  • VM speed guidance: PS5 ranges from 4ms (-6) to 1ms (-9).
    • ZenLink allows up to 1ms (-9).
    • Bypass method allows up to 2ms (-8).
  • You donโ€™t need a new controller or ZenLink to run scripts; they work at all speeds (even 8ms/125 Hz).
  • Compatibility not guaranteed โ€” check official Cronus Zen list.
  • Use at your own risk.
