Verdict

Elgato HD60 S+

8 / 10 Expert Rating

HDR10 capture at 1080p60 with clean 4K60 passthrough — the middle rung of Elgato's lineup done well.

Roland VC-1-DL

7 / 10 Expert Rating

A genuinely useful multi-format converter for legacy AV environments, far more niche and pricier than a typical gaming capture card.
