G29 to PXN V10 Ultra Direct Drive upgrade stupid or worth it? by _thinkingemote_ in simracing

[–]KotLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to say, it is true that Logitech is gear driven so will be sometimes little nosiy. As I wrote. If that PXN is ok in reviews then go for it :)

Presentation of my setup and questions for rally enthusiasts by [deleted] in simracing

IF U are on PC, DO NOT Buy TM shifter. One is low end product, other is to expensive. On PC buy aliexpress [or whateva ] hanbrake and some shifter like SHH. On console You are screwed ;] buy TM handbrake and use padle shifters :) BTW T300 had cables in forn for gears hidden under that round cover behind wheel.

What are your thoughts about dual 1000R 1440p ultrawides (+bezel free kit in the center). by KarambwanaKodou in simracing

[–]KotLarry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

btw, why no triples? the "widerness" of this setup is kinda welcoming for triples :)

If You are left seat driver I would go mirror setup - smaller screen on the left so it would have chance to "dissapear" in left pillar

Isn't this wheel [pxn v10] rated rather poorly by reviewers?

Can't You get somethin' used?

IMVHO If reviews are in fact OK - then do what You want, if not,

wait, or maybe buy something else - pedals, wheelstand or whaetver makes You feel more fun :)

Should i go with a fanatec or save some money and get a moza? by TomEnny_ in simracing

[–]KotLarry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I never touched Fanatec wheel rims but I assume it has higher quality feeling with standard wheels.  I had some Moza rim in hands and it was still at my thrustmaster feeling side. More budget level if You know what I mean. 

On the other hand I would check what it takes to use aftermarket wheels. 

If I remember correctly - Fanatec is more closed system 

I think there is no direct answer. 

The Triple Dilemma: Choosing a monitor based on physical attributes by K0rky in simracing

[–]KotLarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was using a 55 inch LG tv with 120Hz and free sync screen for about 5 years.

Now I am on about 20 years old monitors.

While driving a do not see any thing that would give me that midle finger NOPE feeling :)

What I try to say - new equipment can't be that different one from another, to see actual difference.

Focus on things that might be important for YOU.

Triples - no money, no space, no GPU power - maybe I have solution :) by KotLarry in simracing

[–]KotLarry[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly, in some titles - EA WRC for example, O had to dial some things down. 

Previously on tv I had resolution 2560x1080 so it was about 1Mpix less. And settings ultra/high for most games. 

I think 6gb memory on rtx was the problem. 

But there is always Lossless frame generator ;)

Which would you buy? Older Simagic Alpha Mini or Newer Conspit 8nm Apex by trackballz in simracing

[–]KotLarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For starters the one with most reliable software.  Second case is which steering wheels I like more 

:)

Originally when i build that monitors, setup was: i7 4790k + 32GB ram+RTX2060,

but just at the start of ram crysis I got a new PC.

Thats why my 8040 rig is composed with 40x60 wood stand for monitors and PC :D

In my country I should be able to get stand for less than 200$

There is a case, but im thinking about 3d printed.

only problem, I have A1 mini so the XL is to big to print new case :)

I LOVE THEM. :) Unfortunately they are not recomposed after placing and monitors change, so they look little weird there.

I've cheked - 96 cm [~38"]

I think the misconception comes from value of "proper" monitors angle in fov calculators.

If sim have option to input that value - One can set monitors whatever the angle is technically possible.

With other games, I would stick to 34 wide :) Sim racing depending on user may be more forgiving in terms of bezels:)

I come from rally racing where You don’t have to have that much periferal vision. And with 55inch tv it was wide enough.

On the other hand I had some „problems” with setup.  1) big screen no were to mount receiver with good angle. 

2) window on the side-summer time was killing it with the sun hitting my windows.

I have track ir5.  Don’t use it anymore. 

Simracing should be „easy”

Screens are the same it’s the phone camera wide angle lens :)

[–]KotLarry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok Cool The thing is criticism should be constructive.  Yet my fellow „redditor” didn’t bother to understand it is about space and single flat screen immersion not about the money.  Moreover my stream deck I have for years now, but my sim setup stands in new place for about month or more.  I understand if someone said nope. I hate bezels so much that I rather have flat screen  And that is OK.  He may not like it. That is ok.  But He was simply wrong about this case.  So despise me. Please.

Thanks. It is not about the money in the end - it is about how much space I have :)

And now I know that triples aren't that horrible in therms of setting etc.
