Ive been trying to find the best FRAPs program to do my recording. One that is decent on the CPU usage, and doesnt suffer from bad coding, isnt clunky, etc.

So far, the results of my search:

1.) WeGame Client = the best, I love it, but for some reason it doesnt record audio for me now, so im looking for an alternative until this is fixed. (yes my stereo mix does work btw)

2.) Xfire = good, but heavy CPU usage makes it lag at explosions and stuff. I cant run my game on Full Specs while doing 25FPS/ Full scale like I can with WeGame

3.) Fraps = God aweful piece of shit for Shoutcasts. My Core2 Duo gets CPU bottlenecked 15 minutes into the movie, and the FPS for the recording never recovers when the load is reduced, so it hovers around 5-10 FPS for the rest of the game. It rly makes it bad for Shoutcasts, trying to run background programs and record at the same time to get final product.

So my question is to you all, do you use something better? Just throw out some Fraps programs so i have an idea of what to try.
