[Yahya Hussain]

In the title. Just bought a o3ds with firmware 5.x and im looking to get cfw but before that I need some help on what SD card size and type I should get before buying so I can install the CIAs I want to play. Tried googling but no luck. Can anyone advise me?

any type is fine and for the size it depends on how much games you want to install

64GB Sandisk Extreme UHS (3) any faster won't make a difference and a larger size will lead to issues since the max is 99,999 block in Sysnand.

ok im looking for enough space for around 10 games so what memory space would you suggest also what brand would be the cheapest that works well?

Oh then a 32GB Sandisk Ultra card should work fine

Just use the link I gave it's not worth the risk when you can get a real card from the link I posted for a few dollars more.

thanks for the amazon link the problem is it says it might come after christmas meaning ill have to wait a long time until it comes.

Take a look around in stores near you. They can get quite cheap sometimes. (Especially on sales)

Get one in a real physical shop. Then if you have problems with it you can take it back.

If you buy off ebay, 90% of the time it is going to be fake and give you heaps of problems, then you'll have to go through the annoyance of filing a dispute/sending it back, waiting weeks to get a new one, then that new one might be fake too - why go through all that just to save a few dollars or pounds? Better to spend a little more and get things working right NOW.
