I can run iRacing at 220+fps now, and Assetto Corsa Competitzione with a mix of Epic and High graphics settings to the tune of 110fps+. Monitors are triple Dell 27" 1440p with a 4th 27" cheapo monitor on top.

Do you like the triple setup? I was running triples and I did not think it added that much. Was thinking of switching to a large curved single instead. It might be the angle they are on my sim rig, but the angle is not adjustable like on some rigs.

I like it quite a bit, I have a SimLab GT1 Evo rig, and with their monitor stand I can get a great FOV with the triples. I have never ran a rig with curved triples before, and those seem to "immerse" you in the screens more. The way my FOV is now, my side view mirrors are in the the outer pair of mirrors so I still need to look over to them.

I posted another thread about it, but new to the S2K world and looking to add S2K model to Assetto Corsa. I found only one and it was RHD and not done well. Anyone know a good model and where to get it?

Also just built PC and went with 3080ti. The increase of the 3090 was not worth it in my opinion. Its my work computer but uses the RTX. Our sim rig is run on a 3060 which is fine for what we are running.

Finally pulled the trigger on a 3070ti as I noticed the prices have come down to earth. It lives! Now I just have to let it run 2 years worth of updates and re-download some stuff. Anxious to go racing.

Here is where I feel like an idiot though. The 2070ti I had that seemingly had bricked, well, the hold down tab was popped. Not sure if the 2070 is a brick after all or just was loose in the socket. Going to test it on my regular PC and if it works, great. I do video editing with that PC and have no graphics card so it will speed up things a ton.

Just started having issues with my 3080ti in the box that I work from (not the sim). I had to RMI one card for crashing issues. I finally found a vid on slightly under volting the card. Working perfectly now!

The 3070 I have runs our sim quite well so the 3070ti will kill it!
