    Shadowplay is a part of the GeForce experience... that stupid program will shut off my laptop’s graphics card every time I alt tab, ruining my frame rate when I tab back in due to not reallocating the lost voltage properly.

    I had to uninstall GeForce experience, and I do not believe that bug has been fixed yet. I’ve been streaming and recording using OBS, which is a better program in every way.

    Yeah its unbelievably difficult to go into settings in GeForce experience and slide that bar to the left and disable shadowplay. Not sure how anyone can handle it, took me a full team of guys to get done.

    he is probably saying that geforce experience is creating the problems, not shadowplay.
    don't buy nvidia for shadowplay, Im serious.

    pardon me for being "that guy", but you don't buy nvidia for shadowplay. It comes as part of the GPU you buy from Nvidia. If you are buying a several hundred dollar GPU just for shadowplay, you should check out Fraps.

    I remember countless friends buying a 970 over 390 because they wanted to be able to record their games. And point of shadowplay is the ability to record the past, You don't use it just for the normal recording feature.

    For normal recordings and streams OBS is king, part of the reason is that using CPU rendering is A LOT more effective than GPU. maybe not on the performance level but for quality it is.

    A quick update, I absolutely destroyed a few people with 2h ult in duels today.

    Also hit a magsorc for %70 of his hp with it. I guess it isn't so bad when you have like 5k weapon damage.

    You must have torn his shields off first. Good one.

    I was actually gonna post the clip here but shadowplay decided that it hates me so All I have is a clip of me dueling a stamplar instead :/

    PS: I really need a shadowplay alternative, it sucks, don't buy nvidia for shadowplay, Im serious.

    must be a just you thing, I have never had issues with shadow play. Streaming, highlights, last 15 minutes of gameplay, all gameplay, never had an issue :)

    In general I have tons of broken recordings caused by shadowplay randomly deciding to screw up, and OBS is just plain better at streaming. Maybe you're not using it enough to notice it.

    Lately all my friends are having same kind of issues with it.

    Shadowplay is amazing. I use it almost daily and have no problems with it.

    Not to mention that nobody should buy nvidia for shadowplay but for the fact that nvidia is the superior video card to all the other cheap variants.

    I do have the occasional problem where Shadowplay simply doesn't start when I launch the game. But I usually notice the little symbol is missing and restart.

    I get that too sometimes, and I restart as well. Really no reason to sweat over it tbf.

    Shadowplay is not a program, it is a feature.

    It is a known bug that GeForce experience causes graphics card issues in gaming laptops.
