AVerMedia C875 vs Elgato hd60 Pro

[falav]

Not sure where to write if... but if someone could help me with capture card...
Capture card is need only for streaming from ps4, to use all feature of obs... soo difference betwen this 2 cards is about 50 euro so Avermedia ~154 euro and elgato ~194 euro.. and to get elgato I need to wait 2 weeks. So for new streamer, as I am.. should i get max card, or would be enought to go with avermedia c875, to stream from ps4? (I use usb mic with good hardware sound card) so sound go directly from pc , not from capture card!

Both are external capture cards and both have their fair share of rave as well as criticism from the community. The Elgato apparently has had audio support issues while Avermedia's seem to suffer the same with firmware updates - essentially since they capture resolutions aren't better at 1080p. The community has used both for their gaming sessions off the PS4.

You may want to brush up on your full systems specs since both cards connectivity aren't the same. Essentially the audio is pass through on the Elgato HD60 Pro via HDMI while the Avermedia C875 is with analog audio output while one os internal and the other is an external capture card.

It's also advised to have a somewhat high end system to off load your gaming capture duties. If a high end system, I'd suggest going with the Elgato and if you'd like to capture other console sessions, then the external card could be the route to go.
