Best PCB for pc? (Building hitbox)

I just can’t justify paying 90$ for the brooks UFB. Unless you can convince me that I’d rather play an ASW or SF fighter on the xbox than on steam…I don’t see any reason to have a PCB for anything other than PC. I don’t know how input delay factors into PCBs as I’m new to this stuff so I was hoping you could point me toward the best PCB I could possibly get for PC.

On a side note, is ps4 support necessary for tournaments? If so, I suppose I’d like a recommendation for the best pc/ps4 PCB. I just want to make sure that it will be plug and play for pc, that I don’t have to download x-padder or something. I’ve read the ps4 PCBs require something called “x-input” to use on pc which to my blind assumption sounds like some middle man that would affect input response time.

If you have no problem with soldering i suggest https://www.focusattack.com/brook-ps3-ps4-fight-board-pcba/ . If not there is https://www.focusattack.com/ist-pre-installed-brook-ps3-ps4-pc-fight-board-pcb-kit/ i do suggest the solder less one since it comes with all the cables you will need also some extra ones for hitbox build

If you only intend on using on PC’s, then USB zero delay encoders are the way to go. Else, that IST kit linked above works well. I’ve got them in two of my sticks.

Would using the USB zero delay encoders give me any improvement?
I’ve got the IST kit in the shopping cart, if it allows my arcade controller to compete with the best of them then I’m happy.

Short answer is buy the IST kit (after you read this)
