Video recording with low tax on hardware? [nVidia]
« on: 02 November, 2013, 02:39:39 PM »
Hey, just a heads-up for those of you that are recording video of gameplay...

EchelonIV just introduced me to this new thing included in nVidia drivers, ShadowPlay.
Allegedly it will use something like 5% of your GPU power to record whatever you're playing, and it records always, so you just hit a button to get those last 10 minutes saved (something cool happened, won an awesome fight, whatever)...

So check it out if you have an nVidia GPU!

That sounds great! And if I finally end up with a new pc (after a new house perhaps) it might very well influence what I buy!  8)

Tried it - works well on the GTX970...

I dislike the available options, though. C'mon - 10.000kbit/s and 30fps is lowest quality you can choose? 3.000-4000 kbit/s is more than enough for casual recording in 1920x1200... I mean - you CAN go higher if you want, right?

That being said - with lowest quality I can write the last 20min to disk whenever I want - brillant.
