You will want a fast storage solution. Dxtory records huge amounts of data at 1080p (tens of gigabytes per minute). A hard drive simply will not be able to keep up.

Wpirobotbuilder is correct. To record 1080p/60fps something huge like a raid 0 or an SSD is needed. Or a Ramdrive.

Not with something like ShadowPlay, it generates small files. Fraps isn't too bad either.

Lol, fraps is the worst for large file sizes. Dxtory + Lagarith lossless is much better.

For the same amount of footage, Dxtory generated files three times larger. Check the link I posted.

Sorry, that articles bullcrap. I don't know what codec they're using but lagarith doesn't use that much storage. One minute of 1080p  bf4 footage is 2-3gb for me.

Then you can't really say the article is inaccurate. They don't mention which codec they used, so there's no way to really be sure.

 

From what you've recorded it looks like they didn't use Lagarith. They might have fixed it to H.264 for all recordings because ShadowPlay has to use it.
