Fraps?

Luman · 18 Oct 2012 at 00:34

It seems Fraps really destroys your fps when recording in game even at 60fps half size, i thought it would mabye take away 10 - 15 fps. Has anyone any suggestions on what settings i should apply or even a different program?

Running GTX 670, i5 3570K.

Actually I was a MSi fan until kkbigal taught me how to use dxtory which is far Superior (tonight)

Get DxTory, FRAPS is old news.

Meh i've never had an issue with msi afterburner besides i use that for my overclocking as well and it's one less application running ( minus dxtory ). I have used Dxtory and ended up uninstalling it shortly after

MSI Afterburner is a great tool considering it's free. The only downside is the fact that you can only use the 2 codecs built into it.

For me, Dxtory coupled with the Lagarith codec is probably the best option available at the moment...I'm getting a strange sense of deja vu

make sure you're recording to a second HDD

Dumb question.
I can only find the screen capture option in my Afterburner, no option to record. Any idea where it is?

using the latest version? on mine its the next tab along from screen capture :confused:

also notice you have no quality slider on your screenshot, seems like an old version to me

Hmm, thought I was. Obviously not. Job for later then.
Ta for that.
