Ultimate Triple Screen Setup For Simracing - Aorus Fo48u
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.ค. 2022
- I've always wanted to make my simracing experience as immersive as possible. I've been inspired by other great simracing youtubers such as Boosted Media and Karl Gosling's awesome setups. Thus started my quest for the Ultimate Triple screen setup and I think I've found it!
Disclaimer: I purchased these monitors myself and was not sponsored at all from Gigabyte Aorus.

Excellent Review. I was on the fence regarding these monitors for my rig and this sold it to me.
I think this is the first vid I have seen featuring triple Aorus monitors. I couldn't physically fir the 48's in my sim racing space so went for triple 43's and I absolutely love them. Took me a long time to sort out graphics settings, FOV etc but it has all been worth it. I'm still rubbish at racing but it feels 1:1 when sat in the car. Good vid dude.
what 43's did you go for FV43 ?
@@nickmoxley6038 yes mate.
Thank you! I was quite not confident about 1-1 ratio with triple 48.
But since you said you’re satisfy with triple 43, then I guess if I go to triple 48 is fine.
After watching this video and reading comments along with your 48's, now I wish I had taken more time in shopping, I went with the LG 42" OLED C2's and am struggling trying to match the vesa mounts to Trak Racer T120 triple integrated mounts. I'm grasping at straws at the moment, The Trak Racer mounts aren't compatible but I managed to get the center monitor mounted in an unorthodox way, for the side monitors I ordered two stand alone stands like Aero Veloce is using but I also ordered VESA adapter plates so what ever doesn't work I'll just send back via Amazon.
@@Babyboomer_59how is going with or without g sync? Hdmi or dp?
I'm getting ready to assemble my new triple set up tonight. Really glad to see that you used the same TV stands I decided to buy for my side screens. I knew going in the adjustment ability was less than ideal; hope I have as good of luck as you.
Hey there. After you helped me a lot with your video and your comments, I wanted to give a quick update: as already written, I had operated my Simrig with 3 55 inch LG OLED TVs and therefore had problems with missing HDMI ports / adapters. Since there will probably not be a 4000 NVidia GPU with 3 HDMI 2.1 ports, I sold my LG TVs with a heavy heart and got the AORUS monitors. It was a hell of work to rebuild everything, but I'm more than happy now: 4K120 HDR VRR/Gsync is finally working and I don't have to spend hours in the Nvidia Control Panel or with adapters anymore :D I can also confirm that the ABL isn't a problem at all when simracing - althoug I downsized from triple 55" now to these triple 48", the difference in size is negligable and with the AORUS monitors my setup finally works perfectly.
That’s awesome! Glad to see it worked out for you!
Any issues with Gsync? Just worried these aren't 100% on their compatibility list. I think Aero already told me his have been flawless so I'm pretty confident it'll work well.
@@johnspanos3862 works flawless 👌🏻
I run a Aorus FV43u single and love this monitor, it does it all and looks fantastic at 144hz. Now I want 2 more for a triple setup. Nice review man!
Thank you!
Great overview. Thanks for the insight.
Looks like an amazing setup! Enjoy
I'm impressed with your content ... you have my sub. Love from Canada
Thanks for that video. It help me a lot cause I don’t really know much about it. I have my rig for about 2 years now mostly Fanatec, next level racing and VR G2 which I got quickly enough. I was then waiting for the 4090. So I did put sim aside for a while. I think with those screens I will be back 🙏 THX
I was running 50" Sony X85J TVs for about a year--fried two of them, and decided to get Samsung 49" Ultrawides as the triples. Concerned about the pixels and the aspect ratios, but they're literally on a truck, out for delivery as I stumble onto this video. Never actually created a return while the product is still out for delivery, but this was sucha n easy choice to use as the replacements. Thank you for doing the Lord's work out there...had never even heard of these, for cheaper than I was going to pay for the Samsungs!!!!
Awesome, glad I could help!
They're still not cheap. Unless you make a boatload of money, I guess. Also, the Lord would have been against consumerism to the degree that it is now. :)
Those look great. When I had a sim rig I used a fence board, cut in 3, used 2 door hinges and attached with brackets, then set the 24 in monitors on top of two floor standing speakers with hockey tape underneath for grip. Worked quite well. F10 Klipsch speakers for sizing comparison.
