Here is a list of similar alternatives to Fraps. I'd suggest browsing through the reviews to find the program best suited for your needs.

Try out xsplit. It also lets you stream. Right now I think it might still be in beta (free) but it will cost in the future and it might be subscription type or something. U can get a 2 year sub for 40 bucks with a beta account.

Bandicam is really good. It has similar capabilities and should be faster than FRAPS. Free version adds watermark, but allows up to 10 minutes of recording.
|
|
Fraps is actually the best game recorder at the moment.
|
|
Fraps is the best one right now I think.
|
|
Honestly i would say Fraps is probably the best i've used, but i've heard Bandicam is good too.
|
|
i actually really like hypercam, its small and simple and it works amazing, i see nothing wrong with it, and its free as well
|
|
I use this movie grab but they may only make it for Mac users, not sure. What type of computer do you have?
|
|
Camstudio is a great, free program for doing exactly what you want. It might take a bit to get the right recording settings, but by far the effort is worth it.
|
|
You might want to consider getting a capture card for recording High Quality HD video captures of your game. Of course, the downfall is that you will need to get yourself another computer, but I don't know your exact situation. I use the Blackmagic Intensity Pro for work and highly recommend it!

WeGame or dxtory, they are both great programs that don't require shitloads of memory for good quality videos. Good luck with your recordings.
|

I highly recommend Dxtory, it is much much better than fraps because of its flexibility, it records multiple audio tracks so its great for commentary, and you can choose what Video codec you can use(I recommend http://lags.leetcode.net/codec.html) if you plan on getting it. It doesn't take up as much resources for your computer as fraps does, so your game will be smoother while you record it, I record all my gameplay with Dxtory (check out my channel to see what the quality is on youtube, heres one of my vids using Dxtory: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ab-1qTtN2X0) hope this answer helps you in your search for a good video recording program.
Also the only main con for Dxtory is that it might not be super easy to use, when I first tried it I found it difficulty to use, but once I learned how to use it I fell in love with it and found it vastly superior to Fraps.

I have have Xfire but i didn't know I can record with it.
|
|
It all depends on your computer though. Fraps is actually very good. If your computer can't handle the recording of fraps and the game itself than you need to upgrade your machine. If fraps lags it than so will any other piece of software.
Protip: You can change the settings in Fraps to record at a lower quality or framerate so the game will run faster.
Hope I helped!

If you use Xfire it can do exactly what Fraps does in game.
