    Great tip with the Monitor and setting it to second display only. I will have to give it a try. I have just added a second monitor for the same reason you did. Great tour of your build. Thanks for sharing.

      Thanks! I only rarely see comments on these videos, but it’s always nice to hear the information was helpful. The sim is long gone (bought a house, no space), but times have evolved I now have the closest thing to a sim, you can actually race. Was thinking of doing a video highlighting the sim like qualities of the g87 m2. If people find that interesting I think it would be fun to record my transition into real world track days this coming spring/summer.

    For audio, I prefer to output both to speakers and headphones simultaneously. I do this by outputting to a USB Focusright Scarlett 2i2 Gen 3. Speakers connect via XLR, and I run a small TRS cable from the headhphones out to the Line In port on the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless base, which uses 2.4GHz for no lag and recharges a 2nd battery while you use the first to allow for quick swapping. I use a StreamDeck+ for audio mixing per application (WaveLink software) and there are plugins to control individual chat volume for each person on a Discord call.

    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

  • @johnnytrongaming
    @johnnytrongaming Рік тому

    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 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.

    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

    • @nerdthewise
      @nerdthewise 2 роки тому

      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.

    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!

    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!

  • @bobacampbell

    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)

    • @nerdthewise
      @nerdthewise 3 роки тому

      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
      @nerdthewise 3 роки тому

      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.

    • @MarkDavidBlack
      @MarkDavidBlack 3 роки тому

      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.
