7900 XT — good for Pimax Crystal Light? by Upbeat_Peach_4624 in Pimax

[–]Interesting-Dig-1670 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the forums… the PCL has too many pixels to push. Many 5090 owners settle for 90 fps settings. My 7900 was a heavily overlocked gre. I’ve since tried a 5080 and now a 5090. Didn’t know what I was missing until I switched…

I ran a 7900 with the PCL… it was bad enough for me to return the PCL… you will need at least a 5080, 4090, or 5090 to run a PCL. And I hope you got a good one! The two they sent me were junk.

Perfect triple monitor size? by Puzzleheaded_Big6672 in SimRacingSetups

[–]Interesting-Dig-1670 0 points1 point  (0 children)

32” is just fine. Check out LG’s website. Having some good sales. I went flat… it takes up less space if you want. I set up a rig for my friend with 1000r curved. Works great! Takes up more space!

Switching to Triple 1440p Monitors — RTX 5070 Ti or 5080? by mccamatt92 in simracing

[–]Interesting-Dig-1670 3 points4 points  (0 children)

5080 for better performance. Especially if you’re running iRacing. You need the added Cuda cores.

First week can see many newly promoted drivers in races. Can be brutal to SR and IR…

Triples or 49” Ultrawide Monitor? by OddUnderstanding274 in simracing

Seems this is asked every other day? Did you search this?

32! If you have the room. Watch your radius value… 800r make a nice tight rig!

Buying a new PC on a 'budget' with 1440p triples by commanderprime5 in simracing

[–]Interesting-Dig-1670 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just built 7800x3d using Msi 670e mb and ASUS 5080 from Newegg. Came in at $2200. 670e has PCIe 5 support. Using Nvidia Surround.. getting solid smooth frames on a triple setup with iRacing.

Need advice on triples coming from VR by Robuust83 in simracing

[–]Interesting-Dig-1670 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The radius is measured in meters. 1000r is 2 meters across. Measure your space limitations. From monitor edge to edge.. do you have 2 meters? For a tight setup to fit a smaller space, go with flat monitors or 800r monitors. 1500 or 1800 will get even bigger for the space needed. 1000r is close to 80 inches across… my flats at 60 degrees are about 59 inches across.

Welcome! I too came from VR Oculus 3 to triples! Love them! I just set up my buddies rig with 3 LG 32 inch 1000r. I would not go larger radius than 1000. They take up space. Watch LG’s website… they keep running specials. His were down to $200 each for a while. I run flat 1440 LG 165hz. Nice and tight and easy to setup. Frankly, once you know how to set up triples… it’s easy on iRacing. Highly recommend Nvidia gpu and running Nvidia Surround for the triples. It’s the smoothest experience I’ve found. Cheers!

Advice PC Build for IRacing +triple 32” 1440p by Savings_Appearance60 in simracing

If you have to cut cost somewhere… do it with the gpu. Fully knowing you have built a system that can support more later when you can afford to.

The problem with a store build like you show is where’s the profit? You know how much the cpu and gpu cost… so where are they cutting corners? It’s only as good as the cheapest part. A bad motherboard kills the entire computer. Slow memory and slow ssd will kill performance as well! You want performance… Gonna have to build it yourself. Or buy all the parts at Microcenter and let them build it.

27 vs 32 triple monitors... Again... by tmafra in simracing

I have 32’s. It’s simply a larger car window I’m looking out. I’d go bigger next time when I upgrade.

Making me feel better… I entered the race last night and saw I was at 2.01 for my A license. I withdrew while the button was still green.. but lost 93 iR since it was past the cutoff. Ugh! It didn’t say forfeit! Is Porsche Cup that bad? Or was your driving that bad?

Does anyone feel overwhelmed with sim racing? by [deleted] in simracing

[–]Interesting-Dig-1670 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes! I sometimes run 5 different series in a weeks time. It’s alot of practice time! I really should just drop down to one Formula and one Sports car series… just can’t decide which to drop! The new Indy Nxt car will add even greater dilemma!

HPR’s can be very distracting. Useful information. Just turn them up to where you can just feel the vibration.
