If you own a Nvidia card and have GeForce Experience installed you probably don’t know that you have a nice video recorder implemented. If you’re thinking to buy a license for the extended and complete version I’d honestly try other free (and updated) applications first. I highly suggest you to consider different options, especially because Fraps is not exactly a free program and it’s quite outdated by now. Dropped frames are a gamer’s nightmare and we certainly don’t want to bring those in our videos, right? The second problem I noticed using this recorder is that no matter how smooth my game originally runs, Fraps will always ruin the performance with an ugly stuttering here and there most of the time. Think about compressing that beast and the time you’d waste to still get a huge file in the end. Even with a few seconds you can get a +200 MB file, so think about making a 2 hours long clip instead: you will never be able to store that one without filling your space to the very last byte (unless you have a 2T HDD).
There are two very important reasons why you shouldn’t rely on such a program to record your videos, especially if what you’re seeking is a high quality for smooth and limpid gameplays.Ī common issue related to Fraps is the overly heavy videos the program tends to make. Let’s start saying that if you installed Fraps you probably already noticed it is not one of the best options out there. The most used programs for gameplay recording are currently Nvidia Shadowplay, OBS Studio and Plays TV. You want to start a YouTube channel and upload your gameplays for the first time, but you don’t know how to properly record those on PC without losing quality or getting gigantic sizes that literally eat up your entire hard drive.
