Alright so here's the story:
My friend told me about MSI afterburner and he says that I should stop using Fraps to record minecraft. Which I agree because it takes WAY too much space when recording. So I thought sure. After a bunch of dials being switched and files paths changed in profiles, I got it recording. The only problem is that when I record my framerate goes from 120 all the way down to 45. Which may seem okay, but when I have the availability to play on 60 fps, I want to play on it. Even when I used fraps I would get somewhere around 80. Are there some setting that I should take note of or what?
