7 / 10 Expert Rating
A sensible mid-tier AVerMedia pick if 4K30 recording with 4K60 HDR passthrough covers your needs.
Elgato Game Capture 4K60 Pro MK.2
7 / 10 Expert Rating
Still a genuinely strong 4K60 HDR10 card if found discounted, though the 4K X and 4K Pro have since taken its place for good reasons.
