So recently I have been wanting to record Arma 2: OA, I started up the game and ran Dxtory also. When I got in game my fps was showing 60fps, however when I started recording it dropped to 30, I even reverted to fraps as well but that recorded at even lower FPS. I'm really concerned as my computer before I upgraded it at christmas performed better than this, never used to drop this many frames when recording. Does anyone have a clue on how to fix this?

My PC specifications are:
MSI R7850 Twin Frozr 2GD5/OC
Intel I7 4770k
MSI Z87-G45 GAMING
Samsung 840 EVO 120GB (Boot drive, also runs Arma 2: OA)
Seagate Barracuda ST1000DM003 7200rpm (Clocked at 150mb/s)
Hyper 212 EVO on CPU
Corsair Carbide 500r
750watt PSU
10GB RAM
