Your computer specs are barely better than mine, and I can't play 2005 games good. LOL

It sucks beyond belief. I would strongly discourage dishing out $40 for a piece of crap. Dxtory or Bandicam is light years ahead of fraps.

Anyways, I doubt your computer will be able to run either Battlefield 3 or Battlefield 4 well. If you could post your graphics card that would be great.

What's better about Dxtory and Bandicam? I'm using fraps now, and it lags a lot. I'll happily switch to something else if those can fix or lessen that problem.

idk about bandicam but dxtory is just better for non-gaming lower end computers/laptops.

Get BFBC2 better then BF3 imo

I don't really know for sure. It's quite obvious from benchmarks that they are better. And quality wise they are just about the same. But I don't really know why Dxtory and Bandicam are better from a technical standpoint. I have a vague idea. But I will probably just make myself look like an idiot if I say it and I am probably wrong, better not to start rumors.

It's really the graphics card that matters most. You can game okay on 2 GB, it's definitely not ideal and for something like Crysis or Battlefield you definitely want atleast 4. But you could play something like LoL, WoW or Dota quite easily. His CPU is dual core.

I don't know his graphics card, so I can't really make an accurate prediction of how well he can run BF3. But the minimum system requirements of BF3 are a Athlon X2 2.7 GHz/Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz, so I doubt his CPU could handle the strain.

He has the minimum amount of RAM, and since his graphics card supports Dx11 I would ASSUME it can handle Bf3, but I really would need to know his graphics card.

Anyways I would advise the OP to go check out System Requirements Lab.

So many errors.

1. OBS is a livestreamer, yes it can record but I would not reccomend it.

2. The best game recorder in my opinion and experience (I have tried basically EVERYTHING) is DXtory.

3. No, your PC won't run BF3 or 4. You don't have a graphics card listed, the built in graphics are based off of your processor, which is slow already, and you only have 2GB of RAM (minimum for gaming should be 4).

4. Since your PC can't run either, save up money to build a PC that can.
If you save up around $600 you can get an entire setup (NOTE: SETUP) including monitor, mouse, KB, the PC itself and BF3 (BF4 even, possibly We don't know what will be able to run it and what wont. Hopefully, it is optimised enough to still meet the 6670 and let it play on medium, although again by that time cards will probably have dropped in price and you could probably get a 7 series in the same price range that will do relatively as well).

5. We don't know how good or bad BF4 is going to be. Judging a game in a franchise such as Battlefield off of 17 minutes of singleplayer gameplay (both good and bad reviews, i'm looking at you) is a stupid idea, and its like driving a Ferrari at 25MPH schoolzone only, and basing your Ferrari experience off of that. So we cannot say which game to get, but we CAN say, based on what you have told us, that your PC won't run either.

6. Lots of people still play old games, but it also depends on the shock and wow value. Playing Crysis (1) now and saying "Oh look I can max it" isn't that impressive (although, its still more demanding then the other games, which makes me laugh).

7. DXtory is not just better for the lower end. For the lower end I would recommend Playclaw of all of them, because in the low end (<35FPS) it has the lowest frame loss (in my experience) compared to the other options available (such as DXtory, Bandicam, Fraps, Camtasia, OBS, ect), however, if you're getting anything above that I would recommend sticking with DXtory.

8. BF3 vs BC2 vs BF4 vs w/e is opinion.

9. Dual core has nothing to do with it. I have a dual core and I max BF3 at 70FPS. At this current stage in time games don't benefit drastically (NOTE: Drastically!) and you can crank more performance (way more) by spending more money on the GPU then the CPU. But, there hits a point where the CPU simply cannot keep up with the requests of the GPU and that is a bottleneck (its always existent depending on your setup, somewhere in your build there is a bottleneck, the job is to minimize that) and if it is serious enough, it won't even let you boot the game let alone run it and record.

10. Recording requires serious harddrive space and serious CPU firepower. Some of my DXtory recordings (uncompressed, which is what you should be recording if you want any kind of quality) can be up to 50GB a minute. A minute. They also strain the CPU (regardless of compression, which just makes it worse) and sometimes, if its slow enough, the GPU. Since your PC probably doesn't have a GPU and you're running off of integrated graphics (Are you plugging your monitor cable into a place that has USB ports and sound ports around it in the same plate? Or is it underneath or above that a little with its own separate slot?) you're going to have a tough time.

11. System requirements lab lies so hard.

But what are the advantages?

[siLVeR]

I got the info I needed,

Fraps sucks and I got DXtory.

and I can't run BF3/Bf4 then I'll just get Ace of Spades 1.0.

any admin or mod please lock or close this thread.

I would honestly recommend not doing that either.
Save up your money. You're 12. I know it may seem like that you'll never get a chance to do anything else over the summer or whatever, but saving early saves you from problems later on.

My dad/big bro will buy me.

Sorry to bump but you won't be able to run ace of spades 1.0 either... i recommend cod4, very fun and still has over 3,000 servers(more than most games)

[Venator]

Well almost noone can run AoS 1.0 cause its a pile of shit.

I challenge you all to a ping duel in Crisis 3 on max settings.
