Posted April 16, 2022 Hey All im trying to use my 6th gen intel i7 Asus Rog Laptop as a capture/streaming computer to connect my gaming rig to. Im looking for an affordable USB type C or USB 3 external HDMI capture device thats able to do 1080p 60. 30 if needed. Any recommendations from personal use that are on amazon? ive seen a few but was wondering if anyone had one they had used they could recommend.

Posted April 16, 2022 Elgato game capture hd60s worked fine for my friends xbox. May I ask what you're using it for? You don't really need a capture card unless you're recording an external device such as a console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incase doing all of that in your primary system wouldn't be an option yes you'd need a capture card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really just doing it for the short term till i get more core/thread cpu. I want to declutter my desk with external drives and offload some of the USB ports onto another computer (my laptop) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like using $200 for something you don't really need is just unnecessary here if I'm honest. Have you tried streaming/recording before and had issues?
