Elgato Z73-jp 4K60 Capture Card

The Elgato Z73-jp is a USB 3.0 HDMI capture card built for streamers and creators who need 4K at 60 Hz or 1440p at 144 Hz input. It records gameplay or camera feeds directly into OBS, Streamlabs or similar software on Windows 10 and later. Dual 3.5 mm audio inputs let you mix microphone and line-level sources without an external mixer.

Upgrade from basic USB 2.0 grabbers

USB 2.0 devices top out at 1080p, while this card unlocks 4K60, 1080p240 and 1440p144 capture over USB 3.0. The HDMI loop-out passes the same 4K60 signal to a monitor with near-zero latency, so you can play and preview on a second screen. The jump is worth it when your content pipeline demands high refresh rates or 4K recording.

Check your ports and cables before ordering

You need a genuine USB 3.0 port on the host computer; USB 2.0 limits resolution to 1080p. The loop-out requires an HDMI cable rated for 4K60 to reach the external display. Ensure your recording drive has enough write speed for the chosen format and frame rate.

Questions about this item

Will the 14.33in W x 12.83in H x 9.06in D capture card fit on my desk next to a monitor?

The unit measures 14.33in wide, 12.83in high and 9.06in deep, so allow at least that much flat space plus cable clearance for the HDMI and USB 3.0 connectors.

What is the step people miss when installing the Z73-jp on Windows 10?

Connect the card to a USB 3.0 port — USB 2.0 limits capture to 1080P — then select the device in OBS or Streamlabs; no separate driver install is required.

Does the 3.5mm Mic In or Line In jack need periodic cleaning or replacement?

The 3.5mm audio ports are passive connectors with no moving parts; keep them free of dust and they will not require scheduled maintenance or replacement.
