Elgato 4K30 USB 3.0 Capture Card
This external HDMI capture device records up to 4K at 30 fps and streams at 1080p 60 fps over USB 3.0. It is built for streamers, educators and content creators who need a simple way to bring console or camera footage into a PC or Mac.
Plug-and-play installation
The unit requires no driver installation or external power supply; it is recognised as a webcam the moment it is connected to a USB 3.0 port. Problems usually arise when the host port only negotiates USB 2.0 speeds, which prevents 1080p 60 fps capture, or when the source device sends an HDCP-protected signal that the card cannot decode.
USB 3.0 bandwidth and resolution limits
The USB 3.0 link caps capture at 4K 30 fps or 1080p 60 fps; higher frame rates at 4K are not supported. HDMI loop-out passes the signal through with no added latency, but the capture path cannot exceed the stated resolutions or frame rates.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the capture card is recording at 1080p 60fps after connecting it?
Open your streaming software such as OBS, add the device as a video capture source, and check the resolution and frame-rate settings show 1080p at 60 fps while the LED indicator remains solid.
What cables and accessories are included versus what I must provide myself?
The box contains the capture card with HDMI input, HDMI loop-out, USB 3.0 cable and separate audio input/output jacks; you supply the HDMI source cable and a USB 3.0 port on the host computer.
Should I choose the 4K 30fps or 1080p 60fps mode for my setup?
Select 4K 30fps when the source outputs 4K resolution and you need maximum detail; choose 1080p 60fps for fast-motion gaming or streaming where higher frame rate matters more than resolution.
