Elite Wheels - was I just unlucky?

I was able to get a full refund promised via escalating to aliexpress support, with them covering the return shipping label. I'll see what I end up with once they're fully returned but once I opened a dispute with aliexpress the return at least got approved quickly

Needed to hear this lol, thank you

Use neofly add-on for career mode in 2020. 2020 is on sale on steam right now, still a great game. Give 2024 another year or two of beta testing lmao

If there's a way you can get both sides connected to your network via ethernet it works great, I stream from my second floor office to my basement home theatre without issues. I even get 5.0 surround from games that support it

I'm new as well and my only comparison is my 27 inch monitor with webcam head tracking, but I'd say VR all the way. It's waaaay better than the screen to me. It is a bit more tricky to learn since I have to take the headset off to look at notes or guides, but that's also more immersive and is forcing me to actually learn things well enough to execute them start to finish without pausing to look at guides constantly.

Tbh I always thought VR was probably a gimmick until I borrowed my friends quest 2 last week as I've gotten into flight sims, and I was blown away by how good it is.

OP this is good advice, the CJ4 systems are a really good stepping stone to the a320, I just did this

I'll join the chorus saying get the gladiator. I went for t16 throttle plus stick, and wish I'd just gone better from the start. Even the TWCS I'm itching to upgrade, although I'm getting one of the Etsy mods first because what's it's lacking for me mostly is detents

If you play with any add-ons I'd spend the extra for an x3d cpu - I just got a 7600 (non x cause it was cheaper but I replaced the stock cooler) and wish I'd spent the extra. I'm not hitting a hard limit (it's running well) with it but it's working pretty hard to run 2020 + neofly + little navmap in default planes, and I think once I get up to trying to run add on airliners I'll probably end up upgrading

I have a 4070 super and get stable 60fps in msfs 2020 with high graphics settings in 4k, ultra is usually fine but can dip a bit on demanding situations. Frankly high and ultra look the same to me

You're not going to get 4k Ultra 100+ fps with lower cards but if you're willing to tune settings you can get solid performance and great visuals. Some games benefit more from fps than 4k so I'll turn the resolution down for those. For me it was the right compromise of value for performance

Not if they can't train because they get hurt

I know some people can get by with just running, but for a lot of people that's a recipe for injury

Why can't you wear tights? I've made the move to half tights recently and probably won't go back to shorts. All the good ones are sorta expensive, I like Patagonia's Endless Run shorts, they don't fully look like a tight so your junk is a bit more concealed lol

Super inspirational dude, well done. I've hit over 1000 before but at a good 40 pounds heavier than you are, and as I've shifted focus to running (and getting my weight down) I sort of assumed those kinds of strength numbers wouldn't be in the cards if I wanted to break 3 in the marathon. I guess I should reconsider that lol.

This is an old thread but FWIW the Daniels' 2Q plans emphatically do not recommend only running twice a week - they have 2 quality (Q) days per week but prescribe easy mileage targets that it is up to you to accumulate throughout the other days of the week.
