Get started with DMA: the full setup, step by step

We post blogs for anything that comes to mind and you can learn a lot. If you are new, start with this one, then come back to the links as you put your setup together.

What DMA is

DMA stands for direct memory access. A DMA card is a small card that goes inside the PC you play on, which we call your main PC. It reads what the game has in memory and sends it over a USB cable to a second computer next to it. Your software runs on that second computer and shows you what the card reads.

The point is that nothing runs on the PC you play on. No cheat is installed there and nothing touches the game. That doesn't make you unbannable. Is DMA detectable? explains how people still get caught.

What is a DMA card? goes deeper if you want to know how it works.

What you need

• A main PC.
  The computer you play on. It needs a free PCIe slot and a motherboard from about 2020 or newer. Vanguard (VALORANT) needs an Intel CPU. Your Main PC
• A second computer.
  Any Windows 10 or 11 PC or laptop with at least 4 cores that isn't the one you play on. We don't sell one. The second PC says what to buy.
• A DMA card.
  Ours is the GODLIKE 100T. Why the 100T says why it's the only one we sell.
• Firmware.
  The software that lives on the card and makes it work. Which build you need depends on your game's anti-cheat and your CPU. Choosing your firmware compares them, and T1 vs T2 vs T3 says whether you need a higher tier.
• Software.
  The program on your second computer that you use while you play. We suggest Blurred, and you buy it from them. What it does and which one to get
• An aim device, if you want aim.
  Your mouse plugs into it, and the software moves your mouse through it. MAKCU or FERRUM
• A video fuser, if you want one screen.
  It puts both computers on one monitor. Do I need a video fuser?

What a whole setup costs adds up the whole bill. If you only have one PC, read this first. If you already own a card, see Using our firmware on it.

How our site helps

• Check before you pay.
  Will DMA work for me? checks your PC and game, and Find my firmware asks a few questions and picks a build for you.
• Buy it together.
  The bundle builder puts the card, firmware and extras in one order. The more you add, the more comes off. We only take crypto. Why we only take crypto explains why, and How to pay with crypto shows you how if you've never done it.
• Your order page does the rest.
  You send your card's DNA ID and msinfo32 report from it. Your firmware, your activator key and your warranty all show up there. After you order walks through it.
• A guide for every step.
  Everything on Learn is free, and the checklist below puts them in order.
• People to ask.
  Questions before you buy go on our forum, where the answer helps the next person too. After you order, you get help through a ticket in our Discord. Reviews shows what our customers say.
