Game Capture

Captures a windows' content, most preferable as it performs best

There's a few alternatives sources for Linux, though none are as good as Game capture on Windows

• https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/obs-nvfbc-high-fps-git (read pinned comments)
• https://github.com/nowrep/obs-vkcapture (see #usage at the bottom of the page)

Also see gpu-screen-recorder if you just want to record games in high FPS

Window Capture

This can also capture the title bar, if game capture is not available / broken, use it instead

Display Capture

Capture what a monitor shows, least performant.
