The built-in Live Streaming feature gets you up and running on Twitch or YouTube in no time. Live commentary can be easily enabled or disabled at any time during the stream. We downloaded the recording and streaming software from the Elgato website. During our tests, the Game Capture HD60 Pro worked flawlessly, with minimal CPU load, without dropping any frames and keeping the file sizes small, unlike the majority of capture cards available on the market today.
We can recommend this card to anyone looking for a relatively cheap way to get into capturing video at a high quality. Recording and streaming using this card is near effortless and quality and performance is excellent.
