I am currently using a Radeon HD 7950, which supports h.264 hardware encoding. There is also a desktop and window capturing feature built-in that functions very well if you need that feature.

Bandicam gives you a number of options to adjust in their settings, so getting the right settings will depend on your storage limitations, video card, and resolution. There are options to record your video, a webcam, audio, and even separate audio channels for your gameplay and microphone. Not just any compression, but video hardware compression through a compatible video card. However, unlike FRAPS, Bandicam does video compression. Bandicam allows you to record gameplay and benchmark game just like FRAPS. I no longer have my GTX 970, so nVidia Shadowplay is not available to me, so I found a program called Bandicam. This was the time to find a replacement program. I managed to fill up a 3 Terabyte hard drive while recording H1Z1 gameplay.

A 1080P recording at 60 frames-per-second produces video at over 100 Megabytes per second - meaning a 45-second clip is 3.9 Gigabytes. However, FRAPS has a fatal flaw that has never been addressed and that is the lack of compression.

It was and still is the standard program for running video card benchmarks and recording raw gameplay footage. I’ve been using FRAPS since 2007, where I was using it to benchmark the original Crysis on an unreleased Intel QX9770 system.
