Dxtory vs Fraps vs Xfire HD Recording Software Comparison
Dxtory:
~Now i know that in the video it looks like "Dxtory" laggs but thats not true - i set the wrong write speed so it looks all choppy, once i've set the write speed - it runs very smoothly. Also "Dxtory" uses less cpu,gpu & ram than both "Fraps" & "Xfire" which is great for lower end PCs!! "Dxtory" also has way more option than "Fraps" & "Xfire" - now the file size is a bit bigger than "Fraps's" but that is OK.
Fraps
~As you all already know "Fraps" is the worlds most popular ingame software recording software, but in many cases people have various problems with it such as - FPS drops, improper colors etc... Also its big disadvantage is that it splits ONE file into 10 files after you're done recording ("Dxtory" or "Xfire" dont do that).
Now "Fraps" has a normal file size and really realistic colors & brightnes, but it uses a lot of cpu, gpu & ram!!!
Xfire:
~Software made by Xfire's messengers team in order to give their users an option to record their gameplay and post it on their website, but it can also be uploaded to other sites (youtube). Now the thing with "Xfire" is that you dont have many options to choose from - 30fps is set automatically (not good). It uses cpu. gpu & ram almost as much as "Fraps" but has much less file size in the end.
Now after you've read all this i hope you have a preview of all the cons & pros for each of these software applications :)
