causing slow reactions on cod4.

I need a hd capture card that can capture 720p. I don't use the HDMI cable, just the hdtv one (red, blue green wires + another red + white for audio).

Moneys not really a problem; I have £200 for MW2, Cap Card and Turtle Beaches so depending on the cap card, depends on what version of mw2, what tb's etc

The cheapest HD Capture Card is the Black Magic Intensity Pro, this let's you record in HD and play in HD although you need a decent pc to run it. The Hauppauge HD PVR is another great HD capture card that lets you record in HD (up to 1080i) and play in HD. There is an option called HAVA HD Platinum, this let's you play in HD but record in SD, it's like £100 I think.

Black Magic - £120 to £150
Hauppauge - £160
HAVA HD Platinum - £100 to £120

You just need two HDMI cables.
One connects from your Xbox to the Card and the other connects from the Card to the TV.
I'd get a Hauppauge both can only record up to 1080i anyway

It seems to me that the Blackmagic intensity pro is cheaper?
