FPS cuts down in half while recording.

[Metaton]

This is getting on my nerves now...
System specs:
FX 8320@4.5Ghz
R9 390
20Gigs of ram at 1333.
ADATA 560/510 SSD
Win7
So lets say i wanna record R6S. I'm playin 1080p Maxed out settings except AA. I play at around the 70~120ish range. Pretty wild gap there but the avarage is at the 90ish area.
While i try to record. Doesnt matter which software. I instantly go down to max 60fps. And it dips down to the 40ish area which can be feel as laggy.
Theres no way in hell to record like that in 1080p60fps... Now i thought that, Awh OBS is using x264 which is CPU demanding so probably i get lower fps cuz of its eating up my CPU. So then i go ahead and try Bandicam Lagarith codec and other which are thought less likely to eat cpu but give a "losless" record which eats up your SSD/HDD. My SSD could handle the filesize. YET. Still drop into the same or around the same area...
Now whatta hell seriously...
And this is a clean Win7 install. Everything is clean installed. I think i'll take a try with Win10...But i have my doubts.

the recorder software makes your max fps 60 because thats all it can record (at least for most recording software)

Everybody's FPS drops when recording no matter what CPU they have. 

 

Streaming and playing games is demanding task. 

 

Intel is better at this but FPS will drop as well. 

 

We haven't reached the GPU and CPU generation capable of keeping its performance high enough for unnoticeable diference in user experience.

 

My advice is: lower the ingame settings when u stream.

 

U aren't doing anything wrong, it's just hardware issue.

Naah that cannot be the case. Becouse i can see it goes above few times (veeeery rarely) 60... But even so that has nothing to do with those laggy dips...

@metaton well in that case thorny is probobly right

Not streaming . Just local record. Thats crazy... I better go and just set up a sec small pc or a laptop to record it via local network or something.

Or stop recording, and enjoy the game...

Oh sorry. 

U should still see fps dips. It's normal since your CPU is doing the work. 

 

Seeing such big drops even with AMD record software is strange IMO. But I guess B6S is just too demanding for your setup.

 

Is the same in very light games like CSGO and such ?
