Will.. as a fellow sim racer and IT guy, you are living the dream mate. Inspiration!
Why IT guys love sim rigs...
_- me as an IT guy_
Hi Will - A big thank you and congrats to you and Tom for all the informed content you've produced throughout the years. I've followed you for about 5 years or so, just after I started my sim racing journey, and you have been, and continue to be, my first point of reference for any honest and trustworthy reviews of product.
It's great to see how far you've came, both professionally and personally, and I admire not only what you've achieved, but how you've got there with dignity, kindness and respect. I wish you and your whole family the very best for the future.
I was so impressed by the amount of thought behind the sim setup AND THEN you casually moved over to the Lotus Emira. You guys are dream catchers!
My new Gt Neo and Simagic Alpha gets shipped tomorrow ❤❤ Thanks for helping me to make informed decisions, Will
gt neo is a great wheel.. wanted one since boosted media reviewed it (hadnt long had my g923 hand me down that started me on this hobby).. then logitech finally released the RS QR and now i have one on my g pro.. you will love it.. even more if you love tinkering with all the lights which ive not really started doing yet as i mostly race VR
@@awakeandwatching953 can't wait mate, cant wait! Haven't got mag link yet though but I'll be happy to see what simpro offers to begin with.
Main reason i went the alpha base over the cs dd in the end, was their QR system and the native GT Neo support
You're going to love it! Simagic is legit.
Got that exact combo about a month ago. ZERO regrets. It's incredible.
Will is a simucube fanboy cus he got free activepedals
Man KEEP IT UP, you have one of the most immersive UA-cam sim racing channels since I can remember. LOVE IT.
Got back into sim racing this year after a few years of finally relocating to a more stable environment. Been following your videos ever since! This really blew my mind how much goes happens behind the scenes of this amazing channel! Would love to see more content outside of simracing, perhaps some more casual style vlogs on your Emira out in Australia, really an eye opening!
The thought, planning and processes that you put into making your video's are incredible. If i lived in Australia i would be in a sim racing bunker just like you are.
This rig is special, this rig and Will are also what got me into sim racing years ago, my geeky rig build/upkeep/upgrades along with the racing has been so much fun, I am so glad I went down this path, thank you to Will and this rig for getting my juices going and deciding one day that I am going to go for it and start building one
Thanks!
I've been subscribed since late 2020 so I've seen some of the evolution of the channel. I love that you guys are innovating instead of staying complacent. I'm obsessed with sim racing and I love driving, but a lot of my enjoyment of the hobby comes from just seeing and researching new gear. And there's no better place to go than Boosted Media.
Fellow Sim Racer and Lotus Emira owner here 🙋🏻♂️
Nice Studio Will, love it 👏🏻
Bad ass stuff Will! I’ve been simracing for two years now and am about to buy my first proper rig, your content led me to Simagic and sim labs. Thank you and keep up the phenomenal content mate!
Advice for those new to the sim world: if Boosted doesn’t approve, avoid it!
Thanks this behind the scenes tour I found it very interesting, as I always do when I get to see how other sim racers design and build their setups, but that studio really takes things to another level and reflects why your content is so good, in-depth and engaging.
Thank you for your hard work. I recently got into sim racing, your videos have been invaluable in choosing the right sim gear for me.
Tidying up eh - would love to see the outtake where the massive Huntsman jumps out at you 😁
Haha. We do get a few.
Nice Lotus
me and my dad were constantly looking at the car in the background. now we know. thanks
would love some more handheld content, it's such an awesome surprise to see someone who i've watched for so so long now in the simracing community be into something else which i also love so much :)
That beautiful car parked next to the rig looks amazing!!
Would love a video (or some ramblings) on a dream setup, not for content creation, but for personal use, not only on sim racing gear specifically but monitor choice etc., and maybe at different budget levels also! Great content as always!
The coolest mancave ever for a racing enthusiast
Very cool. Actually just searched and watched the old tour video the other day just because I wanted to see it again. Nice to see a new tour video.
