    So they also do the trx more expensive seat? Is there a better option? And what’s involved to make it fit?

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    So almost a year on and I'm in the market for the rig when I get back off holiday. Caught in two minds at the moment. TR80 looks better but a bit more expensive, Fixed back GT style seat and integrated monitor stand. About £1019. Problem is, I have a space of 160cm to fit in and can stretch to...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    I got a few screws in but the angle puts the last ones way off as can be seen. So it is fixed solid at the top. It is powered on, not leaking so will that be OK now and just ignore the few missing fins? Not likely to fail? Not sure how I would go about front mounting it. There is no obvious...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Well that didn't go to plan. Nothing leaking. Be alright won't it until I get something that actually fits in the case? Problem is, the rad is fouling a heat sink on the motherboard so I was trying a bit of brute force to get the screw to fit in the hole, moved the other way and went straight...

    flol. I wish, Fanatec gone back to type. Heard nothing since. Going away end of June, once I get back if nothing has been done then I'll raise it again with them and use my compo face to empathise how I feel I don't think I can trust them for future purchases. On a side note after a blast on...

    Company of Heroes 3

    This has been my first title on the new PC. Checking my steam account my last games played were FM12 and C&C Red Alert. This is going to take some serious getting used to over C&C Engineering guy. I've bungled through the first 2 Italian missions, don't really understand the turn based thing...

    The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

    Isn't this just a fad though, once the people born in the 70s, 80s and early 90s are dead then no one will give a s**t about about old Fords. It is only because people who grew up in that era now have some silly amounts of disposable income, will be the same for the 2000+ lot, they'll move on...

    Yeah, I got that bit, brake into the pedal base and pedal base to DD. I assume with a load cell pedal you'd just daisy chain the current brake/clutch to load cell to pedal base to DD? What cable would you use to plug it directly to the PC anyway?

    Load Cell pedal - 139 euro Booster pack - 149 euro So not much between them. Having a look what they have, I reckon.... clutch kit, 39 euros CSL pedal tuning kit - 34 euro If they offer me a Fanatec Beanie hat......

    Well well well. Looks like Fanatec have got their sh!t together. less than 24 hours and a reply. I wonder if the responsible team will just ignore it. What would you accept as a suitable 'gesture of goodwill'? I don't think a discount off next purchase would be fair, cash gift voucher is...

    The new TV thread

    Do you have any issues with your HiSense TV not picking up HDMI? Sometimes I put on the xBox and it just doesn't register and sits at a black screen, need to either switch the xBox off and on or the TV at the wall. Also my arc to sound system is flakey, keeps the connection but drops the...

    Lets see where this gets me, I would like to think a company who have had such bad PR will be doing their upmost to restore their image. I've gone for the following approach: 1) thank them 2) Call them out 3) Ask for something 4) Pretend I'm going to be a loyal customer going forward Perfect...

    This is how it is currently configured. You can see my tape bodge fix in the top left corner to stop the rad sagging. Stuplid I've tried moving the screws that hold the filter from the outside places to inside to match the Rad but they aren't long enough. and you can sort of see it fouling...

    Set it up tonight, After an hour of updating the drivers and having a few panics where it just sat there saying "please wait" until I decided this isn't right so cancelled after a "you don't want to be cancelling this mate" message I finally got it all updated. Then took me 20 minutes to figure...

    It all comes to those who wait. Excited but need to attach it to my desk for the time being, so less excited. Once I confirm all is good I will be in touch for some compensation. Will suggest either the load cell pedal or booster pack would be sufficient and I'll tell the world how great their...

    I did look at the Titan but for the extra £100, Titan £619, Lite £719 with bucket seat and monitor stand the Lite seemed more future proof for whatever I decide. But whilst we are on the subject Just turned up. Not confirmed working yet but 280 days :)

    Anyone who has the GT Omega Prime Lite can they tell me if the seat hangs over the back of the frame? Dimensions give a length of 137cm and I have a current length of around 150cm I want to fit it in. I'm only little at 5'10 so not expecting the seat right back. Also, on the monitor stand is...

    Mobile Phone Contract Thread.

    What does a phone cost nowadays? Think she is rocking like a 7 at the moment so just something she can still update really. Is it worth just going into one of these second hand high street places just for a phone or are they not alot cheaper than new? Apologies, don't really bother with...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Will get a picture tomorrow but I have it mounted like that picture, case->Rad->Fans. I'm starting to think I might have used the screws for the Rad to screw the motherboard down hmmmm. I can clearly remember two lots and I couldn't figure out why so just picked one lot.

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Doesn't say anything about mounting it. Looking at the supplied kit as well there is nothing with 8 screws to match the radiator either. Add to that the radiator is slightly fouling the motherboard heatsink (??) Anyway, long story short, one side fits in a slot and it was just sagging, so...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    I did leave the cables until I had it powered up working. One more question, the screws for the radiator to mount to the top of the case are not long enough and I literally have one holding it in. Are the like standard size little screws and where do I get longer ones? I'd hate to think of the...
