Elgato 4K60 Pro is The First Consumer Capture Card to record 4K 60 FPS Gamplay
Elgato has revealed their first “consumer-priced” capture card that is capable of grabbing gameplay in stunning 4K 60 FPS. Say hello to the Elgato 4K60 Pro.
The previous-gen 4K capture cards could only take in 30 FPS, so the 4K60 Pro will allow normal gamers to take their streaming and capturing to the next level. This professional-grade capture solution will allow you to grab beautifully-smooth 60 FPS footage from any console or gaming PC capable of playing games in 4K. This includes the current generation PS4 Pro and Xbox One X.
