Private Firmware VGK + EAC

Because it is a different build for a different anti-cheat. Private is made for Vanguard, which only works on Intel, and it gets two months of warranty against one. Whether the build differs beyond that is TBD. If your game is on EAC, buy Advanced.

No. Private is made for Intel CPUs in general, not your exact model. It needs an 11th gen or newer.

Advanced, the Premium tiers and MiTM run on AMD and Intel, on boards from 2020 or newer. For Vanguard, MiTM and Private's VGK only and VGK + EAC need Intel. On AMD, Vanguard runs on AMD VGK, a monthly key, and on RDMA, which needs no DMA card. If your game is on EAC, Advanced, the Premium tiers and Private VGK + EAC run on AMD.

Other people run firmware that copies the same device as yours. Your serials are still your own, and someone else's ban isn't your ban. The fewer people on a device, the fewer bans get tied to it, which is why the builds with fewer people cost more. What shared firmware means goes in depth.

Yes, as long as it is made for your game's anti-cheat. Check that first, because a more expensive build doesn't always cover more: Private VGK only costs more than Advanced but swaps EAC for Vanguard. After that, a higher tier has better emulation and more time spent on it. It costs more, so the people on it are mostly legit players who won't get the device flagged by raging. The higher you go, the more complex the device, the longer the warranty and the more priority you get on support and new devices. Premium T3 is for people who are serious about competitive play. Advanced is more than enough for most people, and as of September 2026 no device has more than 30 people on it. T1 vs T2 vs T3 helps you pick.

It is a plain PCIe x1 card, so it fits any board with a free x1, x4, x8 or x16 slot. Your Main PC shows you how to check your slots before you buy. Already ordered and it isn't working? Open a ticket in the Discord and we sort it out with you. If the card really is faulty, the three months of warranty cover it.

Advanced, Premium and Private: your build is made for one card's DNA ID, so it doesn't move to another card. If you are still in warranty, we can make a build for the new card at a small extra cost, and the old build is deleted. Ask in a ticket. Out of warranty it is a new purchase. Check the card works before you buy firmware for it.

Yes, in or out of warranty. Moving up a Premium tier needs a slot open in that tier. While you are in warranty, 65% of what you paid comes off the build you move to. After your warranty ends, 40% comes off instead, but only if your build was blocked or detected. Advanced to Private VGK only inside warranty: 65% of $200 is $130 off, so you pay $120. If you already know you want a higher build, just buy it now. An upgrade is a whole new build on its own device, so you can't just pay the difference between the two prices.

Advanced, Premium and Private: yes, it's yours. If it gets blocked in one game, it can still work in games with lighter anti-cheats.

The firmware itself is lifetime. Activation keys are set to 90 days only because of a limit on our key server, and that will get fixed eventually. The 90 days count from when we activate your key, and the activator app shows how long is left. When it gets close to running out, open a ticket and we reset the same key back to 90 days for free. When a key runs out, you can no longer unlock the card to read or write memory after you restart your main PC.

Advanced, Premium and Private: we always fix or replace first. If it won't run on your PC, open a ticket in our Discord and we work on it with you, and replace it if we need to. A refund is only given in one case: the firmware flashes fine but never shows in Device Manager on your main PC, we confirm it's a firmware compatibility fault, and we still can't get it working after fixing or replacing it. Changing your mind doesn't count, because crypto payments are final and your build is made for your card.

Refunds in our terms has the exact wording.

Advanced, Premium and Private: once we confirm and announce it, everyone on the device is told on the site and by email. In warranty, press Get my new firmware in the email or on your order page, and you flash the new file, about ten minutes. You don't need a ticket for it. A ban on its own isn't a claim. Your warranty starts the day your firmware is delivered, so you're covered from day one. Usually there is no wait, and you wait a week at most for a new device. If a new device isn't possible, we move you to another firmware, for example Premium T1. You can also take a device one tier down straight away (moving back up later costs extra). Out of warranty, 40% of what you paid comes off your next order.

It starts on the day your build is delivered.

• Private: 2 months

A new device if we confirm and announce that your device is blocked or detected (for MiTM, once we confirm it, since every MiTM device is unique), or a replacement if the firmware can't be made to work with your board. A ban on its own isn't a warranty claim.

Yes, for $100 a month. Ask in a ticket in our Discord before your warranty ends, because we can't extend one after it has run out. Devices cost a lot to run, so it is usually better value to upgrade to a new build when a new device comes out, which also starts a fresh warranty. There's no lifetime warranty, since there's no fair price for keeping a device running forever.

Advanced, Premium and Private: it's digital, usually about 2 hours after you pay and 24 hours at most. We need your card's DNA ID, its model and an msinfo32 report. You upload them on your order page after you pay.
