OBS (which is for streaming) does a pretty good job at recording and it has a lot of options (since it was designed for streaming). Obviously as long as the resolution isn't higher than 1080p.įrom other alternatives. So yeah, if someone is planning on recording a lot of stuff - definitely recommend Avermedia LiveGamer HD. But you can see the low impact on performance it has.įrom left: No recording, recording with FRAPS, recording with Avermedia Live Gamer HD (average FPS) I've once did a mini benchmark of it (mostly for friends). It somewhat expensive and it has some issues (mostly either you go or - it can't handle 1080p at higher framerate, the other issue would be - it's a grabber, so unless you're using V-sync, it will capture the v-sync tearing). I guess this really is a hardware issue, ultimately.īut I'm still not sure why the hardware refuses to go all the way up to 99% of usage if necessary.Īnd normally, I'd not recommend it, unless you need to record like an entire game playthrough in a decent quality and fit it all on hard-drive. Unfortunately I do not own a nVidia GPU.Īfter further testing and by setting the frame size to 720p and the framerate to 30 I was able to reduce the performance hit to less than 5 FPS. If you don't know how to use Shadowplay I'll setup a guide, like this I need to complete that though. The really good thing about Shadowplay is how easily I can do 1080p at 60 FPS, I think if you can have 60 FPS you should do it. I've honestly stopped caring about the quality on YouTube, no matter what I do, YouTube will mess it up. Bear in mind you can only get 60 FPS if your game is running at 1080p, if you record at 60 FPS at any other resolution the video will look bad, seeing as it'll lock it at 30. GeForce Experience is really annoying, but ShadowPlay works pretty decently. I have very little space for videos so the tiny high quality videos Shadowplay makes are a god send for me. You have less control than with MSI but honestly the average viewer will never notice the difference and even to me it looks pretty much the same.
I bumped up the contrast and brightness so that the video wouldn't look washed out when on YouTube.
Did you try using Shadowplay instead? I moved to that.
