On the PC side, it supports 1080p and 1440p 120 FPS capture and 1080p 240 Hz and 1440p 144 Hz passthrough. On top of this, there's VRR or Variable Refresh Rate support, so you can game with G-SYNC or FreeSync enabled.

One of the device's exciting features is that it can upscale and downscale to 4K, so you can game in whatever resolution while ensuring you're streaming at the desired one. There are also integrated dual 3.5mm headphone ports, another streamer-friendly addition that allows users to connect to console party chats.

If you're looking for a compact and portable capture card that supports the latest consoles and PC gaming hardware, the TUF Gaming Capture Box-4K Pro is worth checking out. It currently retails for $259.99 USD.
