AVerMedia Live Gamer HD 2
6 / 10 Expert Rating
Solid, no-frills 1080p60 capture for buyers who genuinely don't need 4K passthrough.
Hauppauge HD PVR Rocket
6 / 10 Expert Rating
Solid hardware from a genuinely experienced capture brand, let down slightly by software polish next to Elgato and AVerMedia.
