Simple capture for consoles and laptops

Game Capture 4K S is Elgato's entry point to 4K capture. It's UVC, so it works plug and play over USB-C with Windows, Mac and USB-C iPads, and with apps like OBS and Discord as well as Elgato Studio. It records 4K at 60fps, or 1080p at up to 120fps, and passes your game through to your TV or monitor at up to 4K60 HDR10 or 1080p240 with VRR, so you play on the big screen with no lag while the PC records. A 3.5mm analogue input lets you mix in chat or commentary audio. It's well suited to Switch 2, PS5 and Xbox Series S setups.

Where the 4K X makes more sense

The 4K S uses HDMI 2.0, so passthrough tops out at 4K60 and 1440p120. If you have a 4K 120Hz or 144Hz TV and a PS5 or Xbox Series X, the HDMI 2.1 Game Capture 4K X keeps those modes. HDR capture on the 4K S is limited to 1080p60 and only on Windows. It needs a USB 3.0 Type-C port and, on Windows, Windows 11 with an 8th-gen Core i5 or Ryzen and a GTX 10-series class GPU. It only captures unencrypted HDMI, so disable HDCP on PlayStation first.

  • 4K60 capture with HDR10 support (HDR capture Windows only)
  • Up to 1080p240 passthrough with VRR
  • Play-through preview latency as low as 30ms on capable setups

Questions

Before you buy

Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
