I have a 5820k and 1080 in my backup PC. I notice you said intel 6th gen. I wasn't sure if this had to do with the encoding or differences in drivers or more a performance cut off recommendation? Would my HEDT intel chip work?

Very interesting to hear how it stacks up for some older consoles. Cheers for the testing on that.

Hi can you help ? I have a Gaming PC and specs are : Core i9 9900k, GTX 2080 ti EXTREME, 32 GB RAM but still it's not enough to record 4k 60 fps gaming on OBS Classic, it takes too much space and it lags so if i use this capture card will it help ?

I'll answer that like the only professional, as usual with these garbage clickbait channels, as it's something I do with the HD60 Pro. It only does 1080 so I'm looking to upgrade. Unfortunately I ended up here. If you plug the GPU HDMI out in to it you'll get an infinitely better capture quality than OBS. I've tried every combination in OBS and the quality is always garbage. I smashed the HD60 up to 60mbps (max) writing to an M3 and the quality was perfect. I even watched it back on my 4k and it was clearer than 75mbps 4k capture in OBS. The Elgato PCI line is worth every penny. In terms of performance, there's almost no loss. When capturing the Elgato app uses about 350mb RAM. It's nothing. Barely any CPU power. If you turn off live playback and disable preview it will use 1% to 3% GPU resources. Actual GPU, it will use no GPU RAM. That's me running on an old, near bottom end, GTX 1060. So I can play a game on the same machine I'm capturing on and have near 0% system resource impact, unlike with OBS which uses a ton of resouces and the video still comes out garbage...

Massive amount of great info here! Thanks for making this thorough review! 😊

Just got to the point where I'm capable of doing a dual pc set up for streaming but didn't want to sacrifice my high refresh rate for gaming, glad I found your video with the solutions!

So, something that “May” work in your situation. AMD has an application called AMD Radeon RAMdisk. It can reserve a maximum of 64GB of memory. Unless you’re recording insane amounts video, you maybe be able to use that as scratch content. I use it all the time when I’m spinning up a temporary VM and don’t feel like on my SSD’s

You can record 4K to an HDD as long as that HDD is purely for storage and isn't your OS drive. If anything, recording to RAID 0 HDDs is also a good idea for speed increases.

I absolutely LOVE this video, it is one of the reason why I ended up buying the 4K60 Pro Mark II! Thanks EposVox !

I just got the 4K60 Pro Mk.2 and was wondering on the Xbox do you change the colour depth/space? if so what are the settings you are using? I been posting comparison between mk1 and mk2 on elgato reddit. But for some reason my captures became darker but with slightly better colours.

Thank you so much for this detail. I just bought a PS5 slim and also want to upgrade my Elgato HD60P card. Great timing for both products.

Honestly outputting to two different programs is such an amazing feature, I was about to consider buying a second LGHD 2, but I think taking to jump to 144hz capture is gonna be a nice upgrade as well. Now I just have to fork up the money.

THANK YOU FOR THE SECRET TRICK. Literally the deciding factor for myself since I can stream and record at the same time in 2 different qualities. Something I hadn't even known was possible ! Thank you

I wouldn't have tried unless a Corsair rep responded saying it was possible on an Amazon review question. Sadly won't be able to utilize all of its features BUT was good to know as far as future proofing myself for when I do upgrade it. Thank you again for the help!

Nope, not even close. In 2008, most people already had monitors with higher-than-720p resolution. In 2021, 1080p is the dominant monitor resolution, and lower-than-1080p is more common than higher-than-1080p. In the steam hardware survey, which skews above the average, only about 2.5% of computers have 4K screens.

4k _is_ the upper limit though. 8k and above is just stupid.

How do you eliminate audio lag when using this? I have my Series X plugged into this, yet no matter what I find, the only "low lag" option is listening through obs monitoring. The audio extractors ive found wont allow 1080p120fps pass through either. HELP!

Wow! I've never found such a good UX of YT video! Super pro!

so just to be clear i can connect my cannon eos mkii to this? and run it through obs?

