Will do! Thank you for the help! Would you get a 50 or 55in tv? I would now probably attach it to the cockpit instead of playing on the big 75in tv.

I asked myself the same question since I have a really good 65" not far but I couldn't install my cockpit in front .

so I got a stand and a new TV ,went for a 55 on the budget that supports at least 1440p at 120hz.
Found a deal on amazon for 499$ cad.
TCL Q65

So far so hood ,I don't regret it ,wanted to to go smaller but it does well for me .it's all about preferences you know 😊

Ha! That is very true! I want to make sure the 50in isn't too small to be honest. Want to make it feel like I am actually in the driving cockpit and not looking at a screen. If that makes sense.

I will check out that tv! I googled best sim racing tv's and there are a few on there that I will look more into. Not looking to break the bank but want to get something worth while!

Does your seat and cockpit fold up and or easy to move around?

U7K / U8K

or TCL QM8

Thanks! Then I might just put it in my home office!

MoeTE87 might want to check out the Samsung G9 odyssey which is what I use. It is a monitor, not a TV, and it does an amazing job!

here is a review of it: https://simracingcockpit.gg/samsung-odyssey-g9-monitor/

lebaaron Should I get the Xbox Series X or S? I would think the X would be the way to go.

Also, what games do you use with the Xbox to sim race?

Thanks!

Has anyone fit their stock F80 seat into their racing sim?

Some amazing setups here!

Hello, new to the forum and spending the days for my PM to activate. Don't have a sim myself but got one for Jr who is 3. I hope it will sort his bday parties until he is 10.
Had to flatten it now to get the F11 into the garage and when he saw the car jacked up he said "oh no, broken car", so I hope he will forgive me. (Ref: https://overpower.fi/products/op-child-rig2/ and monitor is Samsung G6 odyssey as that is one of few that scale on PS5 so together with the TM-GT2 (with pedals) it make this rig compatible with all platforms)

Thrustmaster gtrs 300 and ps playseat, best price/quality imo:confused2

here is my little sim-rig:

- simucube wheelbase and pedals
- gsi wheel
- triple 32"
- 6-DoF motion

My setup I put together last year. A lot of custom parts/brackets I drew up in 3D Cad along with the triple monitor stand that aren’t too obvious, but I wanted the cleanest setup possible. PDB90 soundbar mounted just above the center monitor and custom butt kicker hidden discretely below Tillet bucket seat.

Other specs:
Simucube Pro base
Simucube Active Pedal
GSI wheel
Acer Predator x45 monitors
Streamdeck
Simcore DDU
Precision Sim button box

I plan to add D-box and wind this year, but otherwise I’m happy with how it turned out for now.

driftflo How did you mount your speakers? I’m currently trying to figure out what I want to do for sound on my rig.

How did you get the upper screen to run data like that? I installed a secondary screen above (which I mainly use for Reddit to answer SIM questions I have lol), but I haven't been able to figure out how to run data on it.

Are you running iRacing, AC, or something else?

God when I think I'm still running a T500RS.. need to seriously up my game
