Swudloe C7-01 USB 3.0 Capture Card, 1080p

The Swudloe C7-01 capture card is listed for 1080p video capture over USB 3.0, with HDMI pass-through and a 3.5 mm microphone input. Its listed capture resolution is 1080p, while the title's 60FPS claim and feature text specify a 4K@30Hz pass-through mode, so buyers should distinguish capture from display output.

USB 3.0 capture and HDMI pass-through are useful for routing a console or camera feed to a computer while retaining a separate display connection.

The listing specifically says console party chat audio is not captured.

What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing's title and feature copy make a 60FPS capture claim, while the technical details only specify 1080p, and compatibility differs across sections: Windows is listed as the operating system and Windows 7 with USB 3.0 as the minimum, while the feature copy also claims Mac OS and Android support. Confirm compatibility for the intended computer and setup before buying. The claimed 4K@30Hz pass-through is distinct from 1080P 60FPS capture, and the listing also names digital TV tuner standards despite presenting the product as a capture card, so treat tuner capability as unconfirmed.
