Recommend for anyone streaming or recording video game play.

Elgato HD60 Pro Game Capture Card

Card work as expected and rated. I don't use much of its software for streaming so can't really say anything but capturing screen for two pc setup works fine.
The device is easy to set up and is very robust and does not feel cheap.
I've had problems with external capture devices in the past. This device gives me NO issues at all. It does exactly what it should, and the installation procedure is the easiest I've seen.
I use this to capture my Original Xbox One and my Nintendo Switch, which is does perfectly with minimal latency, less than 5 frames by my estimates.
All the information I needed was on the Elgato website and installation was fairly easy.

Delivery was efficient and perfect quality product. Product is small as well which is great.
The design is sleek and small, perfect to take along with you to gaming events or to your friends house to record some co-op gameplay.

What customers say about "Features"

Elgato HD60 Pro Game Capture Card

Sufficiently low delay to be able to play games through the capture stream rather than needing a second display. We have used it for clear capture from ps4, wiiu, switch, mini nes with no problems.
I use this to capture my Original Xbox One and my Nintendo Switch, which is does perfectly with minimal latency, less than 5 frames by my estimates.
The free software that comes with the Elgato HD60 Pro is perfect and makes streaming simple as all sound is directly transferred over!
Recording is instant, when pressing the record button, it records instantly without delay (unlike the Avermedia HD2).
Very difficult to install and get working without getting the message (no device found error).
