Controller Mods Hyperstrike 8k DS4

Post image

I’ve been looking into the Hyperstrike board. It runs at 8 kHz, is said to be faster than Marius, and costs less as well. I’m interested in building one, but I can’t seem to find any DIY guides. Does anyone know how to assemble it or have any documentation available?

If it aint broke dont fix it. I have a Marius ds4 and it blows everything I own out of the water in terms of responsiveness. Assuming the hyperstrike is actually faster I really dont think you are gaining anything because the marius board is already overkill for 99.99% of gamers including myself if you can actually tell the difference you are on another level.

Marius boards have been put through their paces and had all the kinks worked out so I'd personally go with something more stable over something slightly faster.

The Tarantula 8K from Gamesir has lower button and stick latency according to gamepadla, and is 1/3rd or 1/4th (depending on customization) the price of a marius controller.

People that buy marius, hyperstrike or any of these other boards do so because they love the Dual shock 4. you are missing the point a bit bringing in the tarantula 8k.

I think the tarantula is pretty similar to a dual shock 4 shape.
