This question has been asked a billion times, let me put it simply: I record with FRAPS. The more memory taken up in the HDD FRAPS stores it's videos to, to less FPS you get while recording. Don't ask why, it's just a wacky thing FRAPS does. I also didn't mean is it compatible, I meant will it run smoothly. EX: is the power supply enough? Is the cooling enough? Etc. Thanks for the help though.

FRAPS is a beast and there's no getting around it. If you can assign your game to cores 0-3 and FRAPS to cores 6 and 7, that should help alleviate any issues with CPU utilization. Your motherboard does accept DDR3-1866 RAM so you may want to step up from the DDR3-1600 your currently have.

When I said, "The system looks fine", I meant I didn't see any glaring issues. Nothing about your build raised any issues for me (your power supply is fine). However on a closer look, it seems your case only has a single front 120mm intake fan. I would definitely add a 120mm rear exhaust fan. I prefer Scythe.

Hi Spydex!

Yes, all parts are compatible.

Will you be recording at greater than 30fps ?

I'm going to try to record at the highest FPS possible. :)

Cool, thanks. How much would a rear 120mm fan be? Also how can I assign tasks to cores? That's pretty cool.
