My device doesn’t support Bluetooth, so I’m deciding between an internal chip or a USB connection. The BT-400 is well-known, but I’m not sure if it’s the best fit. I currently have both wired and Wi-Fi options, with the Wi-Fi coming from an older USB adapter. The budget isn’t a huge concern, though I think I’d stay under $40.

USB Bluetooth gadgets should cost under $10, yet a PCI-e wireless with Blueooth card offers better value for gaming on Wi-Fi.

Hey! Most of my gaming is done wired, but it's a bit choppy right now with around 50ms. I'm fine with that. I think the dongle should work just fine. Thanks!

Other Chinese options work well too. These links suggest reliable alternatives: one offers a Bluetooth receiver with USB transfer, and another provides a plug-and-play adapter for Raspberry Pi. Both are solid choices.
