Alright ive been thinking to buy a new harddrive since my current one is pretty slow its the Western Digital Caviar® GreenPower™ 1TB.
First here is my comuter :
Nvidia evga gtx 480 superclocked
AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition 3.4 ghz quad core
Windows 7 64 bit
Corsair TX 750W PSU
Western Digital Caviar® GreenPower? 1TB
ASUS M4A79T Deluxe, Socket-AM3
Corsair XMS3 DDR3 1600MHz 4GB CL9
Cabinet : Antec Nine Hundred Midi Tower Sort
But i have a real problem with fraps cause i get very nice performance in games and get 60 fps in most games but when i try to record with fraps then it freezes alot and fps goes 1-17 but sometimes i get high fps with recording but it still freezes alot.
I tried to email fraps and explain my problem and he said it might be my harddrives slow speed since i had a "green" harddrive thats designed to have less power for less power consume.
But i also tried to record with a external harddrive with fraps and with it i did get alot less freezes and 17-20 fps so i think my harddrive might be the problem. So im wondering if fraps recvording might be better if i buy a WD VelociRaptor® 300GB SATA with 10000 RPM ? Because the fraps guy recommended a harddrive for fraps with 7400 RPM +
I wanna full hd and still have smooth recording with fraps and do you guys think it will be better if i buy that harddisc ?
And installing a new harddrive is it very complicated ?
