Number?

Would an ssd help recored at higher fps with fraps?

If you need an ssd I would assume your pc would be loading ram into the hdd. I would say you would need more ram. It just might help though, just a thought.

Not exactly the pride and joy I was talking about.... ^_^

Without knowing fraps that well, I'd say no. I think that's more Dependant on RAM and CPU during the actual recording process.

Well, is your current drive a 7200, and is it >1TB? Also include the manufacturer. FRAPS does have to also create and store the video. Though, your drive should not pose any problems there...I always leave the door open to possibility. At what resolution are you recording? That also has a large bit to do with it.

Plus, on top of all that, are you running 64 bit?

EDIT: from my experience...FRAPS saves in .avi which (for the most part) is considerably large.

Ya its 7200, WD blue, 640GB, AKKS

And its 64bit w7

4800x900 res lol
I may put fraps to recored at half that res lol

 

[Grantofhell]

The resolution would explain a bit...

 

[sniperviper21]

But I can recored portal 2 well but other gamwes not, gues its game dependent...
Ill post my vid of portal vid later

Of course it depends on the game. I was told your system must exceed the system requirements if you want to record a game smoothly. Unless you don't mind lowering your graphics.

What I do is have 3 hdd in my system. One is my OS, the second is where I installed my games, and the third is where FRAPS save the movie file into. I would say I got a few fps more, depending on the game/what is happening.

 

[sniperviper21]

This is true.
Maybe i need an upgrade to AM3/DDR3/Mobo and Crossfire another 5870 lol.
