How good does ShadowPlay recording look?
How much pressure does it put on a system?
We've recorded a quick vid with the Baboon so you know exactly what to expect
from this awesome new Nvidia tech! It's so easy to use just like the Elgato
Game Capture because it records in the background as you are playing. So you can

This card has metaphorically lit a fire under the GPU market.
The hot, hot, hot entry price of the R9 290X

optimize themselves against the new AMD tech.

Battlefield
4 is the genre-defining action blockbuster made from moments that
blur the line between game and glory. Fueled by the next-generation power and
fidelity of Frostbite 3, Battlefield 4 provides a visceral, dramatic experience
unlike any other.
Only in Battlefield can you demolish the buildings shielding your enemy. Only
in Battlefield will you lead an assault from the back of a gun boat. Battlefield
grants you the freedom to do more and be more while playing to your strengths
and carving your own path to victory.
In addition to its hallmark multiplayer, Battlefield 4 features an intense,
dramatic character-driven campaign that starts with the evacuation of American
VIPs from Shanghai and follows your squad's struggle to find its way home.
