i tried a buddy's oculus rift on I racer. he has the beta testing thing.. I can't speak nerd that well. it seriously ruined me. that is amazing. you can detect slip angles so much easier. it seriously cannot be explained how realistic it feels. if you get a chance to try it do so. example you can look over the roll bars by shrugging. i was able to jump into the mx5 and do fast laps around road Atlanta. it felt like i was actually there. the graphics do suck. looking far out for a braking point was staring at one white pixel.. but i'm sold. i did get a moment of motion sickness when i went into the first turn, and there where no G forces. If i could find a motion rig i would sell a race car to finance it.

Regardless I was a little disappointed with the straight out of the box G27.
My point was there's like $10k worth of computer, monitor, cockpit, etc., but only $300 in wheel/pedals/shifter.
Even if it's only $5k worth of other stuff...
How much for the joystick setup?

maybe it is a g25, I was going based off what I could see in the video preview.

If you want theres an even more DIY level for these things where a company called x-simulator sells software for it that interfaces with a selection of control boxes and you can build your own actuator setup.

Unfortunately, I was with Johnny testing the same setup, and could not resist the Oculus Rift.
60k has pretty good overhead on components for the rig above.
Here is one DIY base with similar concept for $2400, frame and actuators are there.
I haven't tried one long enough to tell hot it feels when the seat moves, but the wheel and pedals don't.

I use a 2gb nvidia gtx 770 with 3 x 1900x1200 Dell 24" monitors for iracing. PC is an overclocked i7 K series running around 4.6ghz with 16gb of memory. Steering wheel is a logitech g27 on a wheel stand pro wheel stand.
Decent setup but i'm buying an occulus as soon as a production model is available.

The DK2 for a computer savy person is fine. Its not ready for the mouth breathers, it certainly doesnt have the feel in your hands of a final production consumer product, but its not all that bad. I'm not sure we're ever going to see the consumer version from occulus, I bet the valve gear comes out first, as the first real mass market vr headset that doesnt require a smart phone.
