trying to record my game

So I have tried fraps and I don't know if I just have settings wrong or what, but it mega lags me up to the point where I can't play.

Could someone help me out so I can record my ingame performance and still be able to freaking play

Thanks

in fraps setting you can control how many fps it records at. So if you want 60 fps gameplay fraps needs to be set to record at 60 fps. However, the act of recording in realtime taking 60 uncompressed screenshots a second of your screen is pretty intensive and lowers you fps. I got a choppy 45-60 fps with a radeon 4830 that i normally get 200 fps with thats just the way fraps is. That is at 1680 x 1050 resolution though. If you play renegadfe at 800 x 600 with graphics settings at lowest and fraps set to 60 fps i'd image you could record and it be playable
