Get a mini split AC
Best button box creation tool.
What kind of button box is that on the right of you
Nice! That would be great to have in Flight Sim, DCS World too! 🤓😎 ( but it isn´t among the supported games (yet)). ☹
wild setup thanks man
Race Department brought me here. Great setup, great race.
And out of nowhere a Steelcase Gesture and no mention of it lol.
Fix for admin privileges, disable user account control. Nice setup!
Wow, this just popped up in my feed. Well done sir, very nice clean rig. I would love to know what your keyboard tray is and what the fans are above your monitor
Hi there! May I ask what software you are using to configure the Korg nanoKONTROL2?
how are you using two different mouse? Like you can leave the desktop mouse then use the rig mouse
rid is badass - i have a similar setup but always looking for tips to improve it
Kinda creepy cool that your setup is so similar to mine as I also have my desktop and simrig in the living room and tried to make it neatly as possible. Same Ikea table top and black wooden drawers on the sides. Dedicated ultrawides, keyboards for desktop and simrig. Similar macro's on button box and stream deck..lol. Your steering wheel and base is cooler tho xD Cheers
2 years later, have to say this is a lovely thought out Rig man, I also went for the one monitor for PC one for sim rig route its just easier rather than setting up switchers etc.
Extremely cool setup!! Quick tip for the screen switching if you haven’t already found a way that works. If you have a stream deck there’s a plug-in called wintools. There’s a button for changing primary displays which will make your sim display primary display and desktop display secondary. Then when you’re done racing/flying you can just press the button again and it switches back.

I've been planning on building a separate station for my sim race/drift gear using 1 PC but couldn't think of a solution for the monitors ur actually a legend!!
I really dig these setups, but I just dont want to need to buy another 43" 4k 144hz display. I dig your systems and the clean cable. Very nice. I kind of did the exact opposite, and modded a sim cage to sit higher, seat raised, with mouse area mounted on and keyboard on a laptop mount also connected to sim rig. I note that I also have had zero back pain while being in this chair.
Beautiful setup.
This may have recently changed, but VESA themselves certify DP cables for 15 meters / ~49 feet. I haven’t personally tested it though.
The info in the video is likely dated, but I continue to see issues with high bandwidth DP cables over about 6 feet in length.
The start looked like wreckfest woow..
One of my favourite setups on YT
Great Setup.
This stuff gets me daydreaming what to improve on my rig. Thank you for showing us your beautifull set up rig.
what are those two box onthe back of the seat?

That second screen only tip in windows. Wow. Exactly what i was looking for.
Great solution 👍🏼. Which fans are you using? Cheers, Alexander
Lot of helpful stuf here. Thank you
The only problem I have when I'm going to build the sim rig is the lack of usb ports on my pc. So I'm wondering is if a usb hub would work? People tell me they are kinda "buggy" so idk
They can be. Built up a collection of hubs trying to find one that worked. Found that anything important (wheel, pedals, etc) should go straight into the pc and the non essential items can go into the hub. A pcie card with unique usb busses can help quite a bit as well.
@@nerdthewise well how many usb ports do I need for (steering wheel, pedals, shift knob, hydro e-brake and a new set of mouse and keyboard?
I know this is quite old by now but where did you get the labels for your button box?
White on black tape from a cheap label maker ;)
How come you haven’t posted a video in 10 months? Did you create a new channel?
Life got in the way, but I do still hope to get back to racing and creating these.
what did you use to mount your stream deck?
VHB, a high adhesion tape that has become a mainstay of a lot of diy project
this video is a huge help for me i was looking to do the same thing for my room and i am thinking about using very similiar stuff that you are even the same desk so when i came across this is kinda showed me what miune would look somnewhat like in the end which i appreciate very much because i wasnt sure if anyone had done it before and i was wondering if you could measure the wall the desk and sim rig is on and reply with how many inches it was
Have you had the chance to compare your simucube to a VRS direct drive?
I have not, but I’ve heard reasonable things from other guys in the area.
Awesome video, what a day of driving, Looks exhausting, but that's the fun in it I suppose haha
WAGO! :D
Is the stream deck and usb hub mounted via double sided tape?
Yeah, 3m VHB. Amazing stuff and hugely useful to keep around.
What 49 inch moniter have you got for ur rig
I'm looking at merging my 1st person shooter setup into both FPS and driving/flying. I'm looking at a bunch of different options at the moment. Ideally I'll have it all at one station with a triple monitor setup, but depending on how uncomforatable the FPS setup is, I might need to do what you have done by setting up 2 seperate stations. Informative video, cheers!
What did you do in the end? I'm waiting for a 2.46 meter long ikea desk (Saljan with two Alex drawers and a leg) to arrive which I'm planning to use for sim drifting with my wheel, and for regular gaming like FPSes.
hey man, do you have to adjust the image in iRacing for the curve of the g9 at all? from the video your screen looks clear w/ no distortion and was wondering how you got it that way and what your FOV is set at. Also do you use triple screen projection in settings? Thanks so much!
Nope single screen works best. I think I have specifics in another video, but I recall it being 97 degrees or so
Great set up. Deciding between a 49" ultrawide or triples. Looks like you're racing with a 49" and wondered what would you recommend? (Currently racing on 34" ultrawide but can't see anything out the sides)
This is my second ultrawide, so you can tell where my decision landed. There's too many moving pieces to answer succinctly, but short answer: Triples are better for iRacing only, but even with a 3090 can struggle to hit 120+hz, if you plan on playing anything else though a single screen will be a lot easier to live with and take up a lot less room.
@@nerdthewise Thanks - appreciate the response.
Yo ur a life saver, I want a new setup and I didn’t know if I could have a kbm setup separately with a raving rig both connected to the same pc, I never knew how to word it into google and UA-cam so I just gave up, eventually I watched this video so thank you so much
Happy to help. Haven't spent any time racing lately, but I hope to get back to making stuff like this in the future.
Great explanations. Can I find your setups on truedrive?
did you have to modify the Frex to get it hard mounted like that?
Hello, I'm starting to mount my rig and I was looking for the monitor/s set up. I have the idea the odyssey G9 240Hz G-Sync, but Samsung have the same G9 black 1440p 144Hz but not g-sync. I think that is your monitor. Can you tel me more. Is much better the G9 240Hz or is just more money for the spec. Thanks
Wait a minute, DP is required for 120hz monitors? Also, do you plan to attach a USB hub to your rig in the future?
There is a usb hub on the rig, and it depends on the display you are using and the resolution. But to my knowledge, yes you need DisplayPort to the carry the additional bandwidth required by doubling the refresh rate.
What most people run into with 2 displays is that the graphics card usually only has one hdmi port and then one display port. So they run their primary monitor on hdmi and the second monitor off display port.
Really nice setup, i would have something like that in the future
What is your ingame settings?
I think I mentioned it as some point, but 25nm, generally running the wheel at 70-90% of that
link to button box?
I can't find the page anymore, looks like he may have stopped making them. His contact info was Nick (NMMANUFACTURING@gmail.com)
I have the same kind of setup with one pc and two displays but you don't have to turn the second display off! You can leave both displays on. Is worth the try, saves extra time and handling.
Great video and rig setup!!! Can you share any experience you have with ACC on the SC2 and probably share your settings?? I heard ACC is very difficult to setup with SC2!
Sorry, I don’t play either enough to have built something worth sharing 😭
