What do you swear by for recording software?

I was wondering what the masses thought about recording software, and what they think is the best one to use out of the bunches that there are out there. I personally use bandicam, because it works and seems to be one of the best from my opinion. So, what do you swear by?!

Personally I use Action! by Mirillis. This is good for PC recording, and even allows for streaming ( though I haven't used that feature yet ). High quality recording too!

Action is very good but it hogs a lot of RAM and has to use at least 75% of ram to record in 720p or higher.
Action Is the Only One I Use Its the Best HD 60FPS Screen Recording Software

Action can have 1080p so it's very good but sadly it uses a lot of RAM and at least 75% of most CPU's so it's hard on my syste .

It Uses About 12% Of My CPU
And About 2GB Of My RAM
2GB of ram I still a lot to use. It's a system resource hogger but if you have good enough of a setup it won't hurt you much but for us people that can afford expensive setups it sucks a little :)[DOUBLEPOST=1446528589][/DOUBLEPOST]
OBS forever! :) It's very customizable, records GREAT, and lightweight. Oh, and FREE!
Agreed but it's settings are a little advances so first time users would have a little trouble but I used it before and I liked it :)

Xsplit is a data hog too but bandicam works well for me, I can encode in 1080p on my crappy laptop so it works very well :)[DOUBLEPOST=1446611505][/DOUBLEPOST]

OBS is EXTREMELY lightweight. I have way better frames with OBS over other programs.

All my videos are shot with Bandicam, I haven't tried any others, because Bandicam was one of the highest rated when I looked. But I always have at least 60 FPS and I record in 1080p. I guess I'm a little biased :b
