![]() It’s pretty much a plug and play device and you let the drivers install then you’re done. You have to buy a splitter/converter to make it work. A major setback though, this re-release of the Ripsaw does not come along with a component port – this means you are not given the privilege anymore to stream last generation consoles: PS3, Xbox 360, WiiU, and retro consoles. And in the front, you have the microphone and headset/speaker 3.5mm ports. The capture card also has an anti-slip rubber mat at its base just in case if you’re going to place it on any slippery surface.Īt the back portion of the device, you have one HDMI-In and one HDMI-Out, and the USB 3.0 Type-C port to power the capture card.

Provided that this is my first ever capture card device, I’ll tell you, Razer’s lack of software support for this thing is a major setback, to be honest. I decided to pick Razer since I have faith in the brand. There are brand alternatives if you think the Razer and Elgato are expensive – Ezcap, MiraBox, and AGPtek. These devices aren’t cheap either, so if you want to invest in streaming then you have to make sure that the commitment is there for it to pay off. While consoles provide the feature of linking your PS4 or Xbox One to YouTube and Twitch, the limitations show that you aren’t able to customize your stream layouts to make it look fancier, or even control where you want to put your face – and avoid the annoyance of having your face camera cover a section of your screen. 8,299 (Datablitz) / USD $159.99 (Razer Store)Ĭapture cards are relatively important when you want to begin streaming your games live on platforms you desire – Mixer, Facebook, YouTube, and others.
