Guru3D Rig of the Month - October 2014
Posted by: on: 10/31/2014 10:06 AM [

Sometimes a RIG does not have to be the PC chassis and internals PC, it can be a table being modified, it can be a game room or man cave, and sometimes it's just a frame. This month's rig of the month is exactly that, a race frame shaped like a roll-bar construction - and then some more. And though you will probably need a room to house this puppy, it is sheer awesomeness. Check out the rig made by Robert Ehrling from Sweden. The man is 39 years young and works as work as a upper secondary school teacher.

That's the chair I want and Obutto but customized for Flight sims instead of racing games. Trouble is I aint got the room at the moment.
Nice setup I must say, inspires myself. Enjoy man!

I've spot one major flow in this setup, one thing that's missing badly: huge, let say 1.5KW air blower positioned top/back from the screens so that feeling while driving can be more complete, and Oculus Rift of course
Joking aside it's an awesome setup, that guy just died and gone to heaven, alive!
This reminds me on my childhood some 25 years ago when my brother, me and our friends were playing Test Drive on Amiga 500: below TV there was one small desk fan pushing air to that guy who was playing. It was unbeatable feeling, next to my first sex experience
After few days of playing Test Drive in front of that fan from 5 to 10 hours a day all of us were sick like monkeys, then we had to to play some other games for few days to become healthy enough and then again Test Drive + A500 + fan@max, lol
Best for me and my wallet is not to show this RotM setup to my kids or I'm fücked. I have one setup like this in plan for past 10 years but don't have not enought time to finish the project. My friend has one insane setup similar to this but with PS3 + 52" LCD screen + (fantastic!) custom fiberglass home made Formula 1 cockpit + insane home made hydraulics sistem below cockpit: you can FEEL every bump on the road (words are not enough), wheel is equipped with home-made force feedback (my Logitech MOMO is like an chinese toy compared to that)... after 15, 20 minutes of ride for the first time everyone, I mean everyone who's playing are going right to the toilet to ease hemself Everything is perfect, he even got a nice original F1 helmet with custom made air ventilation... except it's not in full 3D but huge 52" LCD screen 50, 60cm in front of one who's playing is enough for me and guess what: air blower is missing. I tease him everytime because of that fan but he don't want to change anything. He spent more than 2 years to make that system, only God knows how many time and money he invested in that, no way I could spent that much (time) for something like that no matter how good it feels to own something like that. Should I say he's not married, yet?

Ugly(i mean it), specially that big idiotic Nvidia logo.
Failed joining Air Force lol, so they try recreate it at home living in a fantasy world as flight boy they never became haha.
Oh and i'll bet he ignore rest of humanity(family, girl friend). Don't touch my toy don't enter this room. But honey kids want your attention..shut up im busy not now leave the room. Wife(girl friend with sad face leave room and think i wish i was part of his dream, but i gues im not, starting to get idea's of leaving this sad panda with his toy alone seek happiness somewhere else
Take a chill pill dude... Everyone here on Guru3D has it's own passion, together we share passion for computers and that's why we are here. I don't see a reason for comment like yours, jealousy? How can you wrote something like that when you don't know him personally?

They need to review what classes rig of the month.
Anyone can buy and build this, Its just a collection of items you can pick up from the shop and put them together.
Any one of use can do the exact same thing there is nothing unique about this rig of the month its just a advert for the people who make the components.
Lets see some innovation not catalogue hammering.

I see that this user loves racing games. This is a very nice setup. It looks like you are in the arcades.

There is some innovation here it looks like you are in racing game in the arcades to me. What is unique about this setup is the nostalgia of being in the arcades again.

Jealous much....
Ps it's a racing setup not a flight setup
I have the same wheel but that's where the similarities end. Looks awesome to me

The setup is obviously nice, but seems overkill for mostly just racing games. It doesn't seem to offer much comfort or flexibility for anything else - it even seems a bit inconvenient for non-gaming purposes. Also, it's strictly only good for 1 user. The speaker and screen arrangement makes it a poor experience for spectators. I'd recommend getting a Rift since that would be a hell of a lot cheaper for a more immerse effect, but, I'm not sure how many racing games support that, and, it might be a little difficult navigating the "dashboard".
It's his money and if he enjoys this then it's money well spent.

You have no idea what you are talking about. And you shouldn't insult people that you have no idea what goes on in their personal lives.