An idea for a future video for you. Moza are releasing their indicator stalks soon, and Eurotruck simulator's next update will have a Learning mode in it (teaching how to drive the trucks, reverse them etc)
If you set it in the big rig with the TSW wheel, indicator stalks and with the proper FOV (the devs have a guide for setting up triple monitors with the correct FOV as well as turning off the in game steering wheel) I think that'd make for a very entertaining video for both you and the audience (I might be biased as I actually drive trucks for a living)
Either that or in VR using that amazing Quibic system motion sim. I found Euro truck in VR pretty phenomenal, but my original HTC vive doesn't quite do it justice
Love the content as always, keep up the great work!
i love these videos. I'm into everything you're into :) sim racing, cars, retro game players, steam deck, PCs :)
Love this tour wow this is actually incredible Will!!
Thank you for making this video! It gave me some ideas for my setup, especially the 57 inch Samsung monitor.
Appreciate the story behind the Emira! It blew my mind when I first saw it in the background.
also, apologies if its been done before, but I think it would be really cool to watch a doc based around an endurance race, based in your studio, using the same rig. I know people have done streams all in the same place, but a documentary style video would be really cool with a plot and interviews. Get some streamers together in the motion rig or something haha
Life is beautiful brother 💪❤️
Absolutely smooth transition!
man all of us car folk have been just 👀👀👀👀👀 that Lotus for so long wondering lol. stoked for you being able to make that happen 👍🏻
I laughed when you showed your wheel collection. I just bought that exact same MOMO wheel that was on the floor.
Nice to see you back and running,Mr 2 time.
Man that is simply awesome.
Hi Will,
Great tour video, your content is always first class and my go to for anything Sim Racing related.
I have always struggled to get a good set up iracing on my single screen curved monitor would it be possible for you to do a video on fov and driver seating position to get the best and most immersive experience.
Much appreciated
Steve
Great tour Will!
RBM has the best set up
Thank you for sharing.. your sim racing rig is on my wish list😍.. Lotus sports car is my dream!🤩
Id love to see a track video of that lotus! 😍 nice whip man and extra street cred coz its manwell 😀
Some suggestions for water cooling hardware ...
If I was building a loop today for somebody (which I am), this is what I would be considering. Order isn't strict, but first is better than last unless otherwise noted. Ranking factors in value, performance and build quality:
* CPU blocks: Watercool, Alphacool, Optimus, Aquacomputer, Iceman Cooler, Bitspower, EK
* GPU blocks: Watercool, Optimus, Alphacool, EK, Bitspower
* Tube reservoirs: Watercool, Iceman Cooler, Singularity Computers, Alphacool, XSPC, Bitspower
* Flat reservoirs: Alphacool (Core Distro), Stealkey (flat res or distros), EK (FLT or Reflection), Bitspower
* Pump: Aquacomputer D5 Next, Alphacool VPP Apex, any normal D5 PWM, DDC 3.2 or higher with a heatsink
* Radiators: (All rads are pretty good) Watercool, Alphacool, EK, Hardware Labs/Corsair/Bitspower, XSPC
* External radiators: Watercool MO-RA IV, Alphacool Nova, any rad above in large size with an external radiator stand
* Hard tube fittings: EK (their aesthetic is still top IMO and the quality is good), Barrow (high quality, low cost), Bitspower/Corsair, Optimus, Bykski/Primochill
* Hard tubing: Corsair acrylic (has color options), pretty much any acrylic tubing, any brass/copper metal tubing
* Soft tube fittings: Koolance, Barrow, Bitspower/Corsair, Optimus, EK
* Soft tubing: Pretty much any EDPM (black tubing).
* Quick disconnect fittings: Koolance
* Other fittings: Barrow (they have the most variety), EK, Bitspower
* Fluid: Aquacomputer Double Protect Ultra, Koolance 702, Mayhems X1, Corsair XLR8
* Controllers: Anything from the Aquacomputer ecosystem
* Tools: Primochill rigid finishing bit, mini miter table saw, Alphacool ruler kit, adjustable temp heatgun, fill bottle with nozzle
* Fans: (120mm) Phanteks T30, Noctua A12-25, Bequiet Silent Wings 4 Pro, Lian Li P28, Alphacool Apex, Arctic P12. (140mm) Bequiet Silent Wings 4 Pro, Noiseblocker B14-PS
* RGB fans: Any of the fans mentioned above + some type of RGB fan frame, Lian Li's AL V2/SL V2/TL, Phanteks D30
Cool ride. Congrats.
