Verdict

AVerMedia Live Gamer 4K

6 / 10 Expert Rating

Still a capable 4K PCIe capture card if you can find it cheap and don't need HDR, otherwise the GC575 replaced it for good reason.

EVGA XR1 Lite

7 / 10 Expert Rating

A smart way to get onto EVGA's XR1 platform for less, as long as you don't need the full card's onboard mic mixing.
