I've spot one major flow in this setup, one thing that's missing badly: huge, let say 1.5KW air blower positioned top/back from the screens so that feeling while driving can be more complete, and Oculus Rift of course πŸ˜‰ Joking aside it's an awesome setup, that guy just died and gone to heaven, alive! πŸ™‚ This reminds me on my childhood some 25 years ago when my brother, me and our friends were playing Test Drive on Amiga 500: below TV there was one small desk fan pushing air to that guy who was playing. It was unbeatable feeling, next to my first sex experience πŸ˜€ After few days of playing Test Drive in front of that fan from 5 to 10 hours a day all of us were sick like monkeys, then we had to to play some other games for few days to become healthy enough and then again Test Drive + A500 + fan@max, lol Best for me and my wallet is not to show this RotM setup to my kids or I'm fΓΌcked. I have one setup like this in plan for past 10 years but don't have not enought time to finish the project. My friend has one insane setup similar to this but with PS3 + 52" LCD screen + (fantastic!) custom fiberglass home made Formula 1 cockpit + insane home made hydraulics sistem below cockpit: you can FEEL every bump on the road (words are not enough), wheel is equipped with home-made force feedback (my Logitech MOMO is like an chinese toy compared to that)... after 15, 20 minutes of ride for the first time everyone, I mean everyone who's playing are going right to the toilet to ease hemself πŸ˜€ Everything is perfect, he even got a nice original F1 helmet with custom made air ventilation... except it's not in full 3D but huge 52" LCD screen 50, 60cm in front of one who's playing is enough for me and guess what: air blower is missing. I tease him everytime because of that fan but he don't want to change anything. He spent more than 2 years to make that system, only God knows how many time and money he invested in that, no way I could spent that much (time) for something like that no matter how good it feels to own something like that. Should I say he's not married, yet?

Take a chill pill dude... Everyone here on Guru3D has it's own passion, together we share passion for computers and that's why we are here. I don't see a reason for comment like yours, jealousy? How can you wrote something like that when you don't know him personally?

I see that this user loves racing games. This is a very nice setup. It looks like you are in the arcades.
They need to review what classes rig of the month. Anyone can buy and build this, Its just a collection of items you can pick up from the shop and put them together. Any one of use can do the exact same thing there is nothing unique about this rig of the month its just a advert for the people who make the components. Lets see some innovation not catalogue hammering.
There is some innovation here it looks like you are in racing game in the arcades to me. What is unique about this setup is the nostalgia of being in the arcades again.

Very clean setup. Its nice but like stated its mostly pre built bought stuff. Mine isnt as nice but my cockpit setup is built from scratch. Still props to system owner.

The setup is obviously nice, but seems overkill for mostly just racing games. It doesn't seem to offer much comfort or flexibility for anything else - it even seems a bit inconvenient for non-gaming purposes. Also, it's strictly only good for 1 user. The speaker and screen arrangement makes it a poor experience for spectators. I'd recommend getting a Rift since that would be a hell of a lot cheaper for a more immerse effect, but, I'm not sure how many racing games support that, and, it might be a little difficult navigating the "dashboard". It's his money and if he enjoys this then it's money well spent.

You have no idea what you are talking about. And you shouldn't insult people that you have no idea what goes on in their personal lives.

Ah right cool, well wait until it's completed and then post a few pics, look forward to seeing it πŸ™‚
Thanks mate. Im proud of it for a poor boy cockpit. I designed it to be able to play more games then just racing games.

and watching someone wearing the rift is more fun ? I reckon taking the p!ss while someone is wearing could be more fun heeh
Well, what I was getting at is this setup is less immerse than getting a Rift, and though it is better for spectators than the Rift, it still isn't good for spectators either. The major benefit of this setup is the significantly higher screen resolution, and true surround sound. So even though it might not fill your entire POV, it will be much higher detail than the rift.
