Video Capture

[Guest]

If i have an AMD 7950 and I wanted to record my gameplay could i use my old Hd 5450 to record it, to reduce the stress from the 7950? or can i put a 9600 GT to capture video while the 7950 plays the game?

When have you been able to use another card to record a card?

EDIT: no you cant use a card to record another card. Doesnt work that way.

To record videos you don't actually use a GPU, you would use a video capture card, like this to reduce the stress from your CPU not GPU when recording.

Unless you have hardware recording such as a capture card or use Mrillis Action! then most recording is CPU intensive, it's all encoded using the CPU

also its ussually Hard drive that takes up alot too so you would need to have a seperate HDD to record to.. also use something like OBS which you can play in a resolution and record in a different resolution.