You know I like this guy because he knows his shit. I respect that. Im a geek for monitors too!
Thank you! Very direct to the point and nice video cut between the speech.
Actually I’m doing research for 48inch triple OLED sim racing. Because I dont want LG c2 55inch that is only hdmi. And I found out LG has 48inch OLED model with dp port.
So thanks to your video, I’ll go for it. 🙏🏻
Hi , can you tell me please what lg model is ? With display port/ oled.
Thanks very much

Did you end up getting those? I put 3 of those on Reserve while at Microcenter while I think about it!@@laiklim
Great vid mate, nearly pulled the trigger a few weeks back on these monitors, after watching your vid has stoked my interest in revisiting this option
Cheers again for all the info and honesty 👍
Thats exact the setup I want to switch in 2023 from my 3x32“ setup 👌 thanks for that review mate 👌
I got the same..3 32” curved 1440p. Wanted to switch to two of these as my side monitors and use a 55” oled lg as the center. U think that would look weird ?
@@joeschmoe980 I think this would look weird but maybe it's something you should try and if it's really weird you can always buy 2x55" more ;) let us know what you did maybe with a short video? br philipp
I have triple 48" ultragear oleds, basically the same screens/panels on my rig.. they are fantastic screens.
Bruh - very nice!
Just want to say thanks for this video, it made me finally decide to get three of these monitors for my simrig. Best monitors I have ever tried! I have an Alienware 55", which was great but triple 55" is just too big so I never ended up getting the side screens for that. I tried a 49" Samsung, with a 27" on either side, but that lost out on height.
These really are the perfect setup - colours are even better than the Alienware OLED, easy to use and set up, 3090 gives 3xDP ports for 120hz on all screens, and for Star Citizen or flight sims the proper black levels are amazing. They have really slim bezels, gSync works great, 120hz is a great refreshrate for all my gaming needs.
Only downside is the pixel refresh setup doesn't kick in if you just switch your PC off, you need to actually turn the monitors off with the remote. Thankfully one remote turns all 3 on/off, so no big problem. For burn in all I have done is find a few different triple 4k backgrounds and set them on a rotating slideshow. If I am going to leave the PC for a while I turn the monitors off.
Happy to hear you like them!
You still enjoying them Viking?
@BlkInc1 Loving them, best monitor purchase I've ever made. Perfect for space sims, racing sims, flight sims, any sims really. Currently running them with nVidia Surround on my 4090, works very well indeed.
@@texnorthmanafter 7 months how its going? Any problems ?
Which processor u running on your 4090 setup?
Im waiting till it arrives my triple 48 btw 😂
@@Pedro-fo4et Congrats, you are going to love them! I am still very pleased with my setup. OLED is just amazing for immersion, and the image quality is great. I'm running an AMD 7950x. For any titles with DLSS I've got no problems running 100 ish FPS on the triple 4k resolution, but games that don't have DLSS (like Star Citizen) can be a bit brutal on the hardware.
Still on triple BenQ 3501, no smearing, good contrast (not as good as oled), really good color accuracy, 144hz. Love them.
This is what i was planning to get
Running 3 x 50 inch. Not OLED, but they work quite well and fit my budget. I have a roof on mine, similar to Karl. Can really recommend it.
Awesome work on your setup man thats so much better then the triple 65s for extra fps and the overall size of things and also looks so dam crisp!! i built my first rig last year triple 32s cause i couldnt find a 3090 for a decent price but will be replicating your setup in the near future hopefully. New sub!!
