Verdict

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.

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.
