DMA for beginners: what you need and what it costs

A DMA setup uses two PCs: your gaming PC runs the game and a second PC runs the DMA software. This page explains the three ways to link them, what each one costs, and how to get playing, in plain words.

Step 1: pick how your two PCs connect

I already have a DMA card

Firmware

$79 one-time

Your card needs firmware made for the games you play. Basic firmware covers Call of Duty, Rainbow Six and Battlefield 6.

See firmware

I don't have a card

XMA

from $69 / month

Your motherboard does the job of the card, so there is nothing to buy or plug in. Usually running about 24 hours after we approve your PC.

I want to link my two PCs by network

RDMA

from $10 / day

No DMA card. The two PCs talk over a network link, with our step-by-step setup guide. $79 a month.

Beginner questions

What is DMA in gaming?

DMA (direct memory access) setups use two PCs. Your gaming PC runs the game, and a second PC runs the DMA software and reads the game data. The two PCs are linked by a DMA card, by XMA (your motherboard) or by RDMA (a network link).

Do I need two PCs?

Yes. Every DMA setup uses a second PC that runs the software. It does not need to be a gaming PC; open a Discord ticket and we tell you if yours is enough.

What is the cheapest way to start?

If you already have a DMA card, firmware starts at $79 one-time. Without a card, RDMA starts at $10 a day and XMA at $69 a month. Then add a license for your game; Call of Duty starts at $10.00.

What is the difference between a DMA card, XMA and RDMA?

A DMA card goes in your gaming PC and needs firmware (card from $119, firmware from $79). XMA does the same job with your motherboard, so there is no card to buy (from $69 a month). RDMA links the two PCs over the network (from $79 a month).

Can I use DMA on PS5 or Xbox?

No, DMA is PC only. For console players we sell Spectra 2PC AI, which runs on a second PC and works from your capture card feed (from $15.00). You also need a Titan Two or Xim Matrix and a Makcu.

What is a game license?

The DMA software for your game. You buy it as a key on our website, for a day, a week, a month or longer. Some keys, like Rie DMA All in one, cover 30+ games.

How do I pay and get my key?

Game licenses and RDMA: card (Apple Pay and Google Pay too) or crypto on the website, or PayPal in a Discord ticket. Firmware: crypto on the website, or other options in a ticket. Hardware: send an order request on the website and pay in a ticket. XMA: apply in a ticket. License keys arrive by email after payment, instantly when they are in stock.

Can I get a refund?

Not once a key has been activated. That is why we check your PC in a Discord ticket before you pay.
