I'm trying to record at 1440p with a Sapphire R9 290x and an i7-5820k.
x264, CRF: 15 at the Superfast preset (and of course, all the slower presets) cause my CPU usage to spike or plateau at a peak. Here's an image playing Minecraft for a few moments: http://imgur.com/a/IjL3P
Overwatch is a bit more CPU intensive and just causes my CPU usage to sit at 100% for extended periods of time, making the recording poor and the game unplayable. If i record at 1080p, the issues do not occur at the same settings (as you might guess).
I feel that my GPU and CPU should be powerful enough to record 1440p60fps. Am I mistaken? Could I change some other settings to help?
