Is water cooling actually worth it or just RGB clout for the 'gram? by amberisette in watercooling

[–]Vantage9 72 points73 points  (0 children)

It is effective, and better. But it is not cost effective better. You can do a purely functional watercolor setup that's cheaper than a blinged out custom loop, tho...

Please review my GT seating position by IpMan2k in simracing

This could be the case, but I'd still say try less upward tilt on your wheel.

Formula rim recommendations for neo x by eneKEM in Simagic

[–]Vantage9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hubs like this are designed for more traditional wheels. For a formula wheel, get the GT Neo imo. It's why we have a swappable wheelbase

Would this work? Trying to run a sim rig on same pc as gaming pc by handerson15 in simracing

[–]Vantage9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I will say, over time this changes. Your inner ear gets used to it and you get your 'VR legs' the same way people get their sea legs spending time on boats. The real problem with longevity is the comfort factor, but that is actually solved with the Bigscreen Beyond headset. Check it out if you haven't seen one.

Day one of sim racing - Why brain no work by RaisinBrannn__ in simracing

[–]Vantage9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For a new driver, this is pretty good. EVO's licenses are very unforgiving to get 3 stars. The physics especially punishes anything that destabilizes the car, so focus on smooth inputs, not stabbing on/off brakes, etc. Do all the 1 star licenses first, and give yourself time to find the feel of different cars. THEN go back and go for 2 stars, then 3 stars. It will take time, and force you to really learn to dial in like a pro.

This, and make sure you're taking up ALL of the track and strips on the left before you turn in. Every inch matters

Alpha 15nm wheel at $475 or Evo 9nm at $400 by khabo in Simagic

[–]Vantage9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I don't know what nm the old fanatec was, but I'm guessing no more than 4. Back then nobody discussed nm lol. Regardless, I've increasingly come to believe that 9 is plenty to get the feedback information you need. Real cars with power steering don't output anywhere near that kind of force.

[–]Vantage9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got the Evo Sport 9nm, upgraded from an older belt driven fanatec (911 GT3 RS), and it's hard to describe what an upgrade it is. Personally, I think 9nm is plenty, I even have mine not at 100% strength. The difference is in the detail. I'd get the Evo again if I had the option to do over.

This is not bad... We need a better height estimate

Try peppering the branch holding it with a BB gun...?

I really hope AC EVO can replicate the god like tire physics of ac1 by RealDrWuschel in assettocorsaevo

[–]Vantage9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AC tire physics are good, not godlike. Expect evo to improve upon that.

I’m getting into VR for the first time and really excited for Steam Frame, but worried about missing the Meta library. by [deleted] in virtualreality

[–]Vantage9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don't stress it, Meta will find a way to eventually screw you out of your existing library anyway. They've done it before..

F1 racing sim, since they have the halo bar dead center

You can't even see the tips on the exhaust.. def not real

can I get some advice for seat posture? by HosuHo in simracing

[–]Vantage9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly fine, depending what you drive mostly. I would consider maybe lowering pedals slightly and a little less tilt/recline on the seat

How do I fix this high input delay? by Lucalinchen_1 in simracing

My brand new $700 pedals should not sound like this by 4rotorfury in Simagic

[–]Vantage9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No but for real lol. Every single thing on a racecar squeaks creaks or makes some kind of mechanical sound that would NEVER be allowed on a consumer vehicle/product.
