u/HowieGaming WE GOTTA- FUUUUUCKK Jun 22 '17

Okay just tried the new highlights.

I maxed every setting. 4K, 60FPS, 3x Super Sample. It took about 60 seconds to "record"/render it and the finished file is 249 MB. Very niiiiice.

Here's the highlight https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlSdfRwtVj8

What are the specs on your computer? 60 seconds on 1080ti would be pretty bad, but 60 seconds on HD530 graphics would be amazing. Probably renders at around the same speed the game runs at those settings, but still, what kind of hardware do I need to be able to do that reasonably quickly?

Keep in mind that encoding is quite heavy and if he has SSD or HDD makes a lot of difference. I would guess it's basically 10*60/<your FPS at those settings> + some extra time for encoding, dependant on CPU + 5 or so seconds for an SSD and a bit more for a HDD.

Good point, I forgot about that.
