Are there capture cards with such low latency you can use them to game through a computer?
I have a few consoles setup on my desk and I think it would be neat to be able forgo switching inputs on my monitor.
It could be useful for setting up a picture-in-picture system and using the inputs in EmuVR to play non-Retroarch consoles like my Xbox 360 and original Xbox.
Is this feasible? I would be fine playing at lower resolutions. I have attempted it with a cheap Ali Express HDMI to USB device but the latency threw a wrench into that idea. I am wondering if a more capable capture device could be the answer.
Also would my graphics card play a big factor? I have 1070ti so I feel like it should be fine.

It’s not cheap but I did this just fine with the Elgato 4K
Yep, that's what we use at work.
The latency isn't too bad? At $200 that doesn't seem too bad compared to some alternatives I've seen suggested
I used the PCIE card. The latency is imperceptible. It’s meant to be in between your GPU and monitor for streaming from a second PC.
