Hey guys, so due to this whole covid thing, I have a lot of exrta time on my hands. So I was going to help my friend build a racing simulator. We are building it ourselves, as it frees up money for hardware and a project to keep us busy seems like a good idea. 

 

PARTS (prices in CAD)

2 x 1080p 144hz MSI VA monitors - $300 each

1 x Gaming chair from staples - $200

Wood, decorative materials, metal w/ holes punched to adjust and re mount chair, metal pins to lock the chair in place, etc - $100 - $300

 

 

ALREADY OWNED

1 x PC (already built, 3700x, rx 570 (planning to upgrade))

1 x logitech shifter and wheel (not sure the specific model)

1 x logitech pedals (not sure the specific model

2 x speakers (again, not sure the specific model)

 

1st design -

We have decided to edit it and build it into a closet, and when I designed this we were still sticking o a single monitor setup. It will be redone to have a larger desk space and a sliding mechanism for the chair.

i5 8400 - RTX 2060 - Strix B360-I - Thermaltake 240mm AIO - 16GB Vengeance RGB PRO - CRYSTAL 280X - HD Plex 400w AC/DC Converter

CUSTOM KEYBOARD:

DAILY TECH:

Samsung Gear s3 Frontier Smartwatch - Galaxy A70 - Bose QC Earbuds - Bose SoundLink Wireless - Ultimate Ears Wonderboom
