ASTRO Gaming C40 TR PS4 Controller, Fully Customisable Professional Wireless Controller for the Elite Gamer, Compatible with PlayStation 4 & PC, Black

Product Information

You’ll also see neat red switches, which can be used to adjust the actuation point of the pad’s triggers – like the ones seen on the Razer Wolverine and Raiju Ultimate. I just bought a Nacon Revolution, which is listed but it shows up as an Xbox One controller in Steam. All certified refurbished products come complete with all the required cables, accessories, and manuals like all new products. On the rear you’ll find trigger stops, enabling either full-analog trigger pulls (for racing games, etc.

ASTRO Gaming

I’ve been PCMag’s home entertainment expert for over 10 years, covering both TVs and everything you might want to connect to them. I stronglyprefer the Xbox’s stick arrangement, and I’m sure Sony’s DualShock 4 devotees feel the same in reverse.This meant it would work for gaming, but the configuration software still wouldn’t recognise it, removing one of the key reasons you’d want it. Sekiro requires a fairly deep trigger pull to use your grappling hook, and this resulted in a few deaths by falling because I set the trigger stops to limit the distance of the trigger pulls. And while it’s probably easiest to do any remapping within Astro’s software, there’s also a button on the rear that allows for on-the-fly changes. Since the triggers provide variable input like the analog sticks, different games activate their functions at different pull distances. These options are standard, but what makes them stand above their Razer competition, is the use of a screw, not magnetic swap out mechanism.

Controller Firmware Update Guide

PC gaming allows you to play with a controller or keyboard, and the C40 TR allows you to customize the controller to exactly your preferences. I ahad updated the firmware of the c40 tr before I found out that steam reads this controller as an xbox controller. The C40 comes with two concave and two convex stick caps on short stems, and one concave and convex cap each with slightly longer stems. A small remapping button between them lets you manually assign them inputs, if you don't want to use the Astro software to customize everything.

It has plenty of features now standard with boutique modded and high-end controllers, like additional, remappable controls and a selection of analog sticks to use.
