Yet some more question cause i still need some help figuring this out.
I run:
-3770k @ 3,5ghz (turbo boost to 3,9)
-660TI power edition OC
-16 gb ram (1600)
-Samsung 840 (OS + games located there)
-2TB HDD 7200 RPM, Recordings go there)
1)When i play CS:GO i get roughly 160-320 FPS, awesome.
But when i start recording in the external H.264 codec @ 1920 x 1080 @ 30 fps my
fps drop to around 80-160. Which i already find fascinating (how can i lose a good 100 fps to record at 30 fps?)
But besides that the game just starts to feel laggy. It doens't run smooth anymore. It feel like 30 fps while the meter shows i have 80-150. Can somebody explain this to me? What is going wrong here. Cause this is not only in CS:GO, (a not so graphic hard game), but also in other games that are more demanding
2)How GPU intensive is Bandicam (I just can't find it on the internet). How does it work? When you press the record button the program starts recording your game over the GPU? sends it to the CPU to process and HDD to write it down? Can somebody maby explain this easy to me or give me a link (would be super happy with that ) cause i want to know.
3) What part could I upgrade best on my PC to prevent the lagg? Since i still consider my pc good to play 95% of the games on high / ultra settings so i am kinda lost on why with recording FPS drop so much.
