AverMedia’s Live Gamer 4K capture card breaks the 2160p60 HDR barrier

Game-related video is a huge business online, and that is creating significant demand for tools that enable almost anyone to make high-quality content for YouTube, Twitch, Mixer, and more. This space is growing crowded as more companies try to cater to a generation of broadcasters who are all aiming to turn into the next Ninja, but AVerMedia has more experience building capture equipment for video games than most of its competitors, and the company is beginning to use that expertise to attention to its latest product launches: the Live Gamer Ultra and the Live Gamer 4K.

AVerMedia’s Live Gamer product line is a series of well-known and well-regarded capture cards. While companies like Elgato have had a lot of success by providing exactly what most content creators want from this kind of device (which for the last several years was 1080p60 performance), AVerMedia has matched that tech side but has not penetrated with the same level of marketing. But now, the Taiwanese audio-video company is leapfrogging its competition in terms of technology and pricing as it jumps into the bold new world of 2160p60 HDR capture.
