And it seems to do a tremendous job keeping everything cool. Inside there's a cooling fan, it's fairly quiet, but you can certainly feel it if you place your hand over the top. The actual physical unit is incredibly simple, albeit loaded up to the gills with RGB but also thoughtfully designed.
What it does is deliver all of that without breaking a sweat.

That part is system dependent though, and on my PC I was only given the option of 100mbps as a maximum. It delivers uncompressed video, with a choice of h.264 or h.265 at a maximum bitrate of 240mbps. The Live Gamer Bolt tops out at 4K resolution at 60 FPS with or without HDR. OK it's not zero, but at 50ms it's so close you'll never, ever notice it. The magic of using Thunderbolt 3 is that insane performance and essentially zero latency. But it does make it a perfect mobile solution for folks using a number of current and future gaming laptops.
Without Thunderbolt 3 it won't even power on. Unless, like I am, you're using one of only two current AMD-based motherboards you won't be able to use this capture card at all. On one hand, it's going to be one of the main barriers to entry for a number of people, especially those using AMD Ryzen systems. That's where the Thunderbolt 3 connection comes into play on the Live Gamer Bolt. Thunderbolt 3 delivers the performance but it'll also stop some from using it at all. Internal capture cards hit the magic 4K60 first because it's just easier when you don't have a USB cable to act as a bottleneck. On the face of it that might not sound that impressive, after all, we're two years on and it performs the same as something much older?īut this isn't an internal capture card for one, so the benefits of using a PCIe x4 connection aren't there.
In virtually every way, the Live Gamer Bolt is as impressive as the Live Gamer 4K, a capture card I've recommended to all and been using myself for the past couple of years. Source: Windows Central (Image credit: Source: Windows Central)
