Verdict

AGPTEK USB 3.0 HDMI Video Capture Card

3 / 10 Expert Rating

A rock-bottom budget clone.

AVerMedia Streamer Ultra

5 / 10 Expert Rating

A plausible budget pick for live-commerce streamers who don't need more than 4K30 capture, but it's untested by independent reviewers and clearly the junior sibling to the GC535.
