NVIDIA is making it easier than ever to relive and share your most awesome gaming moments. Although the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti was the headliner for NVIDIA’s appearance at GDC 2017 last night, ShadowPlay Highlights stands to also make a big impression on gamers.

ShadowPlay Highlights is a new feature incorporated within the GeForce Experience that automatically captures your most ruthless killing sprees or that fantastic headshot that you pulled off as the time expired on the game clock. According to NVIDIA, these moments are identified automatically and saved for posterity’s sake.
