Your PC will do if your graphics card is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 600 or higher.
System requirements
- PC: Windows 10 (64-bit)
- Quad Core processor Intel Core i5 of the 4th generation (i5-4xxx
or comparable)
- Intel HD or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 600 Series graphics (or
better)

With the PS4 you can remove the HDCP lock in the settings under System and with the PS3 you need an HDMI splitter where the signal is decrypted, which you could also use with the PS4.
Hey,
Do you mean as in for capturing gameplay from the pc or from a console? If pc, it's hard to do and I have done it. But there are certain draw backs. Because the card does most encoding on the device itself. CPU usage is low. But if you stream and use a software like obs. Then your CPU will be still used to encode the stream.
This is currently a problem with the Elgato Gamecapture software. I have a similar problem with Streamlink. Directly via Elgato software the quality is poor, frame drops and more the result. However, if I uninstall the software and feed directly into OBS without it, the quality is great. I hope Elgato fixes this problem soon.
If you want to record the ps4 / xbox one with it, you simply have to deactivate hcdp on the console, then everything works. (You can then simply no longer watch netflix, for example).
On the manufacturer's homepage, it says "Intel i5-4xxx quad-core or newer" under system requirements. There are certainly i5s from the 4th generation that are faster than your i7-3820, but I think this CPU has comparable performance.
The question is probably more what else you want to do on the PC at the same time.
According to the offiizellen Elgato website (https://help.elgato.com/customer/en/portal/articles/2122549-supported-resolutions-for-elgato-game-capture-hd60-pro), unfortunately no 4:3 resolutions are supported, only 16:9 :(
No. The 144 Hz on your main monitor still remain. I stream and have a 240 Hz monitor and the second is connected with hdmi. Don't worry about it. The smooth picture still remains.
Reading helps...
No, not with this card, as can be seen from the description:
"in stunning 1080p Full HD quality".
Try the 4k version:
Elgato Game Capture 4K60 Pro (Xbox 360, PC, PS4, Xbox One)
Hello
Yes, this is possible. The capture card works with various 3rd software (OBS, Xplit). For you I recommend the standard software from Elgato so that the x264 encoder chip is used and you do not need such a powerful PC.
Quality is 1080p 60FPS
For 4K footage I recommend something else.
Elgato 4K60pro
Hoi Spix,
A brief explanation of what a capture card does:
With the capture card you can record your main PC with a separate machine.
So as long as you don't have a separate steam machine, you will always have losses.
Hello all,
I recently bought an Elgato HD60 Pro and plugged it into an x16 slot (unfortunately I only have this slot). The aim was to play on the PC with my PS5 (for streaming). Unfortunately, the connection is very poor and the picture is not smooth. Since my front 3 USB ports don't work ("current overvoltage at the USB port") and I thought maybe it was the power supply (HP 500W), I had a be quit! 700W installed today. Unfortunately, the problem persists. Now my questions:
Does the Elgato HD60 Pro also work properly on an x16 slot?
What settings are necessary?
3. is it possible that the PS5 is still lagging behind in terms of software and updates from Sony are necessary in order to be able to play with it via capture card?
Sorry, I don't have much of a clue, but for the sake of clarity I'll list my installed PC parts:
GPU: Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080, 8gb
CPU: Intel i7-8700k
RAM: 16 Gb HyperX 2600 Mhz
Mainboard: MS Omen - 7A61
SSD 500gb
HDD 2 Tb
Water cooling OMEN
I bought this gaming PC a week ago second hand from Ebay-Kleinanzeigen and everything works fine. He had already told me that the front 3 USB ports don't work, but I strongly assumed that it was because of the weak power supply. But it doesn't work with the new one either.
I would be very happy if you could help me.
Greetings
Very good question. I had 3 Elgato 4k capture cards and every single one had overheating problems and it wasn't even with the other components, they were all water cooled. The card itself is just so poorly built that all sorts of streaming and recording to 1440p or 4k will render the card useless within a few months.
I therefore recommend the "AverMedia 4k". They have informed themselves well and have built thermal pads into their card. I've been using it for 3 years without any problems.
No, it definitely does not work, the output supports a maximum of 1080p/60Hz, so only a Full HD signal will arrive at the TV.
The external HD60S+ would have a 4K passthrough, but it only records Full HD, so with an internal card you have to go for the 4k60 to get a 4K signal at the output (in which case you can also record in 4K).
Hope this helps :)

Hmm, I've never tried this before, to be honest.
But the capture card works as follows:
The signal is tapped via HDMI IN.
It is then looped to a monitor via Signal Out, so that you can still play on a console, for example. (I only use the HDMI IN on the PC, as I only want to tap the signal via OBS for transmission via Twitch).
So if the camera supports live output via HDMI (probably miniHDMI or something on the camera, then with a cable to normal HDMI as output), that should work.
Information but without guarantee :)