Awesome content! Fundamental research and thorough explanation! Love it! I am struggeling a lot between the 42" and 48". I aslo want use an extension for the wheel. I am not sure if too use:
a) 42" Triple in front of wheel base as low as possible over wheel extension
+ thinner bezel
+ (slightly less weight)
+ higher ppi
+ cockpit size smaller
- price
- Asus only in matte version
b) 48" Aorus directly behind the wheel
+ very cost efficient solution in direct comarison atm
+ more immersion due to lower postion of screen behind wheel base
- concern: FOV and benefit of 48" by using wheel extension
- (older panel version)
- (cockpit size)
If I would use the 42" I would place the screens directly in fornt he wheel base over the extension (minimum 150mm since shortest for Simagic, else I build my own shorter version) of the shaft . Additionally I would use an external DDU and shift the FoV in the vehicle down. This may also reduce the effect of possbile burn-in by not showing the in DDU on screen but on contrary reduce immersion due tom less in car view. Really struggeling here 🙂
Money aside, If could choose again today just concerning the size, which one would you choose for maximum immersion. Still 48"?
Cheers,
Dom
I would still pick 48. I tried measuring to see if a 42 would work in front of the wheel base like you said but it’s still too big to get the center of the screen at my eye line. I get 210 degrees of FOV with my aorus set up so FOV is more than enough. With the 48 behind the wheelbase, the distance is just right enough that PPI isn’t an issue either. I’m also not a fan of the matte coating on my asus 42 I use at my desk.
Hope that helps!
@@AeroVeloce thanks a lot for your feedback! Yes, this helps. I will go 48”. Just need to check for a shorter extension or build an own one. Also my current TR-One wheel deck of the TR160 will limit the lower part of the Front Monitor due to the Profile but there I will also find a solution. Thanks, again!
you sound like a guy who used to work for geek squad ;) great vid man, killer set up!
Haha thank you 👍🏼
I just bought 3 48" 4K OLED LG Monitors - had one for 3 weeks now and just purchased the other 2 today.... Man I cant wait to get them set up.... I finally pulled the trigger on biting the bullet and just going to the end game as well. Previously running triple 32's @ 1440p - This is going to be game changing. Love your build!
I'm in the process of building my rig. What GPU are you going with? I was under the impression that I needed to get a 4090 but he mentioned that he is running a 3090.
@@BBDINC1 I'm currently running a 3080 ti... will upgrade to 4090 if absolutely necessary if not ill wait for 5 thousand series cards to drop end of this year.... but I did leave enough in savings in case it is immediately needed to upgrade GPU.

Great video, would be good too see how you configure the angle of the screens and FOV of this set up for people wantning to know how you configure it, would be a great sorce of information for everyone but cheers really good info and has more or less made my decision to go this route.
so I just downloaded The Sims but I cannot race like this? help?? where is the Sim Race???
Bruh
What?
The Samsung 50" bendable monitor looks like it be pretty good for this purpose.
Great setup. Yes I am always looking to trade in my 27" triples and I have been looking at oled for this size for a while. 3080 is what I have but I would probably spec down to 1440p to keep the FPS constant during a full field of cars. Have a 48c1 for my desktop monitor and now that LG ultragear have one this year and Sony making 48 and 42 there are lots of options. But display port is a must so that narrows it down a bit. No adaptors for me. Take care and see you on the track.
if u can buy à varjo vr head set nothing comes near the expérience you will have
@@gadirigadiri2763 I'm completely torn between simracing via VR and going with triples. The Valve Index seems to be the best all-around choice out there, but people even rip that one :( A triple setup of 43"'s would be expensive.
As I wrote in some other comments here, I'm running a Triple LG 55" OLED Setup and I couldn't agree more with your review. I bought the TVs because in a review Karl Gosling said that the Starlink DP to HDMI Adapters could do Gsync, what is definitely not correct. So I really love my setup, but I really struggle with the point you mentioned: TVs don't have Displayport, GPUs don't have 3 HDMI 2.1 ports. I had to buy a (expensive) Aorus 3080 card with 2 HDMI 2.1, 1 HDMI 2.0 ports and I am limited to 4k@60 RGB or 4k@120 4:2:0. Gsync works with both setups, but running the setup @ 60Hz feels a waste of capability as well as running it with 4:2:0 chroma subsampling. At the moment there is hope that there will be a RTX 4XXX card with 3 HDMI 2.1 ports, otherwise 3 OLED TVs is absolutely not the perfect solution: at the moment I am restricted to AORUS GPUs, because this is the only GPU series with at least 3 HDMI ports and these cards are still way more expensive than GPUs from other manufacturers. I don't want to give up GSync, because as you stated with Triple 4K Setups you typically don't have always high fps and you need the variable refresh rate, otherwise you have to use DP to HDMI Adapters and play @ 60Hz fixed. So in conclusion I have a very very nice setup, but it could be better with Screens with Displayport - I would switch the setup, but I got used to the screen size of the 55" screens and from my experience switching from bigger to smaller screens doesn't satisfy me ;)
I think Alienware makes a 55 inch OLED but around 3x or 5x the price. Hopefully there’s a more reasonable future 55 inch version for you or a capable 4000 series gpu. OLED tech is becoming more affordable and the demand for OLED monitors is increasing. I think we’ll be seeing a lot more options in the future.
