i5-4690k
16gb ram
nVidia GeForce GTX 1070
1TB Samsung 840 Evo SSD which I had the software set to use for recording storage
So I actually purchased this on May 11th so I could record my (admittedly rather bad) gameplay from my consoles. When I got it I had a few issues which I'll detail but first I'll go through the pros.
First off the unit is really easy to setup. Just download the software from the website and install it then connect the device. If you wish you can install the software ahead of time while you wait for a unit you ordered to arrive.
The software itself is pretty stable. I didn't have any real issues during recording. The only one I had, which may of very well been user error, was that it seemed to be "recording" where the clock was moving but it didn't record. I had messed with some settings prior so I reset everything to default and it worked fine after.
I'm actually able to get full 1080p 60fps without issue. This worked fine out of the box. It may have to do with my specs though and as such your mileage may vary. There are steps on the Elgato help site that can work towards improving performance if for some reason you are not able to get that.
The recording was clear and didn't have any frame drops. Please be aware if you are trying to play the video via VLC and getting frame drops or what appears to be a scrambled picture please try another player that might actually use the system decoder. VLC uses its own decoder and it seemed to have issues when I tested my first couple of recordings. When I used a different player it worked fine. If people have to know I do use K-Lite Codec Pack but I don't think that was what fixed it but it may affect what system decoder was actually used. The fact that I use that doesn't constitute an endorsement or recommendation of that software. The issue with VLC may be resolved in a future update of the software if it isn't already.
Elgato Support is very very good. They communicated via email and there may be a delay but responses are from actual people and I didn't have any troubleshooting based auto-replies. I did get one for the initial email receipt but that just gave appropriate response timeframes so that expectations could be established. Kudos to them for doing that.
You do not have to hook up the HDMI out if you don't want to. For me I was just using it to hook up to the computer and using the software is perfectly acceptable.
The delay is pretty much invisible. I was able to play the game using purely the feed from the software without any real issue.
Now for the cons.
My unit had a seemingly loose USB connection. When moving the unit would sometimes disconnect. I did get the unit replaced with Elgato where the issue continued. As a second step they actually sent me a replacement USB 3 to USB C cable (same as what was in the box) and that seems to have resolved the issue. So... if your unit seems to drop out while you are moving it then it may be advisable to just try a different cable and see if the issue persists. I can only guess there was a loose wire in the connector that plugged into the Elgato HD60 S.
If the unit does happen to disconnect while the Game Capture HD program is running then it may crash. This may result in the loss of the recording or corrupted data in it. For the most part, this is a minor issue because it shouldn't disconnect on its own anyways.
Elgato HD60 S
Pros:
- Capture card's design has excellent build quality, and it's very compact too!
- Immediately picks up the video signal of my Nintendo Switch the moment the system is turned on
- Excellent video quality
- Frame rate is at 60 FPS
Cons:
- Colors will be a bit off under the default settings. You can use OBS's Color Correction filter to improve them, so it's an easy fix.
- The audio from the game's capture will fade in once the system is turned on, but this is really a minor complain on my end.
- The Elgato's firmware and software get constant updates like about every week or so. Unfortunately, you NEED to keep everything up to date, otherwise your capture card will not work properly.
- Needless to say, you definitely must download pretty much all of the software from Elgato's website.
Now for the Avermedia Live Gamer Ultra
Pros:
- Excellent design, as it has it's own vent to extract heat (The Elgato HD60 S does not have a vent that is visible, but that's not important to know.)
- Great video quality
- Frame rate is at 60 FPS at max
- Updates are not constant, but they do happen when updates for the firmware are needed.
Cons:
- Build quality on the capture card itself feels just a little cheap, but it definitely beats the build quality of the first Live Gamer Portable capture card, which I had back in 2015, but it died on me months later.
- The video signal reception is delayed the moment you turn on your console, but it also depends on the console you are using. Unlike the Elgato, you have to wait a few seconds for the video feed to show up in OBS (If you use that, which I also recommend)
- Colors on the video feed may be a bit off by default, but then again, OBS's Color Correction filter can fix that easily in seconds.
In conclusion, these two capture cards that I own are very much neck-and-neck in terms of quality, durability, technique, software, and also firmware features. No matter which capture card you use, however, I strongly recommend using OBS for the best streaming experience (or recording).
1. Your computer has USB 3.1 or USB 3.0 ports.
2. Your computer meets the system requirements.
3. Install the latest firmware and drivers.
4. Install Elgato Gaming Software.
After doing all of that, I plugged the capture card into my PC, launched the Elgato Gaming Software, and it worked perfectly. I was a bit worried that it wouldn't work on Ryzen, but I had no issues. It has so little lag you can almost play through the preview Window, and the quality looks amazing. If you want a good capture card for recording PS4, Xbox One, PC, Nintendo Switch and more, pick this up.
UPDATE 7/14/2019
The USB 3.0 cable which was included this capture card eventually stopped working after about 6 months of having this capture card, so I had to order a new USB cable for it. Not enough to drop the rating, but I thought I should warn people that the included USB cable may stop working eventually. Also one great feature I failed to mention was that it supports 4K 60 Hz passthrough. What this means is that I can play something like my PC or PS4 Pro in 4K while recording in 1080 60 FPS. No need to lower resolution on 4K capable consoles at all. I also have no issues using it stream all of my consoles using Streamlabs OBS. Still highly recommend this capture card. Just be weary of the USB cable issue.

O produto exige bastante do computador que fará o stream. O Meu Hardware é um notebook com i7i78565u, placa de vídeo é uma NVIDIA® GeForce® 930MX e tenho 8GB de RAM. Quando coloco para roda em 1080p a 60fps, apresenta lentidão e uma perda de frames cai para uns uns 50 fps. Quando coloca a 720p a 60fps roda sem lentidão e perda de frames.
O Produto foi testado o OBS Studio e no Stream Labs, funciona bem em ambas as ferramentas.
A própria ferramenta da Elgato funciona muito bem.

Il Dispositivo di Registratore Giochi è di alta qualità e funziona perfettamente. È stato facile da configurare e l'interfaccia utente è intuitiva. Il prezzo è leggermente alto, ma la qualità del prodotto lo giustifica. Il packaging è solido e protettivo, ma avrei preferito un design più accattivante.
La spedizione è stata veloce e puntuale. In generale, consiglio questo prodotto a chiunque sia alla ricerca di un registratore di alta qualità per le sessioni di gioco.
El packaging está muy bien y la instalación es sencilla. Incluye un software de uso generalmente intuitivo que permite configurar el setup, e incluso dispone de escenas predeterminadas para hacer emisión. Todo esto requiere claro está un puerto usb de alta velocidad, pero con los equipos actuales no es dificil montar un PC economico y con buen rendimiento.
Como única contra, en mi caso, que era conectar la PS4, habría preferido saber más cosas que el software no explica. De hecho, al contrario que con la llave, el HD60 requiere ciertos ajustes puntuales en la consola para funcionar sin fallos o conflictos. Eso si, una vez resueltos funciona perfectamente. Actualmente uso el OBS studio y me encanta que puedo proyectar la captura en mi monitor sin perder un apice de velocidad, sonido, etc.
