EVGA XR1 lite Capture Card, Certified for OBS, USB 3.0, 4K Pass Through, PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, 141-U1-CB20-LR

Might be the best capture card in this price range. Captures 1440p144fps with no problem (it can also capture 4k, but I don't have a 4k monitor so wasn't able to test that), was plug and play with obs. Like with some other capture cards that include headphone monitoring and a line in, obs doesn't automatically capture the audio, you have to add it as an additional source. But unlike other similar capture cards (looking at you, razer), the audio still sounds great even using this approach. The line in also solved a separate issue I was having with audio from a GoXLR Mini going to a laptop, as I was able to run the line out from the GoXLR to the line in on the capture card to capture the audio. The rgb is a nice touch and looks good, though I'm not sure if there's any way of setting it outside of the controls on the card itself.EDIT: Figured out how to set the rgb, you can download the software for it from their website. Super lightweight and simple software.Overall, the card looks and works great and is probably the best option in the $100 price range.

I have used this for my PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch and it worked seamlessly for all. My mac and PC register the USB input as a camera without needing any software or driver installations making it very easy to add to any video capture software for streaming or making videos. I have primarily been using it to use Sony RX100M7 as a webcam for my computers and it works great.

Only downside is the passthrough is capped at 60hz even in 1080p. It can do 1080p@12hz passthrough but you put in that mode and doing so disables the capture function making the device useless. So marketing is a little misleading thereAside from that the actual capture function is great! Solid 60fps console gameplay in 1080p. 30FPS in 4k which will match what current consoles are capable of! No lag or stuttering during stream ever and the picture is crisp. Its even fast enough to play directly on OBS! Only noticed about 100-200ms delay on it. Which is playable in almost everything except maybe shooters or fighting games. In those I use pass through and play with no delay directly on the monitor.Points for setup too. By far the easiest capture card I have ever used! Its literally plug and play with no software to download. OBS and windows just pick it up! Plug it in and boom OBS will see it as a source and your good to go. Some report audio lag (sound not matching video, delayed) I didnt notice this but I also add the capture card as a separate audio input capture so I can mute it etc from obs and that is the reported fix for this if you experience it so I suggest muting the video capture in obs and doing the audio capture separately for more audio control in obs and no lag :) if your on a budget this is the bang for your buck capture card.

Works great on my Xbox.

I purchased both the XR-1 Lite and the XR-1 Pro. I've had no problems with either product, but it should be known that there is HDCP protection for some things on both devices - namely, connecting a cellphone or a PS4 to it - which require going to the EVGA website in order to download an official software patch to turn off HDCP on the devices. Additionally, the PS4 has on board HDCP protection enabled by default, requiring you to go into the PS4's system settings in order to turn it off if you want to use it with a Capture Card in the first place.The video and audio quality is fairly great, but there are sometimes delays/de-syncs in audio capture -- however: this does not appear to be a fault of the capture card, as turning off the audio/video source in OBS can sometimes change the delay timing. Point being, there are some finicky things that can be observed with the capture card, but they do not currently appear to be issues with the device itself.The Pro version includes a headset port, and the dial changes the crossfade between game volume and headset volume. While useful for cheaper streaming setups where the user doesn't have a dedicated external microphone, it'll get less use if you utilize a dedicated USB microphone. So, your mileage with that port may vary depending on your setup; however, it is advertised as also being able to be used for in-game voice communication purposes. I have not tested that at this time, so cannot comment on that viability or any issues therein. Also consider that the PS4 and Xbox controllers both often have native headphone ports, already, which afford you the benefit of not having to be tethered to a device when playing; and similar freedom of movement when considering Bluetooth headset support. Simply put: you may already have other options/methods, for that feature, available to you.The biggest benefit, I would say, would be for those who have multiple consoles. Because the Capture Card takes an input and redirects it as a dual-output, you only really need to utilize one HDMI port for your monitor/TV, while swapping the devices' HDMI cables on the Capture Card as needed; essentially using it as a manual quasi-input-switcher without having to mess with cables behind the TV if it has a limited number of HDMI inputs, or if you have more consoles than TV inputs. Alternatively, because it is technically for use with something like OBS for streaming purposes, it can be used in-a-pinch with little more than a laptop and the OBS software as your video display, if you find yourself without a monitor/TV at that moment.

The media could not be loaded. I bought this capture card for my dual pc setup and it works very good! The quality is good and price is better! It is exactually what I needed and as a streamer it has to perform good with no lag. The image quality is also very good and clear! Worth the money does the same as Elgato and cheaper price!