Wish I read your post before I went out and bought 3 refurb LG C1 55" from Microcenter yesterday. Lol. I might end up using them as single TVs/monitors for other rigs, and try Aero's recommendation for triples.
@@elmalloc bad timing 😆 the screens are great, it's only the connection issue. Meanwhile I'm happy running them at 4:2:0, I don't see a big quality difference. If you don't have an aorus card with 3 HDMI ports you could use an adapter running the screens @60fps fixed. But yeah, it's not the ideal solution
Nice video! I previously ran (3) 48" LG tvs but got frustrated with the HDMI to Display Port converters. I tried running HDMI 2.1 to center screen and the converters to the sides but there was a noticeable lag between the screens. Eventually had to lower resolution (and upscale picture) to get it to work smoothly and recently moved back to 32" 1440p, 165Hz curved gaming monitors. Plan to try again when Nvidia 4090 launches and got my eye on some new triple monitors like the Alienware curved QD-Oled 34" 3440x1440 175Hz.
Sorry to hear you had so much trouble with the lgs. The Alienware UW is really nice. Only downside is you’re gonna have really wide and narrow screens pushed far out on the sides so you’ll have really narrow vision in comparison. May not be an issue for you but something to think about!
@@AeroVeloce yeah hoping that is just the start of new QD OLEDs that are on the way as I agree and would really prefer a 16:9 version. Kinda like the 32” to 42” range so I can “tie” it to my current rig. When I had the next level triple stand for the 48” tvsI didn’t care for the legs on the sides which always got in my way.
@@drvegas8485 A 32 inch 4k high refresh rate option would be pretty cool. I can see those stand legs getting in the way being frustrating for sure.
You use adaptor or cable dp/hdmi 8k 60hz/4k 120hz? I buy that cable and will test tommorow.
This 48" setup really would be perfect for the size. They aren't much pricer than TV's either. Mine is a little bigger using 55's 120hz tv panels. For anyone on TV's, adapters are now 8k 60hz and 4k/120 for the dpi ports....so if you're running a 4k setup you can get over the 60hz bottleneck at 11520x2160 (depending on your gpu obviously). Really at this point either solution would work well though. Highly recommend a 4090 if you're 4k though, otherwise just downscale it to 1440 and it will still look great. Happy racing all. :)
Which adapters are you using and is gsync available?
Which adapters? Thanks
Excellent vid Aero! Very insightful and I too bought 3 of these beauties! I have them mounted to a triple monitor stand, downside of my stand is there is very little adjustment to level all 3 screens. When you aligned your monitors did you place each bezel edge to edge or left and right monitor bezels slightly behind the centre monitor? Thanks for the vid!
Thank you! I put the monitor slightly behind the center monitor edge so there’s only the thickness of one bezel.
Tmac after 1 year, how the monitor is gringo? Any problems or tips/advice?
I Just bought 3 of these, waiting to recive
Thank you for your video on the display port switch, that’s going to come in very handy . My PC will be about the same distance away from my rig as yours. What did you do for extensions for the USB and the video? Thank you!
would really love to see a Rig tour
I have an older one on my channel. A lot of stuff has changed though and will be changing soon so maybe I’ll make a new one.
