There was a lot of new information in the Gran Turismo 7 new trailer - we didn't just get the Gran Turismo 7 release date of March 2022, but we also got confirmation of dynamic weather through the rain indicator present in the Tsukuba wet gameplay section. Blink and you might have missed it!

My relatively low spec gear in case anyone is interested!

Fantastic video. Very very informative. Great content💚

[MrTpimms]

Can’t say I understood all of this. I understood words like ‘Christmas’ and ‘installed’ but loved it all the same!

[BeanSpeeds]

cable management gives me the hieby jibez lol

[abdulazizalzaid]

Great video.I have a question, do I need a rtx 4070 for VR sim racing using a quest 2? Or is an rtx 4060 enough? I don’t want to overkill it as I won’t be using high refresh rate monitors (only the vr headset at 90hz), thanks

[keithokeeffe]

Hi mate great video, I'm going to build my first pc for Sim racing what GPU would you recommend?thanks pcu is a i7

[paulgilbert]

Your R|AM should be in the 2nd and 4th slots. This will give you the best speed for your RAM.

[gavinmurphy]

Really informative video thank you

I’ve been fascinated by Sim Racing for a while now, I went to f1 Arcade last week and I got the bug. I’m going to start building a sim racing set up in the next year.

Motherboard is my first step…

Thanks again

I love seeing other people's PCs, especially if they're of high build quality with good components!

[danielcase]

I race on Iracing with a acer nitro5 laptop. It's got a 1650gpu 8gigs of ram and a 9th gen cpu I do believe. But my comment is that I get 80fps on medium setting at 1080 and I have it hooked up hdmi to my 55inch TV. So u can do itacing with 8gigs of ram.

[petersaint]

Hi. Great informative video. Thank you. Looking to build a PC purely for sim racing. No creating etc. still go for the same build or perhaps reduce the GPU? Thinking single screen on rig too. Thanks.

[smokinC]

In 2023, is 8 cores good for running triple 4k monitors?

[susiek]

Very impressive and clearly explained 🎖

[eesar]

do you think component prices will decrease any time in the next year?

[garysmith]

Hiya good info here.
So for a new build to run a 2k 34" screen for Iracing and Assetto comp should I wait until next 2023 for DDR5 or build now?

[adrianchannelle]

Would you definitely recommend 32gb of RAM over 16gb?

[chrischand]

Brilliant video mate, I learnt a lot from this, question, is Intel better than Amd for sim racing setups or are they same.

[acidriott]

thank you for this vid! im looking at switching from console racing and drifting (also streaming) to pc. im looking for a prebuilt that i can stream assetto corsa with mods also carx with mods and the new forza motorsport. i have 3k CAD can you recommend something.

[JeLifeCoach]

240 fps in on 1080 on a single monitor?

[metalgt]

Is there any way to get iRacing on Linux?? I think I read somewhere that it might be possible on Pantheon? Maybe? lol

[rafaelr.]

for a musician, these generic songs are a headache.
Better with no sound.
Thanks for the infos tho, thumbs up.