Just as a mention, Magewell capture cards have been doing multi-application access for some time. I'd spoken with Elgato a while back, asked if the feature was possible, and argued the case for its inclusion in a more consumer price-point product. Really awesome that they got it in and working though; as mentioned in the video, it's excellent for recording 'clean' gameplay-only footage for later editing. As I don't have a 4K60 v2 to test, are you able to access the device at different resolutions+framerates simultaneously, as with Magewell cards?

Epos, Why would you select "Color Range": Partial opposed to Full? Just Curious and thanks in advance :)

Oh wow, the "secret trick" is actually pretty appealing! Currently I use OBS recording at a 1440p canvas and downscale to 720p to a much lower bitrate using the old NVENC encoder. It's surprisingly not bad, but unfortunately I'll have to pass due to no component 240p support, which I'm not gonna get my hopes up of Elgato ever adding this due to it being analog.

Hey there! I just got this card, but for some reason gameplay recorded in 4K Capture Utility is shorter than it's recorded in OBS. Separate game and voice audio tracks are fine and can be synced to my stream/facecam recordings from OBS, but the video gets more out of sync the longer gameplay is. Tried it without the obs - the problem stays the same. After 1:19:27 of playing game I get the same length for separate audio files and 1:19:14 for the video file. And if you sync it in the beginning - it gets desynced randomly throughout the footage

Also I’m looking for a video from you or anyone telling people with modest pcs for streaming NOT gaming just obs and recording. Any idea where I can find one.

I cant get the HDR to work on my series x or ps5 with this capture card. anyone have any luck?

I am very frustrated with the new elgato hd60x. I get pixelated recordings and preview with iphone 14pro max. Im playing pubg. I tested passthrough and thats fine but obs and recording in 4k utility looks like 360p. Contacted elgato and tried a few settings over the phone but no luck yet. Been weeks aand still going back and forth. Could nvidia settings be the issue? Please help if you can. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Wait how does the secret trick actually work? is there a timestamp? I watched the entire video almost twice to see if I missed it :( OBS still does not show my capture device when I have the 4K Capture Utility software running, but once i close 4K Cap Utility then my OBS finally shows the Capture Device

Quick questions: I bought this for my streaming setup. What I am trying to do is stream 720p59 from an older Xbox One to my PC with limited lag. My processor is an AMD FX-8320E Eight Core and my Video Card is a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB GDDR5 Dual-Fan Video Card. I installed the capture card because I bought it before understanding how steep the system requirements were and it arrived and I decided to give it a try. So after about an hour of use, my processor temps are hovering in the low 60 degree Celsius range and my PC isn't radiating heat. Is it acceptable to use this card as long as I neve try to run it at its highest settings or is it still dangerous?

Thanks for the review!

Thanks for watching!

I did some testing with one of these cards on a single pc setup just out of interest. FYI @epxvox there is some benefit in a single pc. That is that when you use Game capture and tab out of a full screen game, the viewers see (depending on the game) either the game dropping down to low fps and looking terrible or some games when tabbing out show a frozen screen and viewers ask if the stream is frozen. Capture card shows same as Display capture, but Display capture can fail to work on some games, eg Division 2 where for some reason display capture gives me 40fps and game capture over 100fps in game. Anyway, here's my test results on a single pc, for curiosity... Stream testing results Game PUBG Resolution 1440p monitor Hz 165 Gsync enabled 1080p streaming - single pc =================== 145 fps Game capture 95-160 fps Display capture 140-145 fps Elgato 4k capture card 1440p streaming - single pc =================== 145 fps Game capture 60-70 fps Display capture 130 fps Elgato 4k capture card

i cant wait to have this capture card

Would this be a good choice to make a backup copy of a blu-ray movie? I know Makemkv is also an option.

Does the HDR come across cleaner on the stream as well, or just with the recording version? I have a dual PC setup but mainly stream and not record (using hd60 pro). Would it be worth upgrading to to the newer version? Thanks for any input :)

Which should I buy the Elgato 4k60 Pro Mk.2 or Avermedia Live Gamer 4K?

