As for recording software, i only use bandicam despite the free version having a 10 minute record limit. I have tried fraps and found it a nuisance to even understand. My pc is capable of handling several games at once like world of warcraft, starcraft, skyrim, lotro online, runescape, smite, strife, swtor, age of empires 2 and the conquerors expansion if i keep the graphics to a minimum along with assistance from some game booster programs where i can still play but said graphics are still decent. This may not seem like a lot, however not everyone has the money to be able to upgrade their pc myself being an example. So "this being an age where people will have decent pc's" is not entirely true. Also, just because you have a decent following on youtube doesn't mean you should be promoted to a council member. And why should you be the one to tell people what kind of quality is acceptable? Note the sentence about decent pc's. If you can't seem to open your mind to the bigger picture, then maybe you should take the time to try. I like how you just openly insult me for not having a clue, especially since I've been running a YouTube channel for 5 years and have had many builds. My computer is built specifically for recording, I'm not suggesting everyone blindly copies my build, but I think it's clear you don't really know what you are talking about.

Just because your computer might have the ability to play a game at a stable frame rate does not instantly equate that you can record these games at the same time. Recording adds a lot of stress to games, which is why people report frame rate dropping during it, because they're recording the game onto the same drive as the game is installed on.

The few people who contributed before had not-so-great computers, but they were able to record Morrowind and Oblivion at a stable frame rate with no issues. Maybe you should not attack people when they've got a better idea of how YouTube quality works. :)
