For many gamers, the go-to application for performance benchmarking, screenshot capturing and also video recording has always been FRAPS. But if there’s one major thing FRAPS is lacking, it’s competition, something that might end with PlayClaw. This program offers many of FRAPS’ features, along with a couple of unique ones as well.
Original review here: PlayClaw – Has FRAPS’ Killer Arrived?
Fraps and PlayClaw are the most powerful game video recorders and I want to know, which one is the best. In previous game video recorders test drive I’ve tested several recorders and generally Fraps was on the first place and PlayClaw on second. This test was made on old hardware (Intel Core2Duo, GeForce 8800GT) and with old versions.
Now Fraps is updated to 3.0.3 and PlayClaw to 1.7 build 699 with new features and bug fixes. And I can test them on new Intel Core i5 and ATI Radeon 5750.
