So, I just updated my GeForce experience and I have been thinking of uploading some videos of my Rift gameplay. I was just wondering if anyone has any experience from using Shadowplay yet. Does it really not affect your performance at all? I have Gigabyte GTX 660, so I should probably be able to record at least 720p video, right? So, if anyone has tried it, can you post some tips what I should take into consideration when using it. Also this is my first post and I'm a total newbie here, so any replies are much appreciated :)

I used it with my most demanding game graphically which was Crysis 2 on max settings. I have an MSI GTX 760 Gaming Edition and I play at 1080p so it ran fairly well and I did not notice any stuttering or slowdown. The file sizes were also a HELL of a lot better than what I get using FRAPS.

 

Edit: Forgot to mention that there is unfortunately no current windows sound recording support with Shadowplay but I anticipate that will change in the future. And if you would like to see the recording I did with Crysis 2 along with the FPS counter in the corner, here is a link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46YrDlulEHA

if you want even better performance, disable shadowplay so that it doesnt record all the time. 

If you disable that, it works just like fraps/dxtory
