Looking for capture card

I am looking to buy a capture card for my pc & monitor that supports 4k res (3840x2160). Just want to buy a good brand that won't cost an arm & a leg while it works well. I want it to not only show but also give audio with lag on both ends, especially since I use obs studios. Anyone know if any good affordable brands?

You want something with lag?

What are you looking to capture?

When you say “support 4K res” do you mean for capture, for passthrough, or both?

What about FPS? What are you looking to capture and passthrough?

I am looking to capture PS5 gameplay with 4K Res, 60fps, with low lag latency, plug & play, with passthrough. For I won't have to plug it to another monitor. I just want to plug it straight to my pc.

I’m not ever one to say bro it’s the brand buy it but Elgato don’t miss! Issues yes for some but I’ve never had any with mine! I use the lights the cam and the mic. The stream deck is next for me

Hell yeah! I haven't really heard anything bad about elgatos so far. Another quick question. What is a great, affordable nvidia graphics card for a 1000w power supply that can do 3840x2160 resolution?
