A Guide to Large Monitors/TVs for Sim Racing
Episode 71
Monday, 8 September, 2025
The ultimate display upgrade dilemma: are triple 42" OLED monitors worth it for sim racing? We dive deep into the reality behind this immersive but demanding setup, exploring everything from connectivity challenges to performance requirements that no one tells you about. Making the jump from curved 32" monitors to flat 42" OLEDs isn't just about size—it fundamentally transforms how games look and feel. The catch? You'll need serious GPU power to compensate for the lack of G-Sync when connecting these massive displays to your PC. We break down the honest pros and cons, including the surprising benefits of flat panels for UI elements and the jaw-dropping OLED contrast that makes night racing feel incredibly realistic.We also examine SimMagic's clever new QRA quick release adapter that finally allows third-party wheels on their direct drive bases, and analyze Moza's aggressive entry into the high-torque direct drive market with their 21nm and 25nm offerings. How do they stack up against established players like Asetek at similar price points? The ecosystem matters as much as raw specs.For those planning a motion rig journey, this episode provides valuable insights on preparing your setup gradually—from strategic cable management to positioning considerations that will save you headaches later. Whether you're looking to upgrade displays, wheelbases, or your entire rig, we offer practical advice based on real-world experience to help you make informed decisions.Support the showPlease e-mail the show for any questions, comments or stories/experiences at thechicanepodcast@gmail.com TGSR/Chicane Podcast Merch Store!: https://trackghost-shop.fourthwall.com Watch the show in video podcast form on YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/@TGSsimracingAll my links: https://linktr.ee/tgssimracing Affiliates and Discount Codes trophi.ai | Use promo code CHICANE12 to save 12% on your membership https://my.trophi.ai/get-trophi?via=CHICANE Sim Gaming Expo I Use promo code CHICANE10 to save 10% on tickets. https://simgamingexpo.com/ Moradness by Daniel Morad I Use promo code CHICANE15 to save 15% off your order. https://moradness.com/ Intro/Outro Rights below:Song: Low Mileage - Hold You [NCS Release]Music provided by NoCopyrightSoundsFree Download/Stream: http://ncs.io/holdyouWatch: http://ncs.lnk.to/holdyouAT/youtube
