Having an issue with fraps.

Using 11.10 preview 2 driver.

every time I run fraps the frame rate drops from 60 to 19-20 and the game becomes nearly unresponsive and laggy.

I tried running fraps in half-screen mode and the same thing happens. 19-20 fps from 60.

So I figured it was an obvious vsync issue. So I turned vsync off in my graphics card options but the game appears to still only render at 58-60 fps.

I'm not sure if the vsync is on or off.

Anyone else getting this problem with fraps?

Performance of a game while running fraps all comes down to how much ass you have behind your rig.

Do you mean just having the framerate overlay on causes framerate drops, or are you experiencing problems during recording?

I use a i7-2600k and a 5970

I record battlefield 3 beta with 1-2 frame loss.

This problem ain't on my end. Fraps just don't work with this game.
