Project Cars Weekly TIme Trail

[born2bslow]

I've prepared myself for VR, I've got the option of a 980ti 6gb, or I can switch back to my twin gtx770 4gb cards...I need to divert SWMBO attention away from the fact I haven't sold any of the spares ...

[Derwins Revenge]

You may be better of with the 980ti, I'm sure I read that SLI doesn't work for VR yet. Might just be the Vive, maybe Oculus is different and I expect it will be sorted at some point anyhow. Some good prices on 900 cards right now as everyone clambers for the 1070 and 80. Admittedly, the new cards do look amazing, but pretty costly. I won't be accidentally buying one for a long time that's for sure.

[born2bslow]

I'm a bit annoyed about the pricing on the 10xx cards. I bought a second hand 980ti a couple of weeks before the pricing was announced for £400 thought I'd got a deal for £600 card. 2 weeks later, the same card new is £430 and the 1070 founders edition is £400 as well...damn and blast!

I'm back in the game. Built myself a rig and treated myself to a Nvidia 1080



Bought a button box as liked the toggle switches

That's a sweet setup Rex...nicely done. Where's the cup holder and what's with the wood effect?

[rex]

Cup holder is on the right side. You can just see it in one of the images
Close up here





Wood effect is as the whole rig is built from walnut, oak and ipe. It all started off based around an ikea trip trap chair and grew from there

It's really nice mate, I need to think about what I'm doing because my space is pretty limited, triples are bloody brilliant though, I'm not going back to a single screen.

It only takes up about 5 foot by 8 foot including computer, amp and speakers. It is behind the sofa in the now renamed games room. Previously was the gym.

Hi I've just had a quick go of this and I only managed a 141.334 I've tried a few of your TT and always managed to be last. I've just bought a wheel so I'm getting used to that and I've just started playing again

Quote the last table and then add your time and details. I copy and paste the line above and then put my details in

How does the kers recharge

[Trigbert]

OK if I join in, bought GOTY a few weeks back on PS4 and fancy testing my lack of skill. Can't get near those PC times though.

[born2bslow]

Everyone is welcome Trigbert.

I don't know how the KERS recharges, in fact I can't get it to, I just restart the session every couple of laps.

Just had a go, really struggling to remember which way the next corner goes let alone how tight it is.

[born2bslow]

As a tip corners either go left or right...I love being helpful

Thanks for that, I'll bear it in mind for next time.

My goodness if that's without using kerrs
Just keep the button pressed, it goes very slowly
