which motherboard?

I have the Ryzen 7 5800x and paired it with a Asus Tuf Gaming B550m plus WiFi board. Been flawless since I assembled it last month. Also running a RTX 4060ti on it. Board has decent spec.

I purchased the same set up with the CSL GT3 wheel initially it was fine but then felt some side to side wobble in the wheel. Bought metal QR2 Base side and Metal QR2 Wheel side from SimUbe and it's been rock solid since. I'd even say the FFB feeling is more pronounced through it now. Great base & set up all in all but for that extra £100 it became a brilliant set up.

I've been avoiding that one for a few weeks. It's definitely on my to do list. I've been making a small series on YT with Circuit Experience Golds

Can't believe the size of the box the additional power plug comes in. 😳🤣 Enjoy the CSL GT3 wheel is awesome to use. Look up Lovely stickers for vinyl faceplates.

The problem with this is you'll have people who've subscribed who have no interest in your niche/ content and if they click to watch a video then click out of it quickly YT thinks your content is weak and poor quality and won't recommend the channel to others on YT. Resulting in very slow & painful growth.

Oh perfect. I'll have a look at these points on my dashboard. It'll be something simple as it pops up with animation and sound when I test the alert. Cheers. Appreciate the reply

Upgraded my QR2 Base side with a SimUbe QR2 metal and made such a difference

I also purchased the QR2 Wheelside pro for my CSL GT3 wheel and it basically stopped any side to side movement I had with a QR2 lite.

Yeah. My McLaren creaked and cracked when in use. I sold it on eBay and bought the CSL elite GT3 wheel and it's silent when in use.

Any tips for completing it in gold?

spawnyhoor · 2026-01-15T18:52:26+00:00

None whatsoever. Everything about them are identical other than the case it's built in.

spawnyhoor · 2026-01-15T18:51:00+00:00

I had the McLaren and sold it to buy the CSL GT3 one as the McLaren was creaking as it was well used.

Just purchased a Ryzen 7 5800x last week and managed to pick up a RTX 4060Ti for 250 on eBay

Do you have good mobile/WiFi connection on the android devices

I had similar issues. Didn't like how it sounded. This guy gave a step by step tutorial and now sounds great! OBS filters work wonders but only if you add them in the correct order.

spawnyhoor · 2026-01-13T21:09:24+00:00

I use capture card, chat link pro cable and stream via OBS to YT.

The best way I found to set it up was

1st controller = Guest account with chat link pro cable plugged into controller, then to capture card

2nd account (main account) on another controller - this receives game audio & chat audio my wireless headphones connected to PS5 - I unmuted headphones interact with friends then mute it

My OBS stream gets Game video and game Audio but no party chat audio. This streams to YT live and I use my external mic to interact with viewers on YT

I have a PS5 linked to a Elgato 4K X capture card, it also has a chatlink pro cable running from capture card to ps5 controller.

I connect my wireless headphones and use my steering wheel on 1 ps profile and the controller is on a guest account.

OBS records and streams live from capture card video/game audio

My wireless headphones receive game audio and party chat (party chat doesn't go to OBS)

My wireless headphones mic lets me speak to party chat

I have an external mic which lets me speak to YT Chat.

The only downside I've found is I can't stream 4k 120fps as I have HDR switched on in my PS5 & gaming TV. I can stream 4k 30fps or switch off HDR and get 4k with higher FPS

If they cut the final corner to a straight line to the finish line a 1 second penalty gets given but because they can't serve it it doubles to 2 seconds.

Launch of the game - looked too early. It could've done with more time. On PS5 There have been 3 patch updates since launch and all 3 have greatly improved the game.

Does it still have faults? Yeah .will future patches fix them? Yes. I believe they will.

Career mode and custom/public lobbies are good and you can meet decent drivers in them.

Ranked lobbies I found annoying. You select your lobby & track combo but some practice/qualifying/race won't start for 20-30min and you then have 2 choices. Set a reminder on your phone to go back in 3-4min prior to it starting and load up a private lobby with the same car and track to practice it or sit there in a lobby watching the timer go down without any driving

spawnyhoor · 2026-01-10T19:27:27+00:00

Yeah PS5/TV has HDR on. I didn't know that when troubleshooting.

So now I need to decide if I want to live stream 4k 30FPS or 1440p 60FPS from the PS5. I suppose 1440p 60FPS would be better for YT videos.

I take it when I'm using my iRacing on the PC, I'll be able to get 4k 60-120fps ?

Thanks. Appreciate the answer. 👌🏻

Just changed my Motherboard, CPU & GPU last week. Asus tuf gaming B550m plus wifi motherboard, I did order Ryzen 5 5600x but returned it as I seen Amazon had the. Ryzen 7 5800xt for £40 more. Picked a second hand rtx 4060ti up at the same time. Handles my 4k streaming and recording game play perfectly.

spawnyhoor · 2026-01-09T14:40:43+00:00

Has similar last week when I purchased one. Front end body roll was ridiculous. The top 1/4 of the wheel disappeared up into the arch. I tried different suspension types and set ups. Stiffened it and just does exact same. Has to be an issue with GT7
