What do video game reviewers use to record footage of games?

What do video game reviewers use to record footage of games? I'm guessing it's something they put on the cable between the computer and the monitor rather than an internal program that uses system resources while it records. I use FRAPs at the moment and it's practically worthless since I have to turn down the graphics in the game so it can record at a decent framerate. What is the specific name for this device and where can I get one cheap?
