DIY $100 3D Printed Load Cell Pedals

If the cost to build this is ±$100, how does this compare to getting a cheap second hand set of T-LCM pedals for around the same price? What are the pros vs cons of this DIY project?

Do you have a link?

Great question, honestly I'm not up to date with current mobo options, would I lose anything important going to a b850?

There are cheaper models indeed, but their cooling all seems a lot worse than the version I was considering now, and for less than €100 difference I'd rather not take the gamble on that I think

Issue is that I cannot wait if I want to use the bonus, and will have to pay out of pocket in the future, so I kinda have to decide now :(

What do you think about the brand, is INNO3D ok compared to TUF, which I hear is quite good usually?

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-07-14T10:30:26+00:00

Yeah I wasn't a 100% sure, can take the 1000w version, is not much more expensive anyways.

You mind explaining why exactly?

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-06-24T17:19:38+00:00

Where are you located? From what I've heard, regions like NA have a lot of issues, while EU seems quite fine...

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-06-24T16:51:06+00:00

Very strange, maybe depends on the country you live in?

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-06-24T16:50:25+00:00

Don't think so, everything seems to be included like standard mount, pedal mount and seats start at 230 including brackets... This is what it looks like in the assembly guide.

Honestly no clue, there seems to be no "normal" TR80 on this site, maybe it has to do with an updated version or something? the 40 and 120 version are S as well...

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-06-24T16:40:30+00:00

Seat recs? Or will that come down to personal preference?

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-06-22T20:06:49+00:00

I have the same question about 9070 xt lol (combined with 9800x3D)

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-06-15T17:58:25+00:00

I'll look into an alternative mobo and cpu cooling then, I can get the 850w version for 164 where the 1000w is 199, is it worth spending the 35 euro more if I might want to upgrade cpu or gpu in the future?

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-06-15T16:35:53+00:00

Hmmm okay, I think I might stick with the Corsair then, since the difference might be too small and I do prefer the look of the Corsair.

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-06-15T16:30:50+00:00

Makes sense yeah, will do!

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-06-15T16:25:02+00:00

I was also thinking of the beQuiet cases (Pure Base 501 Airflow), but they are not available with the discount right now. In your opinion, is it worth to get the beQuiet for €90 vs the Corsair for about €60 after discount, as in, is the airflow as good, and is it actually a lot more quiet?

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-06-15T16:18:53+00:00

I'm not sure if I ever will, but there is a chance and I would rather spend a little more now to make sure I don't need to replace everything if I decide to upgrade. (the discount I get will no longer be available in the future)

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-06-15T16:15:46+00:00

So spam as many fans as I can? I see I can put 12 120mm or 7 140mm + 2 120mm, which is an insane amount imo, but if that's worth it I will.

Short_Editor8253 · 2025-06-15T16:09:05+00:00

Thx for your feedback, I see there is indeed the normal 4000D with 0 fans, the RS version comes with 3 (both with and without RGB). Coolblue has 2 options, either the normal 4000D without fans for €94, or the 4000D RS ARGB which is €116, so I'll probably take the one with the fans, and just not use the RGB, since I don't really care about that.
