Razer’s new entry-level gear was designed for streaming beginners

Razer is looking to lower the barrier to entry for live streaming with a budget-friendly webcam and capture card. Streaming newbies can add a video stream of themselves to their broadcast with the Kiyo X USB webcam.

As with many current games, you can choose between optimizing your webcam feed for fidelity or frame rate with the 1080p 30 fps and 720p 60 fps options. The autofocus feature should keep the image sharp and you can adjust the settings on the fly. With the Razer Virtual Ring Light app, you will be able to use your monitor’s glare as a light source.

The Ripsaw X capture card is also new. It can capture images up to 30 frames per second in 4K. Razer claims the device offers “near zero latency” thanks to its HDMI 2.0 and USB 3.0 connectivity. You can plug it into a camera with HDMI output to use it as a high-end webcam, or capture gameplay from a console.

These are more budget versions of other Razer devices, such as the Kiyo webcam, which has a built-in light ring, and the Ripsaw HD 60fps capture card. Kiyo X costs $ 80, while Ripsaw X will set you back $ 140. Both are available now on the Razer website and they will ship the next business day.
