    Is UVC for webcams better than one without?

    Hi,

    I need a webcam for skype and apart from decent image quality, my main priority is minimum CPU usage... so i did some research and discovered the UVC ones are driverless - does this mean they will use less cpu? For example - Hercules Dualpix Exchange - Webcams - Hercules

    does this have a built in processor working on the video, so the computer's cpu can do other tasks??

    thanks!
