Atomic DMA questions and hardware needed.

05/09/2024 21:06 CFear#1
So I plan on buying the Captain DMA 3 Generation Lite(Squirrel Upgrade) with the Customized Firmware option for the 35T card, from the CaptainDMA website.

I know Atomic doesn't support KM box currently and they have Chams available without needing a Fuzer I believe.(Don't need ESP if I have Chams right).

I checked my 2nd PC(Laptop) and it has 2 USB 3.0 slots and supports AVX2.

I guess my only question is, The DMA Card will get installed into my Gaming computer. Then I'll Run 2 HDMI cords from the DMA card. 1 To my Gaming PC and the other to my Laptop. Since the DMA card comes with Customized Firmware All I'll need to do is Buy Atomic DMA subscription and then I'll be good to go correct?

Sorry about the questions been really trying to learn DMA for the last few days

Well there would only be 1 HDMI cable, but you got the gist of it. However captains fw was detected in the latest ban wave. So I'd probably look for a different provider if I was you.

Realistically you would have to buy the firmware separate from the card, the card itself is irrelevant. Regarding FW provider you will have to take a look around, I don't feel comfortable vouching for anyone atm.

Shockazulu CFW seem to be the GOAT atm, personally when I bought my captain DMA I bought it with CFW 1:1 too and I'm still good for 4 months.

Shock's firmware was hit.

Wasn't it Atomic's FW that was hit?

Atomic never sold FW, shock sold firmware in atomic's discord.
