You'll be able to record most games on medium, some less demanding ones even at high. Just to be safe though, i'd say investing in another 8 GB of ram wouldn't be too bad. RAM is one of the safer investments thesedays.

Also, if you're recording the gameplay video into the same drive you have your game files on(the one you're recording while playing), you'll face severe framerate issues.

Since the system will be reading and processing files off the game installed drive, if you record it to the same drive, it'll have to do the dual process of reading off it and writing on it at the same time, so it'll affect fps. It also depends on read/write speeds of the drive but i'd recommend you record to a separate drive just to be safe.
