Fraps is the best unless the game has a built in recorder like TF2 which MC doesn't, if you're lagging with fraps then there isn't a lot you can do, anything other than fraps is pretty bad for quality :(

I recommend Fraps! If you lag while recording, play around with the framerate and use Half-size function if necessary. It fixed some problems for me when I tell programs to use less cores sometimes, you could try that too :)

Well, Fraps IS the best, but if you can tolerate some lack in quality, you can try out WeGame < clicky

I tried WeGame.. I thought it was crap at least. You might find it different though. :)

But anyhow, as many have said previously, run fraps in half size, and set FPS to 25-30. If you are still lagging, there's not much you can do, really.. Except get a better computer. :)

Live recording your screen is rather demanding I'm afraid.
