Best Software to Record Gameplay in PC

Arunalan Arno · Oct 31, 2016

I love playing games and recording them to upload in youtube. So far i have been using FRAPS but now i heard Open Broadcast Software is better in many ways than FRAPS. So i installed the latest version (0.16.2),my desktop capture is fine but it lags in game capture.I get a black screen only with audio.I even tried with different settings,no matter what i do still lags

I even tried with XSplit Gamecaster and faced the same problem.My pc spec is

CPU: Athlon x2 250
GPU: Radeon R9 270x 2gb
RAM: 8gb
OS: Windows 10-64 bit

Next i'm gonna try with Nvidia Shadowplay.Somebody please say which is the best software to live stream in youtube and record games.And is my pc spec enough or i can't stream with this spec.

Your CPU is way to weak to record gameplay.
You can't use Shadowplay without an Nvidia GPU.
You need a new motherboard and CPU. (Which will also require you to reinstall windows)

And RAM..

Oh bummer, you can't use shadowplay. I've been using it and it's great!

Xsplit or OBS are the best options for you. I suggest reading a bunch of guides on youtube for OBS as it is a bit complicated, but once you get the hang of it, you'll like what it can do.

You could give Dxtory a try, although it isn't free. You can record multiple audio streams at once making it easier to edit videos and I seem to remember getting better fps than FRAPS. I used that before I got an Nvidia GPU and switched to Shadowplay.

WTF??? My mobo has an inbuilt nvidia gpu, can't i still use shadowplay?

James Mason :

I agree and thanks for your reply

Arunalan Arno :

Doesn't matter. If your plugging your monitor into an AMD GPU then you can't use shadowplay.

Plus, even with shadowplay you still need a CPU upgrade.

I use Shadowplay and its really great without (or almost no) impact on performance. For AMD cards, there is an alternative progam with similar functionality. I never used it, so can't say anything about performance and functionality.

Thank you very much dude

No problem. Just try it out. The system requirements on official site says it needs 4 core cpu and yours is 2 core. Maybe it would work, as the video capture feature uses the graphics card.
