The new Razer Ripsaw HD is a $159 screen capture card for PC, Xbox and more

Featuring 4K passthrough and a simple design, the Razer Ripsaw HD packs a punch.

Razer is no stranger to online game streaming which is why the announcement of their new entry-level screen capture cared is not too surprising. That card dubbed Ripsaw HD goes on sale April 11th for $159 comparing directly with the Elgato HD60 card but ten dollars cheaper.

While direct recording and broadcasting at 60 frames per second (FPS) at full HD are welcomed, it's the addition of 4K 60 FPS passthrough that is really exciting. That makes Ripsaw perfect for high-end PCs or the Xbox One X, which have more sophisticated screen capabilities.

Additional features include a simple design, USB 3.0 connection (Type-C), and microphone and headset jacks for audio. Those audio bits allow for native audio mixing for the player's game and microphone with no latency or syncing delays.

For setups, users can go simple with the easy plug-n-play design or go all-out with a dual-PC configuration with a dedicated box for gaming and a secondary for streaming with the Ripsaw in between.
