    Great product

    Setup was super easy. I had it running in minutes, no complicated software or drivers needed. Just plug in, and it works. The quality is insane. I’m capturing gameplay in full 4K at 60fps, and it looks buttery smooth. Zero lag while playing, and the recordings come out crystal clear. I also love that it can record straight to an SD card without a PC, which makes things super convenient when I’m streaming or recording

    Excellent.

    I recently bought the Elgato 4K X and it has completely upgraded my streaming setup. Setup was super easy – just plug and play. It works flawlessly with my PS5 and DJI camera. The video quality is stunning, smooth 4K60 with no lag at all. Audio sync is perfect too. If you’re looking to stream or record in high quality, this is the best capture card you can get. Highly recommended for creators, gamers, or anyone who wants a professional setup.

    Best Capture Card, but Check your USB ports

    This is a top of the line amazing capture card I use for my PS5. The 4k gameplay I record is clean along with the crisp sound. Its easy to set up by connecting 1 HDMI from the source (in my case it was the PS5) to Elgato Capture Card, 1 HDMI from Elgato Capture Card to TV, and the provided USB-C to USB-C cable from Capture Card to PC. Download the 4K capture Utility or OBS and youre good to go. I want to provide a small warning though. Double check to make sure your usb port is compatible with this capture card. My motherboard was my only usb-c port on my PC and it experienced audio problems. My motherboard might be corrected in future updates, but I had to separately purchase a USB-C to USB-A (not included) to connect to my USB on my case. If it doesnt plug and play easily it will be a headache and all cases are different as everyone uses different hardware. Again, just make sure your computer USB can transfer speeds of 10gbps and has a USB-C port. Other than this small detail, its a great purchase.
