whats needed to "Clip games" using nvidia?

[Dan]

system is a
ryzen 5600x
16gb ram
rtx 3080
1tb OS SSD
512 Gaming SSD
3440x1440@144hz

I want to buy a HDD where I can offload clips from COD + other games. will a traditional 3-4tb 7200 rpm drive work just fine. assuming clips can get large fast.

platter drives struggle to keep up if you are doing bitrates above around 100,000kbps.

if you stay under that for bitrate, you should be fine.

Nvidia's shadow play has a clipping/highlights feature built in. However, the quality isnt as good as recording In OBS using the StreamFX plugin.

StreamFX also supports H.265 recording. (although it can be spotty).
