And if you give me a bang-for-your-buck budget CPU, what settings would you suggest I use for optimal quality of the videos? I intend to play games like Dying Light and Overwatch, or pretty much any other fast-paced game in general. Thank you.
 
If you only want recording, get any CPU that is capable to play your game and get an Nvidia graphics card capable of nvenc. Choose simple output mode. Use "Hardware (nvenc)" as encoder with "Indistinguishable Quality" as quality. You will not be able to distinguish recordings from the original while having almost no CPU impact. In case of problems, limit the fps of the game to 60 with vsync on, and most games have in-game fps limiters.
