Recording 1440p gameplay?

[Circs]

I've got a 290X and an MG279Q and I play highly modded Skyrim, which is of course quite the frame rate pig. DXtory doesn't work with modded Skyrim, Afterburner kicks your FPS in the teeth and OBS just captures a black screen. Fraps is inefficient to the point of hilarity (literally halves my FPS) and I can't find any capture devices that do 1440p.

 

I've got multiple drives and SSDs so I'm not storage bottlenecked in any way and my 4670k seems like it'd be beefy enough.

 

What's a guy gotta do to capture 1440p@60fps? I've basically resigned myself to buying a device of some sort, but they all seem to be limited to 1080p.

OBS supports any resolution IIRC so it's all in how you have it set up.

if game capture in OBS doesn't work, use window capture.

I can get a 1440p black screen from OBS, but that's it.

Try 2559x1439 and see if the problem's still there?

I'll give it a go, but from what I've found so far it has to do with how ENB hooks into the rendering pipeline.

I wouldn't be surprised if ENB breaks something.

It "fixes" stuff (imo ENB in driver san francisco looks fucking awful) but breaks any real ability to stream it

Tons of YouTubers have got it working, but they're doing 1080p and there are tons more options around that resolution. There are even cheapish devices that capture from HDMI at that resolution.

Yeah.

What'cha need 1440p for? Last I checked Youtube doesn't support 1440p60.

More pixels are always better, plus I don't want to run at a non-native resolution just to capture gameplay.
