# Cheating with DMA Devices ## What is DMA? DMA stands for Direct Memory Access. This is functionality that allows PCIe and other devices to read and write to physical memory without going through the CPU or system OS. ## Why use DMA for Cheating? Unlike what EAC, BE, ESEA, and FACEIT want you to believe. Cheating with a DMA device is far safer than any Kernel Driver cheat and is probably on par with cheating through a VM. It's also a fun challenge ## How Much Does it Cost? You should expect to pay between $300 and $700 USD in order to obtain the hardware. If you are purchasing custom firmware, you can expect to pay between $100 and $300 USD. ## todo more faq i'll eventually add more faq --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
