dont think you can use a console with a laptop screen because of the way laptop screens work 

Main PC |CPU - i7-6700k|GPU - R9 290x tri-x 4gb|RAM - 16gb ddr4|MOBO - MSI z170 - A PRO|HDD - WD 1TB/240gb Sandisk |PSU - 700w Raidmax

Laptop |CPU - i7 4720hq|GPU - 960m 2gb|Ram - 8gb 2x4|Model - y50-70 Touch|SSD - 240gb Patriot drive|Display - 1920x1080 IPS touch

Hey Cameron,

 

I understand what you're saying and unfortunately this cannot be done. There will always be lag unless you had a separate monitor that has hdmi in.

 

Source: from experience.

Laptops are not monitors OP :P

Basic guide to CPU's!

If I said I were 14, you would call me a kid. If I say 70, you’ll entitle me too old. If I say 20 you say I’m inexperienced and if I say 40 than I'm too boring.

i have the elgato hd 60 and lets say this IT LAGS. idc what ppl say it LAGS. PERIOD. so i bought an hdmi splitter off amazon for 30 bucks and split the source at the xbox, and send one ffeed to the elgato and the other to the display. seemless and NO lag.

powered splitters work better.

There will always be lag no matter what, no matter how OP the computer is or how weak.

Better off getting a TV/Monitor.

Intel i5-6600k (Cooled by a 212 evo) - Asus Z170-A - Asus Dual OC GTX 1060 - NZXT S340 - WD 1TB (Getting SSD this month, hopefully) - 8GB DDR4-2400

LG G4 - Asus Zenwatch 2
