About To Pull The Trigger........

9 posts in this topic

I am about to jump in headfirst and I made my final list of hardware and software to purchase;

CSW Base

F1 Rim

BMW GT2 Rim

CS Pedals V2

CS Shifter SQ

CSL Wheel Stand

F1 2013

Asseto Corsa

I am tempted to get a seat, but with all the choices I need to do some more research. Now I just have to wait and see what Black Friday brings. I noticed that Fanatec had a nice promotion last year and it would be nice to get a deal!

Here is a picture of my PC "engine" that will be powering everything..............

Sounds like me about a month ago, but I had to buy everything for the computer as well. I was building up everything for iRacing moving over from Forza on Xbox.

 

I bought the ClubSport Base, BMW rim, and pedals. I was waiting to get a rig before purchasing a shifter and have just been using the flappy paddles on the rim. I want a F1 rim, but don't really like the current one from them. I am really hoping they come out with something that is more like a true F1 rim with dials and other things like on the T500 wheel. I am very happy with the Fanatec parts I have gotten so far. My gas pedal was super annoying with a major squeak after about 60 minutes of use, but I just fixed that finally this past weekend.

 

Good luck and enjoy!

Unless you're an absolute F1 fanatic, I'm take that money and buy Game Stock Car 2013 instead (24.99). F1 2013 will definitely be on sale during the Steam Winter sale (and in all likelyhood, the autumn sale during Thanksgiving). You could get both for the same price or maybe even less by waiting. And GSC 2013 is the superior game anyways.

HOLD UP on buying from steam... F1 2013 standard edition is £12.99 from HERE - I use this site a lot and always has some great deals. It's just a key you buy and activate it on steam ;)

 

CHEERS! :D

 

You sure it's not pirate? I've already got F1 2013 Classic Edition, but this seems like a great site. To the OP, what case is that? It looks really good with the white light and the custom tube water cooling! BTW go for the CSW!

Thanks, the case is a CaseLabs TH10 with a pedestal. I will be buying the CSW as soon as they post the promotion for Black Friday.
