Elgato Game Capture 4K S

Elgato Game Capture 4K S is intended for gaming, streaming, and capture setups where an HDMI source needs to be recorded or sent into an app. According to the source material, it supports up to UHD 4K60 capture, variable refresh rate, HDR10, and works with Windows, macOS, and iPadOS.

The unit uses 1 x HDMI 2.0 input, 1 x HDMI 2.0 pass-through output, and a USB-C system connection. Anyone who has routed a console or camera through a capture device knows that pass-through matters. It lets the source continue to a display while the computer receives the capture feed at the same time.

Why It Helps

A capture setup is easier to manage when the video source does not have to be split by extra hardware. The HDMI input brings the console or camera into the capture device, while the HDMI pass-through keeps the signal going to a monitor or display.

The USB-C connection keeps the computer side simple. With Windows, macOS, and iPadOS support listed in the source material, the same capture device can fit into different desk setups without changing the basic HDMI workflow.
