My son had to call the manufacturer directly and they gave him all of the specifications needed from your laptop or PC to run Elgato effectively ! They were extremely patient and helpful :-)
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The GhZ does not matter at this point in time. You will be fine.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have a 2.7ghz on a MacBook Pro. It worked smoothly with a Wii u. But then got the gato 60hd 'S' and it gave me trouble. It doesn't run as smooth so I had to drop the frame rate to get it to work. Check out my you tube video. Search ' 4erazmo ' and watch my Mario maker video as an example. Hopes this helps.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it will work. Just make sure you have enough memory to support the real time capture and streaming it can do.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, anything less than an intel i7, i wouldn't recommend it. The i5 1.6ghz is so low power it may/may not work correct. You can certainly try it and return the product if it doesn't work as you want. Keep in mind, only capture at 720p and 30fps. anything higher is going to tax your computer too much. I used the HD60 on my Macbook Pro with an i7 2.2ghz, but was again only able to capture 720p @ 30fps....
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It depends on what icore you got and if you really want a smooth recording, your processor must have a higher mb like i5 core 3xxxmb or higher same with the i7 core.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, 2Ghz or higher required.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.no. its too slow. Quad Core i7 on a MacBook Pro like mine (i7-2675QM) has no issues. that 1.5ghz i5 is too slow and underpowered.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Higher, if you want 1080p60FPS you NEED at least a 2.5 quadcore
