Why not buy the external, and every time you capture video move everything you want to keep onto the external? Especially on CS:S, where you have nice demo files...
It will run worse, unless you're doing disk transfer on the same disk you're recording fraps to for some reason?White-Fusion wrote:

Can't be my rig.
Doesn't hurt to verify your good to go. http://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?id=48062White-Fusion wrote:

and yeah, it's your rig.
At what resolution? That's really what kills performance with fraps.White-Fusion wrote:

On CSS, it shouldn't be sluggish = /

The max fraps will record is like 11-- x 9--. If you're in-game resolution is higher than that is halves the resolution is records at.White-Fusion wrote:

FM: I will put the res down as I might of had it really high (22" samsung)
I find it easier to phrase things like that rather than telling people to look at the back of their TV's to get model numbers..lol ..Sup wrote:

It runs perfect, but when I turn really suddenly or similar it's like there are lines, and it sort of flickers. Very hard to explain though = /Flaming_Maniac wrote:

If you want I can compare with you, I have CS:S and a comparable rig. 150gb raptor, e6750, 8800GT, XFX 680i
It is okay when filming now, but when watching, every 2-5 seconds it will pause for a second.Flaming_Maniac wrote:
Graphics drivers updated? FRAPS updated? It sounds like some sort of driver problem.
What's e-sata? = /unnamednewbie13 wrote:
There's very little reason to go USB nowadays when you can use eSATA instead.
a red connector at the back of your mobo for connecting external HDD's.White-Fusion wrote:

external sata. basically a stat port on the I/O part of the mobo with the usb ports, nic, and onboard soundWhite-Fusion wrote:

Mine has one on the inside, it's a A8N32-SLI Deluxe. A standard mobo.....from several years ago.[CANADA]_Zenmaster wrote:
I fraps everything to a second internal SATA drive. If you want to do it right get a second internal drive; don't try to force the data over your usb bus. And yes you will see a noticeable improvement using a second HD to record to.
Meh I should have read someone mentioned eSata, thats great but I doubt anyones mobo here has it unless they just built their comp
That's the old fraps. I can record 1280x1024 @ 60fps constant. I'm not sure why your rig can't. I have an E6750 and an 8800GT, fraps writes data to my spare PATA 7200rpm drive.Flaming_Maniac wrote:

The fraps file is uncompressed, try compressing before watching to see if it makes a difference.White-Fusion wrote:
