Budget Recommendations for a Game Controller for a PC

Looking for budget game controller for Windows. Something that I can use for FIFA/EA FC.

Always played these on the Playstation but looking at something for the PC for very occasional and casual gameplay
 
I'd suggest taking a look at the Evofox Elite X (Wired): https://www.amazon.in/EvoFox-Gamepad-Vibration-Translucent-Controller/dp/B0CJC5XDZC

Comes with a detachable cable and analog triggers (comes in handy when playing racing games). Build is decent and would suggest to stay away from the wireless variant because of its unreliability.

Also, if you are up for used ones, then you can grab the Dualshock 4 for around 2.6K INR: https://gameloot.in/shop/official-s...ouflage-v2-wireless-controller-ps4-pre-owned/ (would work like any other Bluetooth controller).
 
I would recommend just getting the Redgear wired controller. These things may feel a bit cheap, but they last, and are extremely abuse-friendly. I have one which is 7 years old, and has been dropped/raged against multiple times, and works without a sweat. For the price, it's a no-brainer.

+1 for that. I had the wireless one, and it lasted 7 years before joystick drift became too much of an issue. I did open it up, and also switched the joysticks. That was okay for some time, but then both of them started to have drift. Couldn't find anything else to replace them with, so just gave them away to some football players in our dorm haha

After that, I currently have Cosmic Byte Ares and it works great! It's only been a year, though, so maybe too early to say anything?
One thing to note is that the market has pretty much gone to shit. Most cheaper controllers these days don't have analogue trigger buttons, and that SUCKS for anything non-FPS. I just hate them. I specifically chose the CB Ares since everything else in that price range had on-off trigger buttons.
 
Guys, anything that is compatible with MacOS under 2k? I am not sure, I wanted to get a wired one from Ant Esports but they didn't mention MacOS on their compatibility list. I don't see why it doesn't have to work if it's wired?
