Compatible titles currently include League of Legends, CS:GO, and Dota 2.

GameSense is also customizable, allowing users to toggle which types of game-specific moments the software auto clips, like knife kills in CS:GO. Screengrab via SteelSeriesĪlong with editing clips, users can take advantage of the GameSense autoclip feature in a few competitive games. Editing clips in-app gives players the option to add more personality to their clips before sharing them on various platforms. Users can edit the length of their clip with start and end slates or add GIFs and text for a dose of humor. SteelSeries’ Moments software functions much like a regular gameplay capture software with customizable hotkeys and shortcuts but adds a bit more to the mix with its editing tool.

For comparison, Nvidia’s ShadowPlay (Nvidia Share) allows its users to post directly to Facebook, YouTube, and Weibo. Moments allows direct upload to YouTube and Gfycat while supporting drag-and-drop posting to Discord, Facebook, Reddit, and Twitter. If you set resolution to “in-game”, it appears that you can still set the bitrate to 130mbps, but in reality Shadowplay will only record at a measly 85mbps.Users can post their big plays and epic fails to Discord, Reddit, Twitter, YouTube, Gfycat, and Facebook. If you set the resolution to 4K instead of your actual resolution, you will gain access to higher recording bitrates which is required to get good looking recordings from Shadowplay. Set bitrate to 130mbps (or whichever highest bitrate you can select).Set Resolution to 4K (even if you don’t have a 4K screen!!).The most important aspect is correctly settings up the video capture recording settings tab in the Nvidia GeForce Experience. You will need an Nvidia GPU that supports NVENC.

Further, I show you some how to avoid laggy or broken recordings in games that utilize loads of GPU resources such as COD Modern Warfare Warzone. In this blog post, I will show you a trick that allows you to get the best video quality while recording using Shadowplay.

No other game capture method (other than a capture card) is able to record gameplay at such a small performance penalty. Shadowplay (or the Nvidia GeForce experience) allows you to record gameplay seamlessly with minimal performance loss (about 1-5%) by utilizing the dedicated NVENC chip available on selected Nvidia graphics cards.
