Why consider this model?

  • A narrowly defined earlier option for a Windows setup that has a compatible native Thunderbolt 3 port, clean HDMI 2.0 input and a documented OBS or RECentral workflow. Its standout documented Windows route combines 4K60 HDR capture with 4K60 HDR passthrough, or 1080p60 capture with a 4K60 HDR display path.

Tradeoffs to weigh

  • This is not a USB-C/USB 3.x device: Thunderbolt 3 is required, and AVerMedia warns that some newer TB4/DisplayPort-combo ports or unqualified desktop expansion cards may fail. The product is an earlier generation; exact U.S. manufacturer SKU, seller condition and current package are not established. Mac restrictions are severe, and generic Mac support is not matched.