Grabbed one of these recently. It runs just fine on an i7-4770k and a GTX 1080. I'm able to use passthrough with OBS but the Elgato 4K Capture Utility has a noticeable lag. Disclaimer: I bought this for future proofing. I've not bothered with 4K so far - I imagine my weak processor may struggle with 4K.

Can't wait. Still saving for this.

Just got mine a week ago and having a few of problems like popping sounds when gameplay gets too loud, "no signal" showing up randomly after I stop recording making me unplug and re-plug to get it fix, and recordings sometimes show nothing. Sigh may just have to return this and try the avermedia 4k instead if I can't find a solution :(

I have a issue showing on the capture utility that 3440x1440p 100 is not supported althought it shows up in obs whats up with that?

I have a 1440p monitor that supports hdr10 runs fine using display port by itself connected from the graphics card to the monitor, But when I clone this capture card to the monitor hdr only works in windowed/ windowed full screen mode.. I cant get it to work in full screen mode, when selecting fullscreen mode my monitors screen goes black and says no signal, I can still se the picture in the 4k60 promk2 but its flickering... What's the deal with that?

Now the only thing is how do you set up sound for consoles if I want to use headphones

I'm wondering, using a HD60 Pro, would it be possible to now use the Elgato Game Capture HD Software for recording - specifically using the on-board encoding chip (and thus save CPU) - while simultaneously streaming in OBS, thanks to the Multi App Support? I understand that previously you needed to close the Elgato Game Capture HD Software in order to use OBS, and that the only option to record and stream at the same time was through Master Copy in Elgato's own software. Asking this as I'm currently doubting between buying the 4K60 Pro Mk.2 and HD60 Pro, and interested in the latter's on-board encoder purely from a CPU standpoint.

Other than Magic, this is just the same cards as the AVerMedia Live Gamer 4K - 4Kp60 HDR Capture Card? Also which stream and capture looks nicer?

How do you connect this to a lap[top with USB-C Thunderbolt 3 ? Any external case? or even for consoles?

Well done video! I have a question though: How does the cpu usage of Elgato's software compare to that of Avermedia's while capturing and recording 4k?

Is it possible to connect an DSLR Camera to the 4K60? And how hard would the workload be to connect an 4K 60 Pro and an HD60S to a Computer? My system has the following specifications: AMD Ryzen 7 3700x, Geforce RTX 3060 und 32 GB RAM - Any awnsers are appreciated.

very informative video thank you

I just upgraded from the HD60S to the 4k60 Pro MK2 and now I have a new problem with my dual PC setup. My video and audio start to desync after about an hour of streaming, this never happened before. I will see anywhere from 1 second of audio delay up to 3 seconds of audio delay, and it's driving me nuts. Deactivating the capture card and reactivating resets it but the audio drifts again after about an hour. My main monitor is cloned with the MK2 and I am using Voicemeeter Banana and VBAN to hook the two PCs together (except the gaming audio is sent directly to OBS via HDMI), I've changed everything to 48,000 sample rate, buffering enabled,/disabled,/auto-detect, applied the recommended 650 ms delay to the capture card, enable/disable timestamps and nothing works. Is there something else that I need to do to prevent this audio drift? Tried x264 and NVENC with the same issue. Going on 3 weeks and still haven't found a solution, even did fresh windows install just to be sure. Did I receive a bad capture card, any recommendations? The only difference from my past setup and the current one is the upgrade of the capture card.

Do you have problem with HDMI Color Range detection with MK.2? I connect with my PC and Elgato detect Limited color range when i change in my NVIDIA drivers setting on Full Range then I have blow color on Elgato. After a few changes EDID on Elgato from Internal to Display and vice versa one time or another Elgato at last change to Full Color Range. Strange. I would like elgato to give the manual settings in driver - switch manually Full or Limited Color Range. Have you had a problem with that? Sorry for my bad English.

