DMA Buyer's Guide

How to choose the best DMA card? Compare key specs, firmware types (free vs paid), Fuser needs, and setup requirements. Your DMA hardware checklist.

Highly Secure Build

This build with the products below is a buy-once, cry-once approach. High up-front cost - minimal long-term reinvestment (both money and time). The 100T DMA card provides the highest available security, and best performance with no compromise. The DMA PC has the recommended amount of RAM (32GB) by all cheats we offer on DEXAIM DMA. Our firmware is a set-and-forget approach. Buy it, flash it, use it. No hassle. Lastly, the fuser is powerful enough to drive 4K resolution at 60Hz and 2K resolution at 144Hz - all with zero latency.

This build will provide great performance, future-proofing, wide compatibility, and flexibility to adapt to any games available now or in the future.

CaptainDMA now bundles the MAKCU HID with any purchase of a DMA card. Additionally, firmware prices fluctuate. If you have a solid PC/laptop already, you're saving a third of the price.

Affordable Secure Build

Save close to $300 USD by switching to a DICHEN (optional) fuser, dropping to a 75T DMA card, and swapping out the Beelink SER5 for the MINI S13 (notably: 16GB ram difference) - but keep the security. Pair with our custom firmware and you're in a solid position.

Final Takeaway

If you are focused on affordability, drop the fuser from your DMA kit. A fuser is really only needed if you plan to use ESP on the same monitor. Find a cheaper laptop on a local marketplace app to save a few more dollars - just make sure it has at least one 10GB/s USB 3.2 port available.

Both options are a big jump from single-PC cheats. DMA offers unbeatable security in comparison. That said, if security is your biggest focus, choose the Highly Secure build.
