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.

Battlefield is known for its great optimization, while Garry's Mod is so poorly optimized that the supercomputers at NASA will run it at the same FPS as a desktop, if not less. Lag is divided into client-side and server-side.

Client-side means that your hardware isn't powerful enough to render things quickly, causing frames per second FPS to drop. Server-side means that there is a notable latency between you and the server. So, when someone shouts "LAG", they mean the latency. These 2 types are easily swapped. More myths will be incoming soon You have successfully removed some lag from your gmod! Thanks for reading this guide.
