Solid hardware, amazing performance, okay software
What can I say? It just works! I've used this card on two different Ryzen systems, including the new 3950X CPU and it hasn't put a foot wrong. Some people complain about firmware update issues but I've messed around with a couple and haven't had a single issue. There's two programs you need to install in addition to the firmware update. Their site can be confusing but make sure you download and install the drivers first. Then you can download the latest firmware and RECentral software which is included for capturing 4k HDR footage. RECentral also supports streaming but I primarily use Streamlabs OBS (SLOBS) and it's been perfect (much better than the USB version (GC553) which is plagued with issues on the Ryzen platform). Avermedia says it has RGB lighting but the software is so bad you basically get to choose a couple cloud/rainbow patterns or solid blue. You really do not get to customize the lighting at all which is a shame because technically you could. This perfectly sums up AverMedia. They usually make great hardware that's only limited by their software. Because OBS/Streamlabs is much better software, you still get amazing hardware here. Anyway, if you want an alternative to Elgato which has had a lot of software issues lately, this is a great alternative. Not one hiccup since purchasing it.

WAY better than the Elgato 4K60 Pro Mk.2
After installing the driver/software (AVerMedia RECentral 4) and updating it this thing worked like a charm. It allowed for maximum resolution and frame rate pass through on all of the newest systems ( XSX, PS5, and NS) and maintained an output of 1440p 60fps even when switching between consoles, which is great for consistency when making/editing videos. Works very well with OBS and had almost no issues getting it up and running. I could even reset my PC and consoles and it maintained all the proper settings. This is in SHARP contrast to the Elgato 4K60 pro mk. 2 (which is what I tried first). That awful device (and buggy software) kept restricting my Xbox to 1080p60fps and would often just fail to detect any of my consoles inputs. To make matters worse, once I got the software working / streaming through OBS at the desired settings, it would instantly reset to its buggy defaults /low res and frame rate if I ever needed to reset the PC / shut down. I have no idea how the Elgato has more/better reviews than this device when this device is clearly superior and more functional.