Goals brother !!!
Nice editing Thumbs up there Tom
Will, just a greeting from me and great tour
Just a suggestion as I was watching would be to try the DJI Osmo Action Cameras if the overheating is an actual problem you want to fix.
I know those are way better at not overheating compared to the GoPros, and my Osmo Action 3 has rarely overheated.
Still an amazing setup. I still remember when you assembled that PC with a white UFO-like case. Back then you also explained why the second PC for live streams through OBS and stuff. Do you still use the same workflow? Or has something changed in the meantime? Would you update that streaming workflow review as well? Congrats on your success Will, besides a great channel that you have you're also a great inspiration and source of knowledge to all of us followers. Cheers and God bless you all.
Thanks mate. I don’t stream anymore but still use the same workflow for recording race videos
Great job
DDR5-4000 and DDR4-2133 - did someone forget to turn on XMP? 👀
In all seriousness, all of this looks incredible!
Yeah I wanna see the handheld stuff mate if its sim related, for sure
New GSI wheel?? We need that review asap, along with the asetek invicta wheel about to drop
You could do a review of a triple 55" Samsung Ark. It would be nice too see if 1000R curve is any good, specially on such size. Pair it with the qubic motion :) Great setup as always
I’ll love to build a budget Sim PC - HelP!!!
comfort youtuber drops new video RAHH 👹❤️
Im just here to look at the emira, same as your other videos.
Still my dream rig!
Can you maybe do a video tutorial on how you made the dash?
Great video and very honest, you are certainly living the dream, but without Ego you see elsewhere, as for content, I have asked for this before, but I would like you to take a look at the budget or low end side Steering wheel, for those of us, on "ready to race" basic systems, (Fanatec P1 v2 8nm in my case) looking for a third party add on wheel. Simagic GT Neo Price range. Would also request UK GBP is added to your reviews. Thanks.
Hey Will , Guys here
Can you test the htc vive pro 2 vr headset please. Also, racing with 7.1 surround sound is out of this world. If you decide to go down that road, for the love of god put the speakers on stands at ear level and not on the floor or facing up.
I recently came across a UA-cam video of a guy who set up a green screen behind his wheel so he could see his rig in vr. Have you ever thought about trying that?
How does that work?!
@@Very_Grumpy_Cat I have absolutely no idea but it looked really cool
@eadonnichols6914 i think I just saw the video. Mixed reality racing from 8 years ago. That is pretty amazing.
@@Very_Grumpy_Cat That would be Mixed Reality Sim Racing. The guy is an engineer at Fanatec.
Will, will you dive deeper into flight sims? All the force feedback stuff and cockpit modules has really come alive as of late.
We have a pilot doing written flight sim reviews for us. They’re all on our website. At some point we might start doing videos too. We’ll see.
rog ally x review would be cool
Have you tried a desktop webcam on the Hemet cam, feeding that to obs for recording. USB powered and can be on all day.
More drifting on VR with QS
On your GoPro 12 are you using the media mod or not. Are you running the usb c to your pc to like an Elgato cam 4 link? I get a “no signal” when trying to connect through obs. Good to see you using the sc2 ultimate 👍
Will do a comparison of all the Newest VR headsets for 2024 ? Thanks
Nice lizence plate 😂
I wish there was currently a 65 inch monitor that had DisplayPort
Can we get your Gopro Settings for recording????
Question: How many sim racing rims do you have? Think you could also list them so maybe i could check a few out to see if i want one? Also would the Cube Controls F-Pro be a good investment or should the CSX-3 be better?
Hey can u guys review the marada aluminum racing cockpit. It looks like a great deal but theirs no reviews on it.
