Although I haven't been deeply involved in live streaming myself, much of the equipment for many streamers is actually set up by me.
You all know my personality ~~~ making setups simpler to reduce future maintenance hassles has always been my core selection criterion.
So, for this group of streamer clients with increasingly high demands for HD quality,
I chose the Narvitech NJ700 4K144 Gaming Capture Box for testing.
This is a professional-grade flagship capture box, primarily designed for pro gamers and creators.
From the packaging, it's clear it highlights 4K144 high quality, ultra-low latency, HDMI 2.1 high-speed transmission, and more.
For users needing to enhance image quality, screen stability, and input smoothness, it's an excellent choice.
After getting it, I found during installation that the NJ700's setup is incredibly simple.
Whether your video source is a PC, PS5, or Switch, it works.
Just connect all the cables correctly, and you're good to go—extremely high compatibility.
Even setups like ours with an extra AV receiver in the chain pass through fine.
Plus ~ the NJ700 has no driver installation headaches; plug and play.
And the performance and image quality are solid ~ 100% meeting client needs and my selection principles.
So, here's a quick recommendation article for readers with similar needs.
The NJ700 main unit looks like this below.
The shell is anodized aluminum for great heat dissipation ~ no worries about overheating during streams.
Size-wise, it's about the same as a 2.5" USB external HDD—doesn't take up much space anywhere.
The surface has markings for the corresponding connector interfaces.
For connections, just plug the matching cables into the right spots, and it's ready.
Also included in the box are:
HDMI 2.1 Cable, USB 3.2 C-C Cable, 3.5mm Audio Cable—One Each
For example, this end:
From left to right: 3.5mm headphone output jack, 3.5mm microphone input jack, and the USB-C port for connecting to the main streaming PC.
Note here: The PC's USB-C port needs at least USB 3.2 speeds (most modern PCs should have this).
This end has two HDMI ports:
The right one is the input from the device side (like PS5, Switch, or another PC) for audio/video coming in (Up to 4K p144 << after updating to the latest firmware).
The left one connects to your monitoring screen (Up to 4K144 HDR).
Our simple connection looks like this below, and you're ready to start.
We're using the popular streaming control software OBS to pair with it.
Special note: For the video source, remember to select "Video Capture Device."

And just like that, we're off and playing ~ the demo person is our whip-cracking old G.
(Bear with us—since we were having so much fun, we kinda forgot to tidy the desk.)
Then, in a late-night test stream to our fan page a few days ago,
you can check out the results from playing Mario Kart on Switch.
Basically, in streaming mode, we saw no latency or stuttering issues.
Capturing from PS5 is no problem either ~ we used PS5 + NINJA to record a 1080P video segment.
This is currently a mainstream resolution for online platforms.
The resulting video is below—feel free to check it out if interested.
Stable and fast performance, with the body shell feeling barely warm.
This means mainstream streaming resolutions are a piece of cake for the NJ700.
And now, the main event:
As mentioned earlier ~ the NJ700 can easily and quickly capture 4K p60 footage.
So, we specifically used PS5 + NINJA 4 to record a 4K p60 video segment.
For the 4K video, I recommend clicking the window below to watch.
The key focus for viewers is the video quality presented.
We went with lossless output, so you can see the footage's sharpness and color accuracy are nearly identical to the original.
The console's 4K144 output passes through the NJ700 to the display at full 4K144 resolution.
Smoothness is great too—with almost no latency in the monitored feed.
More details in the frame mean better visual enjoyment for quality-focused audiences—this is awesome.
You should notice these facts while watching the video below.
Also, while finishing this video, I reached out to touch the NJ700's surface.
Slightly warm ~~~ that's a sign of great efficiency, low heat generation, and solid cooling.
If you want to stream to YouTube or Twitch, Narvitech has tutorials ready:
Of course, you can connect directly to other platforms too (no extra tutorials compiled).
For me, I'm using it for OS operation tutorial recordings.
For example, I recorded a segment on rediscovering how to enable Bopomofo input method.
Check out the uploaded video quality (recommend clicking to YouTube for serious viewing).
That wraps up the article nicely.
You might notice ~~~ there are few images in this post!!!
Yes!!! That's exactly it!!!
The Narvitech NJ700's installation and use are that simple and convenient.
No hardware driver steps needed—just the basic three cables handle the crucial video capture for streaming.
Output resolution easily hits 4K quality, with color and detail performance that's noteworthy, satisfying most LCD TVs on the market.
Plus, with the NJ700's excellent performance, captured videos have low latency and high smoothness.
Keeping your stream in top-quality condition.
For gamers or digital creators wanting 4K ultra-high quality and smoothness in one go,
the NJ700—ready to go with minimal setup—is absolutely the most worthwhile flagship one-step solution on the market right now.
Highly recommend it for anyone aiming to dive into various streaming.
