This game is very very demanding on PC's... Any advice for recording it? Desktop PC is a quad core (which has no problems running it at 60 with VSYNC on), so upgrading is something I do not want to do anytime soon . Tempted to get my tripod and camcorder set up haha n/a

The key may be in using your camcorder...see if there's a direct-in that can go from your PC to the camera. Good luck on that, hagar. .
