Verdict

Elgato HD60 X

9 / 10 Expert Rating

The best capture card for most console streamers — reliable 1080p60 capture with 4K60 HDR passthrough in a simple USB-C package.

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.
