Solved! Capture cards for Switch - advice please?

[KandyKitty]

My son wants a capture card so h can record gameplay on his Switch then upload to YouTube via his laptop. The only one we have been recommended to use is the Elgato HD60S, but his laptop won't run it.
Laptop spec is:
AMD Ryzen 7 2700U with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx processor
AMD Radeon(TM) RX Vega 10 Graphics Card
7.0 GB RAM
Windows 10
1TB hard drive

You tried it and it did not work or you think it won't work due to the specs? It should work.

I thought it would be an expensive risk to buy and try, then find out it didn't work. So I went on a website that is supposed to check the spec of your PC/Laptop for compatibility, and it indicated that the processor was not good enough.

That is a new Ryzen 7 CPU, it's more than enough to run any capture card.
