Which Colour Format For Elgato 4k Pro MK II
NV12, YUY2 or XRGB?

In order of what may look most to least accurate: XRGB, YUY2, NV12
The thing to note is that streaming sites always send out NV12 for SDR content, but that is for the stream as a whole. If you have sources that use XRGB or YUY2, they'll be formatted into NV12 by OBS rather than by the capture card, which can look better
So all in all use nv12?
OBS itself should be set to NV12 , capture sources should be XRGB or YUY2 when possible
Thank you so much!
