£350 for an HDMI input, eh?
So I assume it will also record 1440p@60fps?
I agree the ~$473 USD price is a bit much.
This sort of reminds me of the Hauppauge HD PVR and Hauppauge Colossus card but in a 4K version. Nice to see but I have no need at this point and time.

And with no hardware encoder, that means you need a beast PC. The recording is completely dependent on what features your CPU/GPU has. So for example, the 580 cannot do 4k60 recording so therefore the Elgato cannot do 4k60 recording.
