About

AVerMedia's Thunderbolt 3 flagship — the only external capture card here that captures true 2160p60 HDR without downscaling, since Thunderbolt's 40Gbps bandwidth removes the USB 3.0 bottleneck that forces every other card to compress to 1080p.

Ports: 1× HDMI (entrada), 1× HDMI (salida, passthrough, hasta 2160p60 HDR / 1440p144 / 1080p240) and 1× Thunderbolt 3 (conexión al host, requiere puerto Thunderbolt real, no compatible con USB estándar)

Confirmed with

  • PS5

    A documented EDID handshake issue forces the passthrough resolution to drop from 4K down to 1080p when connected to PS5.

  • Xbox Series X|S

    Captured smooth 4K60 HDR footage from Xbox Series X in a demonstration, operating as an external Thunderbolt capture card.

  • Notebook (generic)

    Requires a laptop with an actual Thunderbolt 3 or 4 port — a physically identical USB-C port without Thunderbolt will not work.