The question which came to my mind is:
Why has your rig a shifter on the right side and ur car on the left side? :D
So with the VR and a motion rig, how well does the tracking even work? I would imagine inside out would not allow you to choose if it locks on to the rig or the room around it (atleast for people who dont place it right in the middle of a garage), and the light houses may wobble with the motion rig if attached to it
Vr with motion needs motion compensation. So oxrmc software with simhub for example works great. It doesnt matter if you have inside out tracking or light houses. Light houses stay at fixed positions, not at rig.
You got so many water cooled pc. Would it be time consuming when you wanna perform maintenance?
Is there a possibility of reviewing the cheap ali express stuff?
Are simucube worth the upgrade from fanatec csl dd? Looking to upgrade to a little more ffb than the 8 nm with the boost pack. I’ve watched all the videos on your channel and just feel overwhelmed on what direction to go in terms of upgrading and staying within fanatec or switching brands
NICE! But how much is your electricity bill? 😜👍
Is there an adapter now in 2024 that will take display port to HDMI 4k 120hz and will support vrr & hdr? Im wanting to run triple 4k tvs
a lot of guys you have there
Would you ever consider selling the Simlab frame locally?
Waiting on the samsung 57" monitor review before i buy one within the next 2 months.
Any moza wheels you dont use anymore? ha. also do 60 inch tv's change anything compared to my 27 inch ones or just imersion?
Biggest upgrade I noticed you didn't mention.... The Dad-Bod ;)
the upgrade we all make at some point
Yeah. Trying very hard to get rid of it at the moment. My daughter has an eating disorder so we’ve been having to eat high calorie meals lately which hasn’t helped.
Sorry to hear that. Your children are everything. I couldn't imagine going through something like that with my son. Must be hard. He was born prematurely, we spent 3 months in the icu and the first year I gained like 10 kilos. Those kilos will go away. Your daughter is the most importantly thing. And gaining a dad-bid, because you support her battle with an ED, is probably the most supportive thing I've ever heard. Keep it up!
@@ewollenbergcthanks. Yeah it sucks. Can take her 3 hours to eat a piece of bread sometimes. It’s especially hard because you can’t get angry or even mildly frustrated because then they associate it with eating which makes the problem worse. So it’s literally just encouragement and patience. I was almost back down to my healthy weight after Covid, then this happened.
Smashing the exercise bike and rowing machine every day and starting to see a difference thankfully.
@@boostedmedia I'll pray for you and your family if that's ok. God bless you.
Your community loves you, bro
Yoooo!!!!
So, how would you build a rig for an average day to day driver?
Can I come to your house? Lmao
How did you mount the car puride to your cockpit.
do you do any giveaways for the old wheels you no longer use?
Where did you get the little screen and CarPlay adapter can I get it in USA
How’s the FFB in the Lotus? LOL
I got a DM earlier from you saying you wanted to adopt me .. when am i booking my plane ticket mate? :P
I am wondering if you have link for CarPlay for tablet
can you test conspit new pedals place❤
Hi long time viewer, I just wanted to nowhere do you sell your old gear that's no longer needed?
Sometimes. We post stuff up in the for sale section on our discord when it’s available.
Think my setup is better. Nlr traction, v3 seat mover.. asetek invicta and invicta pedals. Bdh shifter. Jinx handbrake. Oddessy ark 55'. Rog full btf build with 4090. Samsung q990d ÷ Oddessy ark for sound. Loupedeck for buttons and knobs
Oh what wheel is that on 0:28?
Cube Controls CSX3
Get your brother back Infront of the camera. I really enjoyed his videos
3rd!!
just wondering how much you pay for electricity per month with all those monsters powered on lol😂
I am thinking of going with Simagic mainly because of price, Do you think it is a good choice, Thanks
How much did the electrical work cost to make your house handle such high power demands 😂 bet you wish albo had followed thru with his $275 power bill reduction promise lol
Had about $6000 worth of electrical upgrades done when we moved in and added solar as well. So about $30k worth of electrical all in.
And they say money can’t buy happiness 😒
