Similar setup OP with AMD RX 6900 XT GPU. And I first noticed it when rain came in Season 2. But now I see the dots in even night races. So it's not a rain only thing, but maybe some graphic programming that was added to support rain ... but happen's to be visible during low light conditions with AMD processors (without the most ideal settings).
OP ... I have a P1 X as well. Not sure why you didn't go with the Castor set from Sim Lab. I purchased them for both the rig and the triple monitor stand. Zero issues.
I got mine from micro center that’s why. Didnt know they had casters on their site. Usually the shipping is just as much as the parts(60$). I’ll look at these.
Ahhh .. makes sense OP. And yeah, shipping is a thing but Sim Lab is more reasonable about items like this. However, I do wait and buy a few things at a time to consolidate on shipping costs. Hope you find what you are looking for OP!
OP ... Not just the rig, put the triples on casters too. I've done the same. Makes cleaning, moving, upgrading, and adjusting soooo much easier. Just make sure the two leading castors are lockable to keep it all stationary.
You need to get that unit as close to the window as possible to let it vent effectively. Yes that hose is going to radiate heat. The longer that hose is and the more it’s strung across your room the worse it’s gonna get. I would be you almost get zero cooling in there with that exhaust hose the way it is.
This. ^^^ I had a similar in-room AC unit. Way more efficient cooling when it was near my window instead of near the outlet. Maybe slide your desk and rig back and place the AC unit in between the wall and your desk? IMHO
I think it’s just because I can use it for so many different things. It being round helps a lot. I don’t even race rally much but I love the wheel. Very versatile
Thanks dude. Yup. I drilled 4 holes and screwed a 1/2 inch diameter 4" long plumber pipe to the bottom of the Sparco seat. The Buttkicker Gamer 2 mounts to this piece of pipe. Worked out surprisingly well.
Same for me OP. Only the Master on two Fanatec shipments got the Hold at location. The remaining packages were shipped to my home anyway. Even after calling FEDEX and the rep promising me that all 7 packages have been set for hold at location.
Once you set up a stereo pair with the Large homepods, you will absolutely wonder why you waited so long. I have mine about 20 feet apart filing a large room and the TV sound is still immersive, clean, and precise. Prefer this over my distributed ceiling speakers in the same room.
Been working with iRacing said its a hardware issue idk why because set up is not a year old yet

The fix for that was on the Graphic tab put the Particle on Low Detail fix my night races
Sweet! TY OP.
Sweet sim nook mate. Love the black walls. I'd bet it's pretty immersive in night races.
2004 ain’t too shabby either

Man, how perfect is that M-sport button box for any steering wheel, though?
Absolutely mate. It can rock out with just about any wheel since it sits on front of the rim. Fanatec's most versatile button box.

Already looking at steam deck, shifter, and flight sticks 😂
Add some casters to the list OP. Unless you want a workout each time you make a future upgrade. Enjoy that sweet setup!
Nice and clean. Well done OP. This is something that absolutely is needed in the Fanatec Ecosystem.

You bet, I have 6 casters on it. Once I roll it in, I'll cable manage in a way that it's just a few clicks so I can roll it out

Jumping in head first is an understatement. But this hobby has a way of doing that. Sweet rig! And welcome to the community.

Grid rsr and podium rally
Interesting. I'm curious why the podium rally stands out among all of these other rims? Unless ... it is because it's on the only round wheel you own.
I think it’s just because I can use it for so many different things. It being round helps a lot. I don’t even race rally much but I love the wheel. Very versatile
Thanks OP! I would agree on its versatility. I have my podium rally on a sparco formula rim.
Thanks for sharing!
OP .. It's still up on the North American site:
Great setup. You drilled the buttkicker gamer 2 to the sparco chair?
Thanks dude. Yup. I drilled 4 holes and screwed a 1/2 inch diameter 4" long plumber pipe to the bottom of the Sparco seat. The Buttkicker Gamer 2 mounts to this piece of pipe. Worked out surprisingly well.

Sweet Post. Nice progression OP. Great habit. Enjoy!
My stats OP. Packages are traveling different routes to the east coast.
Sweet setup mate. Well done and very tasteful.
just got my tracking email from fedex. i saw that you got yours too. hope we all get our stuff with no issues!
Yup. It’s moving slowly .. but moving. Hoping at least all the BF orders get to their destinations before Christmas!
OP ... most of us have waited longer in the US. For what it's worth, It's been 17 days:

Enjoy OP! When did you make your order and where in the US are you located?
