Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works really well, the set up was fairly straight forward and easy. The only thing that I noticed was sometimes on start up of my switch, the resolution/HDR would be crazy bad and I'd have to restart my switch a couple times for it to go back to normal. Aside from that, its been pretty solid.

Elgato knows how to make capture cards, and this one is no exception. It's really as simple as plugging it in, installing the 4K Capture Utility software, and you're good to go. It's important to pay attention to the technical specifications, because the input format determines what capture/record format you can capture with. I had a difficult time getting it to capture at 4k30, though it should be able to do that. I also had difficulty getting it to capture sound. It can only handle stereo PCM, which is pretty standard, but on one computer I couldn't get sound from the 4k Capture utility, and was only able to get in OBS after messing with the device settings in OBS for a bit. On another Windows 11 computer, it worked fine without any fussing, so it may just be the specific setup/hardware on that computer (Asus). There is the option to capture analog audio though, particularly if you are using Headphones with PS5, so that might make sound capture a bit easier in some setups. But, despite the minor nuances, it really is just ready to go out of the box, and the image capture is virtually lag-free, and the images are fantastic. Using this for reviewing games, live streaming, or just recording footage won't leave you disappointed. It also didn't seem to demand a lot of my PC, so I would expect this to work well on a modern mid-range PC as well. The 4k utility also supports "flashback" built-in, meaning you can replay video instantly in the app, which is a nice feature. The app also allows what they're calling "Stream link", meaning you can record footage straight from the game using the 4k utility, but still use OBS for streaming with overlays and whatnot, so you still can have the virgin video footage if needed. So all-in-all, I'm very happy with this device, and it's really nice to have something that can be used with modern game consoles now.

The latest and greatest revision of the HD60 series external capture devices. Captures up to 1080p60 with HDR on Windows PCs, but no HDR capability for the Mac. Meanwhile, it allows for 4Kp60 passthrough, or higher frame rates at lower resolutions. And it has VRR passthrough as well. I purchased this to work with a Mac with Apple Silicon, as the older versions of the HD60 aren’t recognized on non-Intel devices. Keep in mind that Elgato provides no dedicated software for Apple Silicon Macs—you can use QuickTime Player to make a recording with the capture card as an input device. Out of the box, QT records 1080p in ProRes format, which quickly eats away at disk space. You may want to find different software to make recordings.

Works like it should. Easy to setup. Limited to 1080p 60hz.

Currently have mine connected from gato to PC with dual connections to monitor and Xbox. Easy to set up with a quick download, easy to use. Works great with OBS.

Easy to set up and functions as intended. Make sure to download the elgado program even if you intend to use it on a program like OBS. I appreciate the headphone jack addition to this model.

Really solid capture card. Best for capturing things like Xbox or PS - but note audio capture can be goofy and require some troubleshooting. But it’s a great started capture card!

Easy to set up and hasn't failed me yet, so I'm really happy with this purchase

For what it is, it’s a really great way to record your console’s video output. 1440p@120hz worked on my Xbox Series X/S with the included HDMI cable and recorded onto my Windows laptop and MacBook, however the software is a bit better features wise on the Windows side. For the few wondering if you can play games on the video feed preview that appears on your computer, you can, but there is noticeable lag which turned me off from that. However, for its intended use case of simply recording and using a dedicated monitor, this device blows it out of the water!

At first getting everything setup was a bit of a hassle but it was worth it. Great video quality and great sound. My stream had never looked better. You can run lower resolution as well with same refresh rate for a cleaner look

Great price! East set up. Works great for streaming.

Ever since I got this from my stream set up, I have had absolutely no problems with it. It’s easy plug and play. I’ve never used this type of product before, but I’m glad I chose this one to be a better capture card.

It works great and was simple to use. Highly recommend

I bought this to be able to stream my PS5 gameplay on TikTok. I am very impressed with how easy to set up and use this was. The instructions provided and then a little bit of research online from other users made using this as simple as plugging it in and downloading very little software. The video and sound goes through great and no issues experienced in nearly a year of using it.

Very simple to install. Works better than my old HD60s. The only thing it is a bit on the pricey list.

The Elgato is hands-down one of the best audio interfaces I’ve used for streaming and content creation. From the moment I set it up, I noticed a huge upgrade in sound quality, clarity, and control. The build feels premium with a sleek, compact design that looks great on any desk setup.

Works great and very simple to use. I use it for streaming PS5 content. I can also use it to pass through the sound to the PC if I want to use the PS5 on the monitor instead of tv, because the monitor has no speakers or audio output.

super easy quick start guide. does exactly what it is supposed to.

I love this capture card. I replaced this with the Elgato S+. This capture card gave me practically no trouble and work great out the box. I used this card for my ps5 and Nintendo switch. Quality looks good

If you are looking to record or stream your game play especially on platforms like Tick Tock or YouTube gaming this will do great but there are workarounds that you can look up on YouTube that actually make it much more simple without a physical device
