Haha! ^


This is going to be awesome, and finally someone who builds a nice spec PC and doesn't buy some random horrible component - they're all top notch!

Eagerly await more pics, I'd love to get a steering wheel + seat like this, but have no room :(.


Will the single 780 be enough for 3 monitors? Not sure what sim you are using.

Iracing.

ive got the graphics set to full and capped at 100fps no probs. from what I've been reading the single card will be fine

Should be. A GTX 690 runs F1 2013 in 5760x1200 absolutely fine :)

Rig with 3 monitor stand ( plus wee discount ) was £590.

T500rs was £400 bought couple of years back. Got a new custom wheel to replace the standard one.

Very nice, puts my Punto seat nailed to a kitchen unit with Fanatec bits to shame.
 
That's pretty smart. Perhaps not the smartest placement for the PC though? Drawing in warm air from over a radiator will surely elevate case temps?

He could just wind down the window, but he may have changed it for some perspex.

On a serious note, looks awesome. Radiator shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Yeah I'm sure it'll be fine, but personally I'd have the PC on the other side. Way more practical also.

Its there for space really. A0 chart board in the room aswell as a cross trainer. I can reach the power button from the seat, and the mouse and keyboard are wireless. Radiator is switched off so no issues with warm air.

Got a butt kicker 2 from ebay which I fitted today, defo adds somit different

Love a good sim rig. First thing I'll be doing when I own a man cave.

Looks nice and everything, and I'm sure it's epic fun... But I just couldn't sit there playing on it and have my girlfriend walk in seeing me like that.

The wife talked me into going for it, means she gets peace. Also she uses it

He's doing it with a playstation, so no way to export dial information. Funnily enough I have the software on my laptop to export dial information to real dials.

i use the ihud app for iracing...


that guy was married, maybe he has a creative way of trying to introduce his missus to dogging.
 
  MY10 R35 GTR
Got that app aswell, just no linked it up with new rig.

What's that dial he keeps messing with in video above?

Great set up too Jason

I'm guessing to keep the cockpit illuminated to the same level as it would be ingame, but you're right, I see little point in having the lights on.

That's running LFS. :)

Tbh I'd just cut a donor car in half. Easier, cheaper and more realistic when done with a full PC rig running dials etc.
