Hello hello dear Geek Zone community
Today, I bring you the unboxing of a video capture card that I ordered about 15 or 20 days ago and that has finally arrived.
I placed the order in another country, as it is very difficult to find them here in Cuba, and when they appear in buying and selling groups, they cost 4 or 5 times their price. I bought it with the intention of improving and expanding the quality of my content, as I often play on the PS3 and was limited without being able to record gameplays on the console since the screen recording function is only compatible with very low-resource games. So, the excitement is quite high.
Upon opening the package, the first thing I notice is that it is well protected, with plastic and an external packaging sturdy enough to keep it safe. The capture card's box itself is modern, with an eye-catching design that hints at the device's features, which, for an affordable price, looks quite good.
The manual is quite detailed, explaining everything from an introduction on how the product works, its specifications, features, and the connection and application

It really looks great and seems very good. Now I just need to test it to see how it works, which I hope will be useful.
Finally, I tested it with Bandicam and it worked perfectly. Due to the properties of the laptop I used, which is an i5 3rd gen with 4GB of RAM, I couldn't fully take advantage of it since my computer slows down, but as soon as I get access to another one, I'll be able to test its performance much better. However, for my console games, it's perfect, as it also allows me to take screenshots without having to access the PlayStation menu, which was a bit cumbersome.
This tool is ideal for gamers, content creators, and anyone who wants to record or stream high-quality video.
