At least on NVIDIA. ## Note about optimal performance on NVIDIA NVIDIA driver has a "feature" (read: bug) where it will downclock memory transfer rate when a program uses cuda (or nvenc, which uses cuda), such as GPU Screen Recorder. See https://git.dec05eba.com/gpu-screen-recorder/about/ for more information and how to overcome this. +## Note about optimal performance on AMD/Intel +Performance is the same when recording a single window or the monitor, however in some cases, such as when gpu usage is 100%, the video capture rate might be slower than the games fps when recording a single window instead of a monitor. Recording the monitor instead is recommended in such cases. ## Installation This program depends on [gpu-screen-recorder](https://git.dec05eba.com/gpu-screen-recorder/) which needs to be installed first.\ |
