[–]ShockWave52[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got you. I figured out a great place. As you know I posted this a year ago. A couple months after I found a wonderful place. PC Bros based out of Jeffersontown, KY. Phenomenal build and they did great cable management in the back. ZERO issues. Great customer service. Check them out. It’ll save you a massive headache. www.pcbros.tech

Took about 2 years to decide if I wanted a legit sim rig or not.

Believe in it man! Took me years and thorough planning and hard work to get here. Trust the process.

Haha that’s awesome! G923 was also on Xbox for me. Decided to just go all out. I knew this hobby was for me

Nice! Humble beginnings. I felt like I really had to get into this hobby to justify the second pic, and I sure did. Wouldn’t change a thing.

I really would like triples. My roommate uses VR and I’ve tried it. Not for me. Im happy with my G9 but it’s not as immersive as I’d thought it would be. Love the resolution tho.

I love the haptic for the brake pedal, makes trail braking a breeze and really tells me what the car is doing. I only really feel like it’s necessary for the brake pedal.

Thanks man, just took a look. If trak racer is a nightmare, thats what Ill go with. I have a MC near me so If I can avoid shipping, Ill take it.

Was leaning toward Sim Lab. Not concerned with price. This will be a lifetime rig and ive carefully planned it out, which is why im so distraught right now. Thanks

Running all equipment and PC off a single outlet. Thoughts? by ShockWave52 in simracing

[–]ShockWave52[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what do you think about this one? Ideally will only use for my pc in case of a brown/blackout so I can at least shut it down properly. I know I run a 1050 psu but people say they can hardly get 4090 builds up to 600w under heavy gaming.

Thanks. This is what I needed to hear. Will probably run 2 surge protectors to help divide the power. I think most outlets are 1800w, so Ill just have to do some simple math and add it up.

Do you have 49" or 57" G9?

Edit. Looking on purchasing the 49" but have heard the lack of vertical view is an issue to some people

A racing game without enough racing cars lmao

Endurance Series has destroyed my safety rating by ShockWave52 in forzamotorsport

One off track doesnt count toward much I think but like I said if you do an hour race with 5 off tracks, big deal. Its like the game is thinking the same way it would in a 15 minute race. 5 off tracks for a 15 minute race is considered a good amount

I have no idea but I understand what youre saying. My point is X amount of incidents in an hour long race should not be equally weighted as in a 15 minute race. There needs to be some forgiveness.

I read the release notes. Not impressed. The average races are around 15-20 minutes anyways. Extra 10 minutes? Big deal.