Will this work with a Reg PS4? Because when I turn it on, either SLOBS gets the signal or the 4k app does. Whichever I decide to open first. Any idea on what I could be doing wrong?

You mention this card couldn't handle the 5x mode on OSSC. The Retrotink 5x wasn't out when this was reviewed. Have you gone back and tested this card at all with that scaler? Or would it be better to go with the newer HD60X as someone that streams from both old and new?

If you could pick one avermedia live gamer 4k or elgato 4k60 pro which would it be

Any Capture Card where you can play from the preview window?

So since I have a very nice monitor that uses a display port could I use an adapter and it still work?

What's the best price friendly capture card for consoles would you say?? I want to get into recording and streaming but dont wanna spend money and have it suck...

So I'm confused. Sorry I'm new to the master race. I have a dual 1440p monitor pc setup. I have the elgato hd60 pro and was previously using it for my channel happily recording in 1080p 60fps. Well with these new 2k monitors seem to stop me from using my current elgato to RECORD 2k content. Do I need this 4k capture card to capture my stuff in 2k now? Or can I use my current elgato to still capture 1080 video? Streaming doesn't seem to be an issue. I get to enjoy 2k gaming while my viewers (all 2 of you lol) see 1080p 60fps.

So i think the best way for pc gamers without older konsoles is the expensive way.So the magewell is the high end with the higest resolution and refreshrates. Thank you for the video ! 😁👌

Is this why I'm getting screen tearing on stream? Because I'm using an hd60pro and a 144hz monitor?

Have you made a video explaining what bitrates should be set at what resolutions?

One question, for the elgato hd60s usb capture card to capture game audio on the PS4 you need to buy the elgato chat mixer to capture game audio but with this internal capture card would i have to buy the chat mixer still?

Hey EposVox! Not sure if you're going to see this or not but did you ever figure out if these 4K60FPS work with UW monitors?

@EposVox I don't know if you can answer this, but I give it a try. The minimum specs for using this card is said to be i7 gen 6 or newer + gtx 10-series. My question is, I'm considering getting one but my stream-pc have a i7-5820k (x99) and a gtx1080. Will this even work? Since it's technically an older cpu than min.requirements but still a more powerful cpu than some of the 6th gen i7's ?? i will mirror my 1440p144 monitor but output 900p60 through OBS.

Should I purchase this or the hd60 ones?

Can you please explain to me how to setup the audio for capturing? You said that in general to keep the audio muted in the elgato 4k capture software. But how can you record the audio? If my headphones connected stright to PS5, the capture card will only record the video. When you are playing, your headphones connected to the pc or your console? Can you please help me??

Very curious. Would it be possible to pass 1920x1200 at 105 Hz, but record at 1920x1200 at 60 fps for example? Also they say nothing about Linux support on their page :(

Is this worth getting? like i use Stream labs OBS, will this make my stream better?

So in the end what was the verdict recommendation Live Gamer 4K vs 4K60 Pro MK.2?

i have dual pc . i have not graphic card on streaming pc . can i stream with h.264 (cpu) only ,without gpu?

After seeing your section on requirements, I had to do some research, to which I found that this card does in fact work with AMD GPUs. It needs an RX Vega or better, and this info can not only be found on several etailer sites, but also on the Elgato FAQ section. This is good news for me, as my RX 5700 8GB will handle the workload flawlessly, alongside the rest of my PC's hardware. Btw, have you tested this card out, to see how well it works for capturing 4K video footage from a camera? That's the primary reason I want it, so that I can get the best quality video recording in OBS or other software, and won't be bothering with an X1 or PS4 as that part doesn't interest me.

Have you tried it with an AMD card? The problem with AMD cards (being an AMD fan myself) is that the encoders are buggy and not very good quality. From what I remember the H265 encoder is pretty good... but useless for live streaming.

My gtx1080 has two hdmi 2.0 ports on it so will connecting one to my monitor and one to the capture card affect my gpu for gaming and how much.

helps a lot! Thanks :)

May sound kinda dumb, but my new PC a few months ago and everything is somewhat high end, running 32gb of RAM, an RTX 2070 super, but it’s just that my CPU is a Ryzen 5 3600, I understand that you said one of the requirements is an AMD Ryzen 7, but could I still benefit from this capture card when everything else I’m using is pretty top notch for the most part?

