CoD4 Demo Maxed at 1080p

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Demo running on Vista @ 1920x1080 4xAA, max settings.

Just a test of FRAPS and it worked well enough, it dipped below double digits for a few seconds, but most of the time it runs at playable enough FPS. An odd glitch occurred with FRAPS though. During the loading phase, with the overview (which I didn't record, of course), FRAPS had the FPS listed around 500 to 600, which is impossible.

I may be able to get a smooth FRAPS experience if I ran it at 1280x720 (720p)

Specs:

Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit
CPU: Core 2 Duo E5200 2.5GHz (no OC)
GPU: Powercolor Radeon 4870 (No additional OC)
4GB RAM in Dual Channel (2x2GB)
Monitor: BenQ 21.5" 1920x1080 16:9 HD resolution

so lag for 4 gb ram :/

@LostBladeXxX It's not the RAM, it's FRAPS eating up resources like it's wont to do.

[quoshon100]

is this raw footage

[KageNoAku]

@quoshon100 No. Raw FRAPS footage is very large in file size. After just a couple minutes or so @1080p, it would hit 4GB.

If I know where do you live... I will stole your RAM and your monitor...

@TriggerHappyGamiing ppl just hate cod b/c of its popularity. Ppl in my school play cod4 and mw2 alot. Most of them dont even know tf2,half life 2, css, etc. It's like ppl are choosing cod as the number 1 fps shooter. But it does get old pretty quickly. i like halo 3, cus its the only game where i can t bag more effectively. :D Plus, halo isnt a hardcore game, and non hardcore games dont make me tense.

I think it is decent. Not my fave series by far (only played this one and WaW), but I can see why it has a bit following.

[KageNoAku]

I think I've tried both of them, and they both worked for me. One of them is probably better, for filesizes though.

Virtualdubhack is a checkable option on the right side of the configurations for x264.

@KageNoAku

Is it "Single pass - rate-factor base (CRF)" or "Single pass - quantizer based (CQP)"?

Also, how do I activate VirtualDubHack?

[KageNoAku]

I tend to just leave them on defaults mostly (activate virtualdubhack, leave it set to 26 on the compression bar)
