So, I have my own rig that I play games on with an r9 290. It works pretty well, and for a long time I was using an xbox 360 controller on it since I find I like using a controller over a mouse and keyboard setup (console pleb at heart, I know.) The PC is a living room pc so I opted for a wireless reciever and a wireless xbox 360 controller. But eventually I got tired of the 360 controller and wanted to upgrade. I tried out a ps4 controller via bluetooth for a little while but was always getting bad latency issues, so I replaced my crappy bluetooth USB dongle with a better reviewed one. This did not help, so I figured the issue was using controller input was making my latency worse, so instead I decided to buy an xbox one controller and connect that via bluetooth. I tried that out for a while and at first it worked great, but now I am having similar issues, either latency, or the controller just disconnects. So here's my question: is this the fault of my bluetooth adapter? If so, what is the most cost effective and elegant way to get bluetooth on a custom built PC? Because as things stand now, my bluetooth in my macbook pro is wayyyyyy better than any kind of bluetooth I have ever tried with my custom gaming PC.
