Elgato's confusing naming made it difficult to figure out that this is a brand new product. The 4K60 MK2 is the previous model. This one doesn't include a low profile bracket and seems to have quality control issues. Passthrough doesn't work on mine and others have reporteded the same issue. I tried multiple HDMI cables. So I'm returning it for a defect. The Elgato 4K Capture Utility is clunky and it's strange that this "capture" program is how you change settings. They should improve the UI and add descriptions of what the different settings do. It's missing one feature that I was hoping to get, but isn't listed in any specs. It doesn't support 24 bit audio, only 16 bit audio. It DOES support both 48khz and 44.1khz audio but I only tried 48khz which is the standard for video. I couldn't get 4k and higher refresh rates to work with the included HDMI cable and an Alienware M16R2 laptop. Only 4k 60Hz showed up with the virtual monitor presented by this device with internal EDID settings. It may work if you plug in a higher Hz monitor to the output port, but passthrough didn't work for me so I couldn't try it.

Thank you for taking the time to write this up in such detail. The 4K Pro captures up to 4K60 with HDMI 2.1 passthrough, VRR, and HDR10 support, and the experience you're describing is not what we'd expect. We appreciate the candid feedback on the 4K Capture Utility as well — that's exactly the kind of input that helps us improve. Several of the issues you've outlined, particularly around passthrough, EDID behavior, and audio, are things our support team can investigate with your specific hardware in mind. Please reach out at help.elgato.com before returning — there's a good chance we can work through this with you.

Excellent PCIE Capture card, my personal recommendation for anyone in the market. Fluid recording, 8k passthrough, and an easy and intuitive setup experience.

I just upgraded to the Elgato 4K Pro, and wow — this thing is a game changer. The picture quality is absolutely beautiful, everything looks crystal clear and super smooth. I’ve been using it with my PS5, and the difference is night and day. No lag, no weird stuttering — just pure, clean gameplay exactly how it should look. Setup was super simple too. I just plugged it in, connected the HDMI cables, and it worked right away. No complicated setup or tech headaches. Within minutes I was recording and streaming in 4K like a pro. What I really love is how smooth and consistent it is. Even during long gaming sessions, it never lags or overheats. The colors look amazing — bright, detailed, and real — and it makes every stream or video feel high-quality without me having to mess with settings. If you want your gameplay to actually look as good as it feels when you’re playing, this is the one to get. It’s fast, easy to use, and makes your setup feel instantly more professional. Elgato really nailed it with this — it’s 100% worth the upgrade.

If you're capturing video from A Switch 2, PS5, Xbox, or a 2nd pc, this capture card is built for that. I enjoy the lag free capturing that does not sacrifice video quality. I also enjoy the lag free passthrough it offers, still allowing me to play on without any mishaps.

I got the Elgato 4K Pro 8K60 for my setup, and it’s been great. It was easy to install and started working right away with my PC. I mostly use it for streaming on Twitch, sharing gameplay on Discord, and uploading videos to YouTube. The quality is super clear, and everything runs smooth with no lag or dropped frames. It’s also been really helpful for recording B-roll footage from games. The passthrough works perfectly, so I can play at full quality while recording at the same time. Everything just works the way it should, which makes my life a lot easier. If you're making content and want something reliable, this is a great choice.

This works great! It was a simple instalation and download for the apps. Runs my camera great with only one problem... I need a 4k monitor now to see how good it is myself. Would recommend.

Practically plug and play. Love that we don't have to use a USB for power but the passthrough doesn't work when the PC is off so for our setup we still need to make compromises but hoping this is a reliable card for streaming.

Everything is good except for the lack of 3.5mm audio jack like the other capture cards.. if you have a console your better off going with one of Elgato’s other options..

This capture card has a learning curve. I couldn't figure it out at first. Luckily there are a lot of resources on the internet about how to get it working. It took a few days. Figure it out, you'll be glad you did. When people come to my stream they comment about how smooth the gameplay is. I don't have the monitor required to use this card at it's full potential. I do know that this card could handle whatever I could throw at it. Totally worth it if your computer can handle it, you can get past the learning curve.

If you want to be able to sit at your PC and use your monitor and PC speakers to play your console games, this is by far the easiest way. It also lets you record and/or share the gameplay with friends during calls in Discord, etc.

I love the 4K pro! It works as advertised, and if you stream or do any sort of online content creation involving your consoles, I highly recommend getting it. Pair it with an HDMI splitter for multiconsole use.
