Trouble is I have seen the wheel, pedals and shifter for £125 before......Which made the wheel about £80 :shock:

I knew I should have bought it when I saw it....It should have been a no brainer......

But that was back in the early months of the year......Before I had read up on stuff.....

And ever since I've wanted one the price has shot up.....

:x

I actually don't think you will get a BF deal much better than £20 off the current price, remember it's common practice for stores to jack up prices before black friday so the actual sale price isn't much different from the rest of the year, it just looks like it's 50% off cause three weeks ago it was 150%. So for most consumer electronics, Black friday is a total rip off.


As for buttons.
I use the d-pad for the in game car menu, those few occasions I actually use it and a toggle hud button.
Rest I leave up to VoiceAttack.



I have seen the g29 Wheel, Pedals and stick for £210

Well I got mine for £200 in Norway and we tend to be 25% more expensive :P

And now all my money is gone...

I bet I shall look like a praying mantis with a full beard :P

Nice bucket.......

O/S on the M.2 I presume.....Games on SSD and vid etc on HDD ?

Only thing I will say if ya cooler is anything like mine the pipes are as rigid as fuck.....

Trying to position on chip was a mare......Not bad if using the pad already on it.....

Kin nightmare with paste...Rigidity of the pipes slid the fooking thing all over the place whilst trying to get it in position....

And yea I might also jump on Assetto.......

It has my actual car in the line up...Plus the other ones I was looking at, at the time....The Lotus Elise and Exige

Now a big lottery win and this would be in my garage.....

Sweet christmas.
Was early.

Box for the cpu cooler is bigger than the PSU.

Now to make a win 10 usb stick and start the process, or start dinner I am peckish, and I could start assembly tomorrow.
Considering the PSU is not for the new rig, but the old I have a 1kw GQ EVGA in it that I figure I can move over.

And yea, M.2 for OS, maybe a couple of games, it has twice the capacity of my current OS SSD, SSD for other game libraries, and then old school 3TB disk for high volume storage.
