NVIDIA did a remarkably great job by making ShadowPlay available to every GeForce user and that too for free, but, here comes the sad part.

Kudos! Yes, you can record up to last 20 min of your gameplay that you’ve missed. In short and in simplest terms, they used the part of the GPU which was vestigial while gaming and assigned the job of recording to that part. They used the built-in H.264 encoder on the GPU die to take care of the recording stuff and prevented the gaming sectors of the GPU to get burdened by the recording overheads. They included ShadowPlay in the GeForce Experience bundle which was available after updating the drivers and GFE suite. The GoodĪfter a long time of using in-game video capturing software like fraps, hypercam and bandicam which did their work fine apart from slashing down a substantial amount of frame rate one gets while recording, NVIDIA, revolutionized the way it’s meant to be recorded. But, there’s a catch, most of these apps eat up a major portion of your frame rate and sometimes even reduce the quality of the recorded video (on top of that, they save files with idiotically large file size) making it a pain to use them on the low end to lower-mid end PC gaming systems. Have you ever missed the opportunity to show your friends some awesome stunt that you pulled in MotoX GP or some epic head-shot in Battlefield 4? Why not use some screen recording application to record your Gaming skills and cherish them later on or even broadcast it to the world? One of the most common and popular software for this task is FRAPS, followed by Bandicam and other professional and sophisticated screen recorders which get their job done. This guide is for older versions of NVIDIA GeForce Experience prior to version 3.0 for a newer version guide, check this updated post on HOW TO ENABLE NVIDIA SHADOWPLAY ON UNSUPPORTED SYSTEMS.
