A metal is a chemical element typically in solid form, such as tin, copper, or iron, or an alloy made from a combination of these elements, while a medal is a flat piece of metal formed into a certain shape and bearing a specific image or inscription, typically given as an award for some achievement.

But none of this is strictly relevant to the metal/medal/mettle case. It’s true that for most Americans, these words are homophones. Like flapping, this is an aspect of the more general lenition of non-onset consonants in American English; but it’s not flapping.

There is only ONE way to record gaming without losing any FPS, and that is to use a secondary machine for the recording. Even then, you are still likely to lose SOME performance, because there HAS to be some overhead in providing the data to the other machine.

Bandicam

OBS will give you less file-size and probably more flexibility, while Bandicam will have less impact on your performance and should also give you higher quality recordings (unless you fine-tune OBS to exactly what you need – and not “out of the box”).

Bandicam is not considered a virus. It’s popular software.

In this case XSplit will use MUCH lower CPU than FMLE but still produce significantly better results than what is possible with FMLE.

Streamlabs OBS is ultimately an advancement of OBS with increased functionality. Streamlabs OBS is essentially the same OBS code revamped with a better user experience. This software is also free and offers an even easier installation process than OBS.

OBS

When you have set the game video settings to the lowest, this will decrease the quality of game graphics. Even so, your computer will perform better because this step reduces the load from the CPU and GPU. After setting the OBS Audio and ensuring its sampling rate is at the lowest, that will save you some bits.
