TVs aren't made for recording. But the best type of TV is a CRT (if you're playing on the original N64). The CRT I'd prefer is a "Sony Trinitron". They're the biggest and the best of CRTs.

Today's standard TVs are more for HDMI cables. And I remember a few years ago I could barely have my VCR cooperate with my TV in my bedroom. So with any device that only uses AV cables, use a CRT. Today's TVs have what is called "Input lag". Which means there is a delay in your gaming inputs, so definetly don't use a HDMI TV.

Your capture card should hopefully not effect your image on the TV. With my old Elgato I couldn't see my NES image. It was frozen, but if you do have a problem with your Elgato, get GV-USB2. Getting AmaRec is your choice, I can't use it since it's the reason why my audio doesn't work ( :( ). And it blue-screened my computer several times. If you do get AmaRec, and your computer does blue-screen, then don't use it. Deinterlacing can be switched to retro by right-clicking on your cap card scene in OBS (I don't know about XSplit), clicking on "Deinterlacing", and clicking on "retro".

^ A little out of context, but hopefully you won't have any more troubles. Happy gaming!
also input lag is a big factor for retro consoles on modern tvs but with N64 games using the original console i experienced no il at all
CRTs are fairly tough when it comes to TVs, if there's no noticeable damage or any rattling coming from the inside, it might just work.