@EposVox Hi there, is there a quality difference If I just use a 1050ti or maybe a way better Nvidia Card in my streaming PC? Regards Kasumi

I have a question.. is it possible to add a separate audio channel for this device within OBS . My current capture card doesn’t allow this and my only reason to upgrade right now .. is if a card can do this. It’s so I’m able to add audio ducking and separate all audio within OBS thanks 🙏🏼

Kind of a dumb question but on a duel pc set up my streaming pc has a 2600x and gaming pc a 3600.. so I would need to upgrade my streaming pc to a ryzen 7 or higher? Before I use this card?

Do you get lag with it? I'm using shadowplay, but I think it's causing lag.

do i need a capture card if i dont want to stream? I just want to capture what is on my screen + audio from mic and then upload it. I've seen that with OBS i can do the job. Cant really understand why should i buy the elgato card? Just for the 4k and frames?

Fantastic video! Please just one question, i have large Samsung TV which has my PC and ps5 connected to it. If I buy the elgato 4k 60 mk2, can this work? My idea is setup the stream on the PC and switch HDMI to the ps5 and play on ps5 while it live stream to youtube, any thoughts?

I have a question.... i have a Ryzen 5 2600 and a RX 580. So when i play (soon) on my PS5 and record/stream that through the 4k60pro mk2 via OBS... is that possible? I just want to stream in 1080p60 but want to play 1080p120 with tha passthrough output from the capture card. I will never stream/record above 1080p60. So is that good enough?

Wait, why wouldn’t the 1650 work with this? The 1650 has the Volta NVENC encoding chip on it, which I thought was better than the Pascal one? Great video btw, very informative. I was looking at the Avermedia 4K so that I can use my 144hz monitor with no issues but this has definitely made my life harder by giving me an option 😂

Just wanted to say I'm using this capture card in a dual PC streaming setup and the specs listed are definitely NOT a hard requirement. My gaming PC has a GTX 2080ti, 32GB 3200mhz ram, and an i7 8700k CPU. My streaming PC however only has an i7 3770k, 16GB 2600mhz ram, and a GTX 1050ti graphics card. I'm able to Play games at 1080p, 240hz on my Alienware monitor with the amazing 240hz passthrough capability on this card, and I can stream and record easily at 1080p60hz with NVENC without it even causing a hiccup. I just want people to know that you DO NOT need a current gen system, or even the listed specs to actually use this card with great results. Elgato support told me directly that my system would not work, so I bought the card and tried it anyway and I'm very pleased I did.

Requirements always have essentially some amount of headroom built in to them, and are meant to cover all different uses like capturing 4K 60fps directly in the 4K Capture Utility software, streaming different resolutions, and other activities on the computer. So yes some can use this card with a slightly older system, but I still would ask people not to pick one up unless they meet the listed requirements. Sometimes specs are not simply performance related but newer platforms have advantages, and not everyone has their system optimized for capturing or has a dedicated system. If they are capturing a console, they may have only one PC which is running other software they need at the time. Many more factors at play.

I have tried streaming directly on my gaming PC and even that did not provide the Experience I was looking for.

EposVox Please advise which card to buy, I look at elgato 4kpro or Avermedia 4k live gamer. I have stream PC on Amd ryzen 7, i use only obs. I have been choosing for a week and I can’t understand what will be the best without problems. Thanks you man!

This board does exactly what I want, and so much I don't need (or want to pay for). Also, I'm down to 1 PCIE slot that I'd prefer to save. All I need to do is accurately capture the 4K output from my Panasonic FZ300 at 30Hz. Can you suggest a good quality USB 3.0 capture device that will appear as a video source in OBS on my well-powered Win10 PC?

Does this cap card magically sync audio with a gaming PC?

howdy! very helpful!!! thank you
