  • This capture card is a absolute BEAST
Style: 4K S
The media could not be loaded. ⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars – The Elgato 4K S is an ABSOLUTE BEAST for Streaming and Recording 🔥🎮 If you’re serious about content creation or streaming, the Elgato 4K S is the real deal. This thing captures buttery smooth 4K footage with zero lag, zero hassle, and the quality is just insane. My gameplay looks so clean it almost doesn’t feel real — crisp colors, sharp movement, and no dropped frames at all. Setup took literally minutes. Plug it in, install the software, and BOOM — perfect capture instantly. Works flawlessly with my PC and my console, and it handles fast-paced games (Warzone, Fortnite, Apex, whatever) like a champ. What surprised me most is how reliable it is — no overheating, no glitching, no weird issues. Just pure, stable, high-quality recording every single time. If you’re trying to level up your YouTube, TikTok, or Twitch content, this is one of the best upgrades you can make. Elgato knocked it out of the park with this one. Worth every penny. ... show more

  • Great Entry to 4K Capture, but Mind the HDMI 2.0 Limits
Style: 4K S
The Elgato 4K S is an excellent, easy-to-use capture card, especially if you're upgrading from a 1080p card or want a simple external setup. Pros (The Good Stuff): Ease of Use: Truly plug-and-play. I was recording within minutes with their 4K Capture Utility software. Portability: The USB-C power and small form factor make it perfect for a compact desk setup or travel. Quality: The 4K60 footage is very clean and sharp, and the HDR support is a nice touch. Cons (What to Consider): Passthrough: While the passthrough is nearly lag-free, it uses HDMI 2.0. This means if you have a high-end 4K monitor capable of 120Hz or higher, you'll be limited to 4K60 when the card is connected, unless you drop the resolution to 1080p or 1440p to get higher refresh rates. It forces a trade-off. No Dedicated Power: Being bus-powered is usually a plus, but it does mean your PC/laptop needs sufficient USB power. Final Verdict: It's a solid, reliable, and convenient capture card that delivers great video quality for the price. However, users with top-of-the-line gaming monitors might find the HDMI 2.0 limitations a bit frustrating. If you mostly play at 4K60, this is a perfect 5-star choice. For high-refresh-rate console gamers, it's a very solid 3.5 to 4-star device because of that one limitation. ... show more

  • A 4K Ultra Wide Capture King 👑
Style: 4K X
A Hugh upgrade from the hd 60x and the right upgrade thanks to the ultra wide support now and 144hz capture on a 3440x1440 is a streamers dream. Fits the agenda for consoles such as the Xbox Series S/X as well as PS5. I own all systems and tested this on them and the results are good. Elgato is like the power company and they have you by the balls and you have to go their route as not another company can provide or compete. Now before you yell at me and say avermedia then hear me out. I am not a paid reviewer and I am elgato to the end all because avermedia failed me with their software and input lag which is not good. This capture card 4k x is long needed and should have been what they tried to do with the HD60X. I stream daily with this thing and I never turn it off and it's going strong. If you enjoy high quality and fast lag free gameplay then come on and join me and the other happy customers as you won't regret it ... show more

  • My current capture card of choice
Style: 4K X
This is the capture device I initially meant to buy. So far it works great and connects to my PS5 Pro, Series X and Switch 2 flawlessly, it’s also Mac compatible as I use this on a MacBook Pro M3 Pro.

  • Elgato 4KS
Style: 4K S
The Elgato 4K S runs well and compatible to many consoles and Pc builds. The capture card will read Switch 2 devices. It may work on 4K resolution and on 120hz (120fps) refresh rate on the switch 2. The refresh rate on the switch 2 settings may need to be off if your screen freezes or goes black. Many monitors may not be compatible, but there is software resolution settings to adjust to preferences. Not all monitors can handle 120hz. A console and monitor of similar refresh rate is a simple plug and play. The connectivity is simple and software is on the company’s website. It’ll run in 4K and has a steady run time. ... show more

  • Great product. You pay what it's worth
Style: 4K X
You get what you pay for here. High quality and focused capture. I streamed Twitch and it was sooo clear and focused. Simple plug and play set up. No need for extra software.. well except OBS if you use that. Zero lag or latency for me anyway.

  • The best to begin to stream.
Style: 4K S
It is a very good product. Their cables are braided and has USB-C so I can connect it directly with my Mac mini and iPad. I’m using it with a Nintendo Switch and it works very well with OBS and TikTok Live Studio.

  • Works great , but gotta disable HDCP first
Style: 4K X
Works really well. Make sure to disable HDCP under HDMI settings on PlayStation before you connect it otherwise youll just get a black screen!!! If you do this first then it works like a dream.
