Xfire Vs Fraps Comparison

[Frag3r99]

... MY fraps lags .. My pc is good i5 quad gtx 560 1gb 4 gb ram.. People say its HDD .. So what should i do with it?

[Falco164]

@Frag3r99 You forgot to mention the most important part of that. What hard drive are you using?

[Frag3r99]

@Falco164 1TB SATA3 6GB/s

[Falco164]

@Frag3r99 Even if you're using a "slow" 5400rpm drive, it wouldn't lag due to recording speed. Most likely it's either due to you recording at a lower frames per second than you usually play games at and it looks laggy, or your graphics settings in the game in question are high enough that when you add fraps' recording to it, it makes it choppy.

[Frag3r99]

@Falco164 Well it don't lag when recording Garrysmod, Team fortress2.. But it lags when homefront, battlefield3... Usually bf3 has 50-120 fps on High And 50-80 on ultra... But it has fps drops when record.. it doesn't lag all time only fps drops..

Maybe its cuz 32 bit home premium windows 7 ? Because my pc is powerfull enough

[GregRK7]

what xbox game is this?

[MosleyPC]

@GregRK7 /facepalm. It's Unreal Tournament 3 for PC... Good luck trying to record xbox with Fraps or Xfire.

[GregRK7]

@MosleyPC Trolololol

[TheMentalLizard]

I would have bought Fraps if I didn't have to pay through paypal >.>

[MosleyPC]

@TheMentalLizard Torrent.

For Valve Source Games, like Left 4 Dead, use demo recording... (record ~filename~, stop, etc.), than in the demo playback, use XFire... that's what I do...

[theintunity]

Fraps, owns in quality, and if you have a good GPU power, you can handle good with it.... i have a verry good pc and make cod movies with fraps, i have awesome quality.... i am still not glad with my quality... but it is good enough, i edit it with sony vegas pro 10, best editing program, i use fraps version 3.4.6, latest version....

If you guys realy like high defenition gaming movies... then you should look at mine, but i am very bad in cod, so dont blame on me that i SUCK XDDDD

liked for the song

[serry360]

@Fakco164 thanks for the helpful vid but what do you use to merge the segments of fraps recording? Mine only makes videos up to 3.9gbs then makes a new segment. Also what editing software do you use? Thanks again.

[danno6466]

Thanks this helped my decision making.

[TheEmbe1]

Fraps is better

[JohanJ2000]

@TheEmbe1 much better

[TheDeathCrafter]

@TheEmbe1 Yes, but it costs money.

[mw2randomlycrazy25]

I dont know what this games is and i dont care, but all i know is your good...

[MosleyPC]

@mw2randomlycrazy25 It's Unreal Tournament 3 and he's garbage. It's just that the people he's playing against are completely retarded.

[AntiVideosHD]

[Falco164]

@AntiVideosHD It's Unreal Tournament 3 by Epic Games.
