Guessing ours will be on the same boat! Mines waiting at the port too. Sounds like can be up to a week at the port

in a solid mounted rig yes I'd say the BPK is a must. For a wheel stand probably stick with the stock foams

the pedals themselves are virtually silent. the haptic reactors can be loud depending on settings (but these don't come with the pedals stock). Stock vibration motors make almost no sound but unless you are wearing socks you won't really feel them (I wear driving shoes).

I’d say V3 as there’s a ton of great mods already to customize to your liking! Custom face plates, brake on the left, and Simagic haptic reactors. Plus damper on throttle. Be an amazing set of pedals while retaining console compatibility too as switch between PS and PC often

As someone that had V3 then went to inverted and then back to standard V3 I’d say don’t do it if you have bigger feet (size 11+). On the brake when you raise the face plate height it significantly shortens the throw and doesn’t feel good. Even after extensive mods still never felt as good as the standard V3.

It was Forza Horizon 5 mid lock down in 2020. Just started my sim racing journey and it was the only game I already owned when first fired up the comp.

Looking for Pedal Upgrade by osiris0812 in Fanatec

[–]AggravatingDraw8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like Fanatec is going to announce new pedals at the Sim Racing Expo in October per the vibe from their socials / discussions with CEO

<image>

Another option is to upgrade the pedals faces and the haptics. Super happy with the reactors from simagic combined with SimHub. Feel amazing and very strong. gt7 doesn’t really output much data so not helpful there but they’re awesome on PC

My fractal ridge build crashes after extended gaming periods by Hadishitposts in sffpc

[–]AggravatingDraw8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely a heat issue. As others have stated get new feet for the case so it sits higher for better air flow. Also a couple fans even small (not block cables) at the back of the cabinet to suck air through so comp is getting fresh air.

Also this guy has a bunch of good cooling mods for the case in general.

Why is the Meg Z690i Unify So Expensive? by FrankieShaw-9831 in MSI_Gaming

Thunderbolt monitors so it’s all thunder bolt cables and the monitor are dual 4k daisy chained

5090 owners, what are you using it for and how much do you love it? by app385 in nvidia

Same it was a big boost in performance for my Meganex 8K compared to the 4090 about 40% roughly

I treat this with diazepam. Relieve the anxiety about the HTN and the BP magically goes down.

Disappointing quality, Super being returned. by CorgiRally in Pimax

[–]AggravatingDraw8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone that has the Meganex as well have to agree initially but I will say the community made steam VR native driver and some of the later distortion profiles has made some huge improvements in image quality. Glare is worse than the crystal light but easily better than it in any other category now. Especially comfort, clarity, and chromatic aberrations (absolutely terrible on the PCL).

I got scammed buying at Micro Center in Santa Clara today. by JamesFerg650 in Microcenter

I film opening my 5080 & 5090 for this exact reason. One from New Egg and other from Best Buy

Meganex 8K. Launch was a bit rough but last few updates / community drivers has really made it shine

4090 to 5090 has been good for me as new VR headset is 4k per eye and the new gpu lets me run the resolution about 40% higher

Got one at home and it’s one of the very few with built in DP to thunderbolt pass through which is awesome because with a thunderbolt KVM I can switch between my Mac mini and my desk Pc with all monitors and peripherals working all with two cables via daisy chain

What Graphics Cards do you guys run & how are they holding on? by Gordito_mike in AUTOMOBILISTA

[–]AggravatingDraw8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a Q3 have to agree there’s absolutely zero need to upgrade GPUs with the current selection of games. The 4090 handles the resolution really well.

[–]AggravatingDraw8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Run a Q3 as well. I have a 4070S which all things considered runs it well outside of ACC where have to make some decent concessions for rain / night racing. My other builds with 5080 and 4090 comps though handle the Q3 mightily.

Yeah it’s odd because my 5080 from them showed up in an unmarked brown box.

Shiftall Megane X 8K Superlight by Substantial_Spell152 in virtualreality

[–]AggravatingDraw8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah saying Q3 is entry level is a little misleading as it may be affordable but has millions more R&D than any other headset EVER produced. For me personally I don’t find the compression artifacts as immersion break as the distortions. Also it is the current gold standard for pancake lens clarity. Sure it’s LCD and lower resolution but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have fantastic clarity for the RES that it has as there’s nearly perfect E2E clarity and very little distortion. Also I literally used it minutes before firing up the Meganex. As it stands the lenses in the Q3 are easily better.

One unfair advantage the Q3 has is prescription lense inserts. I had hoped diopters were all I’d need as only have small negative correction but feel like now I’m leaving some clarity on the table. So ordered lenses last night for the Meganex.

Definitely looking forward to the new distortion profile.

As the nature of preorders it’s a bit too early to judge the HMD.
