I Purchased yesterday the Fanatec GT3 RS V2 wheel.
I already have the Clubsport pedals and H shifter.

 

[nick09]

Great wheel. 👍

I'm still getting used to mine and I can tell already that my skills need to be worked on. I plan on getting the shifters pretty soon so I can start making use of the clutch.

 

[Kryz11]

It is great because currently I own the V1. I am tired of switching back and forth the date so it can work with prologue and ABS vibration wont work . GT5 will be out soon so I needed to upgrade it, but upgrade kits are on delay, so they wont be in before GT5, so instead I just spend 180 bucks on V2 wheel instead so finally I can test out the ABS vibration out with GT5 . The V1 wheel ill upgrade in the future and give it to my brother.

You can also play GT4 if you have an 60GB or 80GB PS3 with PS2 playability. The FF is weaker in GT4 but it's great to see how the cars drive like with the wheel. I think it's time that I open the top off of my PS3 and clean it since I have owned my 60GB for 3-4 years.

 

[Kryz11]

Yeah I have the 60 gig as well the new slim. but I think Ill just play Prologue all over again from scratch. Almost 27 days to go so Prologue will be interesting again.

Found these at Home Depot for $10.00 while looking for a piece of scrap 1x6 to finish my cockpit.

 

[Kryz11]

They look cool!. I got fingerless gloves with same leather that you have, to easier press the buttons, but to have nice grip of the wheel.

The suede on that wheel looks cool. I was looking on eBay for a suede wheel to put on my G27, but decent ones start at like $150 plus $40 for the adapter.

Just purchased a new laptop for DJing. I have been looking around for months trying to find something suitable. Finally decided on a Dell Studio 1558 as the Dells that we use at work are so reliable. Obviously I'll be discarding the usual Dell software that is installed and having a very minimal setup.

Specs are:

Intel Core i5-430M 2.26Ghz
4GB DDR RAM
500gb Hard Drive
LED HD 15.6" screen
512MB ATI Mobility RADEON HD 4570 Graphic Card
Battery 56 WHr, 6-cell
Integrated Dual-Band

Total price was £549.99 which includes 3 year on site repair warranty. This was an outlet system from Dell which means it was returned but they are as new. Will post the pics once it arrives.

After purchasing that laptop I was having really bad problems with the laptop freezing. After searching the Dell forums I found out it's a really common problem with that particular model. Unfortunately it had to be returned.

To replace it I purchased a Samsung R580.

CPU and Memory:

Intel Core i3 330M.
2.13GHz processor speed.
3GB DDR3 RAM memory.
320GB SATA hard drive.

Display features:

15.6in display.
Resolution 1366 x 768 pixels.
DVD optical drivesual layer.

Graphics:
NVIDIA GeForce GT 310M graphics card with 512MB memory.

Interfaces and connectivity:
Multi-Media Card (MMC) compatible.
4 USB ports.
1 HDMI port.
Bluetooth.
B/g/n wireless/WiFi enabled.

After the "Dells are awesome" comments, that about figures.

Indeed, I think we spoke too soon. At least the Dell machines at work are still going strong. 👍

Sweet, how do you like it?

I'm planning on buying a 55" Series 6 LED, It's not 3D but it's on sale at the moment, the image and build quality is pretty amazing from what I've seen so far.👍

It even makes normal tv look great! Though it is a little big to be on my rig Ahh well
I havent tried the 3D part yet & I need to play with the settings but so far I'm VERY happy. The 7 series screens really are amazing.
I managed to get this really cheap! £649 Most places have it for £899+

Yeah, from what I've seen it's very very clear, hardly any noise at all and the colors are very natural, not too bright, not too dim.

Guess I'll be doing more research!
