So I Just Got a R9 280X

[Guest]

The picture quality on the the Game DVR is noticeably worse than on Geforce Experience. It's not terrible but a bit choppier and noticeably so, also the colors/textures are noticeably worse. Is there anything I can do?

[Askew]

Buy an Nvidia card again or use software like DXtory/MSI Afterburner to record and one of the software codecs.

 

I am of course assuming that you've been into the settings menu.

Rant at AMD for crappy products.

Can MSI Afterburner even do that? JW

Nothing Wrong with AMD cards, just the processors

Yes, you can install codecs and record gameplay with MSI Afterburner.

Agreed. Preach.

 Yes I have been into the settings and set it for the highest quality recording i.e. 1080p, 60FPS, @ 50MB/s. It also kicks out much more heat than my last ASUS GTX 770. My 280X has the Windforce Cooler on it. 

 

Disclaimer: Not an NVIDIA fanboy, I have cards from both companies, just pointing out facts.

What happen with 770? Why you are not using it anymore?

Have you tried using other recording software such as fraps, bandicam, dxtory, xplit, obs, etc...?

I think some have the option for H.264 encoding but I'm not sure if it will be enabled with your AMD GPU. It could possibly be an issue with the H.264 encoder AMD uses in their graphics cards, although it should technically be exactly the same and nvidia...

 

I'm really happy with my ASUS 770 and Shadowplay. Works great. My videos have much better image quality while not being a huge file.

However if you go Aftermarket coolers then you can get some amazing Idle and Load temps..

Tri-X is AMAZING for that

[APrettyCoolWalrus]

What's the point of getting a 280x when you have a 770?

[RyanShep97]

Tri-X is AMAZING for that

 

I've got the Asus MATRIX R9 280X and its AMAZING too

Game DVR only entered beta recently, didn't it? I imagine it'll get better with some more time.
