High refresh capture you can carry

Game Capture 4K X brings HDMI 2.1 to an external capture card. It passes through and records at up to 4K144, plus 1440p144 and 1080p240, so PS5, Xbox Series X and gaming PC players can keep their TV or monitor's high-refresh modes while capturing. HDR10 and variable refresh rate passthrough are supported, and it's plug and play on Windows, Mac and USB-C iPads with OBS, Streamlabs, Twitch Studio, vMix, Meld and Elgato's own software. Elgato Capture adds unlimited recording with no watermarks, a separate commentary mic track, AAF export for editors and Stream Link.

Check your port and screen

To get the full 4K144 you need a USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) port; on a 5Gbps Gen 1 port it still works, but at reduced capture resolutions. Displays using Display Stream Compression limit it to 4K120. HDR capture is currently Windows only. If you play at 4K60 or below, the cheaper Game Capture 4K S does the job. For a fixed streaming PC, the internal 4K Pro adds 8K60 passthrough. Only unencrypted HDMI can be captured, so turn off HDCP on PlayStation.

  • Up to 4K144 capture and passthrough (4K120 with Display Stream Compression)

Questions

Before you buy

Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
This one is out of stock at the moment. Stock does come back in - WhatsApp us on 079 491 0181 with the model and we will tell you what the supplier is showing and let you know when it lands, rather than leaving you to keep checking the page.
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.
