I use Fraps and find that it does what I need it to very well.

Just tested them both on an identical scene which is heavily loaded with scenery. They both knock about 10fps off. The only difference I can see between the two is that Bandicam has a pause button. Fraps might have one too that I'm unaware of. All-in-all, it's neither here nor there.

It's a hotkey, but you use it to start and stop filming.
