  • To connect your PS4 controller to your PC. You'll need to turn on the controller and have it availably for bluetooth syncing. Then you'll need to go into the settings of your PC.
    In this video, I outline the steps of how to connect your PS4 controller to your PC in a few simple steps.
    On your PS4 controller, you'll need to hold your PS button and the share button down for a few seconds, until your controller starts flashing white. Then your controller is ready to be synced to your PC via bluetooth. The next step is going into your settings, clicking on your devices and then clicking on add bluetooth devices.
    In that menu you should be able to see your PS4 controller and click on it to sync it to the PC.
    After the controller is wirelessly connected to your PC. You need to make sure that the settings in any of your games enable your PS4 controller to be used. In Steam, I had to go to the settings to enable PS4 configuration.
    Now you've connected your wireless PS4 controller to your PC. If there are easier steps, please drop them in the comments below.

If thats the case you gonna have to either play wired with a cable or buy an usb or a motherboard that got bluetooth. It may seems weird that you don't know if you got bluetooth but I think it's quite easy to forget when you buy a computer.
