I tried recording with Nvidia's Shadow play today but it seems than no matter what settings I use or change my recording is insanely choppy literally plays stops plays again. When recording im getting over 100fps no lag whatsoever. I have a pretty decent rig here are my specs

OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1
CPU: Intel Core i7 3770 @ 3.40GHz
RAM: 12.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 798MHz
Motherboard: PCI-E x16
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GT 770 4GB STOCK OC
HardDrive: SATA-III 2TB Read 161.1, Write 154.3

Any help would be appreciated.

So you only have one drive in this pc?
It's because the HDD can't keep up with all the tasks you're giving it.
a HDD running windows is working, add a game and it's stressed, then add writing a video file and you defently will get choppy video.

BORING STUFF!
so the HDD doesn't actually have speed and therefore the time to write all the frames down, therefore you'll see these choppy videos.
I tried AMD's version, ran perfectly fine on my SSD (which you SHOULDN'T use AT ALL for constant writing like this, but i just did a quick test). Then i switched to the HDD and oh my.. choppy video and even choppy gameplay with AMD's recorder...

But i found a solution to the problem! It's only the constant write when gaming that the HDD can't...

But i found a solution to the problem! It's only the constant write when gaming that the HDD can't handle, so I've downloaded RAMDisk, which makes a ammount of RAM that you choose appear as a drive, this fake drive is lightning fast and beats SSDs by a mile. I only have 8GB of RAM so I've made a 1GB drive, adjusted my prerecord/replay recording settings so they would record 3min of ~300MB/min recording, and most important i placed the temporary recording file directory at the RAM fake drive.


BOTTOM LINE
RAMDisk allows you to make a up to 4GB drive of your RAM for free (anything above that and the program will cost you), you could probably setup a decent quality 1080p recording that lasts 10min if you made a 4GB drive.
Just make a RAMDisk and set the temporary file directory to that drive, remember to still have finished/recorded videos in a folder on your HDD.

Hope this helped! :p
