I'm using a blackmagic intensity shuttle (usb 3 version of the pro that dahuman is using) and I haven't really noticed any lag. I've never actually tried to play it on my computer as I've only used it as a pass-through for playing on my tv and capturing video. The games I capture are music games though(timing is very important), but the pass-through doesn't introduce any lag as far as I can tell. I'm not quite sure, but I believe that the "hdcp"? prevents you from directly connecting your 360/ps3 with an hdmi cable to the device and you will need some kind of pass-through. I've never actually tried on mine though... (I have component cables for both as well, so I would just use those)

The only problem I had with the shuttle was actually getting it set-up as it's quite a pain in the behind. It's very finnicky with what usb3 chipsets it will work with. It wouldn't work at all on my 1x usb3 add-in card, nor my old mobo (asrock p67 extreme6). I've had no problems on my new mobo (asus maximus extreme iv) nor with my add-in card (asus u3s6 usb3/sata6 card)


360 doesn't have HDCP issues while playing games, whereas the PS3 is a device lock out, that's why I have the HDFury2 for capturing since component cables can't have the full visual quality vs HDMI due to setting differences on the PS3.
