* Requires Intel® Core™ i7 with discrete graphics card, SSD Raid 0, and a read/write speed of 300 MB/s.

Play and Stream on One Screen
Another benefit from the super speed of USB 3.0 is that you’ll be able to play directly in the preview window without feeling dragged by latency.
You can now interact naturally with viewers while not losing focus to your game!
Silky Smooth Action in 60 FPS
ExtremeCap U3 preserves your gameplay in crisp clear and silky smooth footages at up to 60 frames per second. Even the most fast-paced FPS or action-packed ARPG can be captured fully.
Built for Your Favorite Software
Wouldn’t it be easier to stream or edit footages with software you are already familiar with? ExtremeCap U3 works perfectly with DirectShow compliant software such as XSplit, OBS, Wirecast, VLC, PotPlayer, or Adobe Premiere Pro.
You can’t deny the high quality content that you get from this though, and at the end of the day, that’s really what counts for most people.
PSNation
Recording footage from the Xbox One, PS4, Wii U and PC was a smooth experience, and streaming was just as satisfying.