I really wish there was a 42” oled monitor ( not tv ) option . I’m running a single 48” oled for sim racing and it feel just a hair to big. I want to switch to triples but can’t find a specific monitor that I like. Great vid by the way love the rig
Thank you very much for your video. May I ask what is the best angle to set up your triple monitors or at least share your experience with difference angles? because I do have the same Aorus Fo48u
great setup mate! may I ask the foot print of the whole rig? especially how wide is the triple screen ?
Could you share what the footprint/space needed for your setup is? Love it, thank you!
Great setup man, looking to use it. Do you mind measuring how wide the entire setup runs? No worries if can't get around to it, I can ballpark based off of monitor size. Thanks
Thanks! It’s about 71 inches wide.
Thanks for the Video.
I'm considering these for my triple set up , but wondering if a tad too big. So also considering AORUS FV43U, have you any experience with this monitor, or if you were to go one size smaller what would you choose?
I also considered Odyssey Neo G7 Curved QLED monitors (S32BG75) ...
Whatever I end up with, never going back to anything less than 40cm in screen height...
FV43U is gonna have less picture quality compared to FO48U due to the VA panel. You could do the ASUS Pg42UQ if you wanted something slightly smaller at 42 inches but they are pricier.
Samsung monitors are a popular option for people running 32 inch screens.
I would like to see some iracing nascar videos with arca , xfinity and cup cars.
I’m really keen on getting these, they look incredible but not sure if they will fit within the available room space I have. Could I ask what sort of width the monitors are taking up in total?
Great video, made me decide to go for monitors instead of LG TV's. What FPS are you getting in ACC now you changed to the 40 series card?
I’ve got videos that go over the benchmarks for more detail but around 100 fps if I remember correctly with cars on the grid
Ghansk for a great and honest sharing of your rig! I’m looking into getting these monitors but I have a pretty small room for my rig. I’m wondering at what angle from the center monitor do you have your left and right monitor? 😊
Hey sorry I didn't see this sooner! I run 70 degrees on my side monitors.
Thanks 🙏 Another question, how much space does your rig take? 3x2m?
@@BlessJahLove Yea I would say that's about right maybe just a little bit more than that to be safe.
Thanks for the video. Funny thing is I was doing tons of research trying to find a solution exactly like your suggesting. For some reason this monitor never showed up because I was searching specifically for gsync monitors and this one technically isn’t listed as gsync compatible.
So just to confirm they haven’t changed this monitor or something and it actually is gsync compatible?
I guess that raises the interesting question in my mind of how many monitors are out there that are gsync compatible but aren’t advertised as such.
Yes, G-Sync works perfectly fine with these monitors.
personal use a G9 49" .. its suficient for a fast driving/ imersion ... but your setup is fantastik... great job !!
Thank you!
Thanks for the video and helpful information. What is the 32 in equivalent to the Aorus Fo48u you would recommend? Also are there any other Oleds that are comparable? Thanks
Great setup. I am planning the same. May I ask why the Next Level Racing freestanding monitor stand does not suit this setup? From their specs it should work? I would like my monitor stand to match my rig.
Thanks! It does work but I prefer the adjustability of an aluminum extrusion monitor mount. Gives a lot more freedom of what you can do. Working on getting a video on that soon.
Great video! You got a new subscriber :)
I'm really curious on what you think of the new Samsung Odyssey Ark. Do you think it could be one of the best options for triples on a high budget? Any plans on trying them? Would love to hear your thoughts on it!
I think it potentially could be a great option for a high budget. The extreme curve looks really cool but I wonder if it causes distortion to the FOV when that extreme. My other guess is you wouldn’t be able to run a bezel free solution due to the shape, although bezels haven’t bugged me personally. I’d love to try it if the opportunity arises.
And thanks for subscribing!
Great Setup! I am thinking about 48" Triple, but i don't know if there is enough space...
Can you tell me the dimensions of the setup? Width of the TVs, how high they are and the total length of the setup? Television 120 degree angle?
Thank you!
Fantastic setup, and clearly you've been very thorough with your research all around. Have you had any issues with G-Sync on these? I've read that people have had issues running these as triples and trying to use G-Sync (something about monitor not being listed as G-Sync compatible within Nvidia Surround app), which is why I am currently leaning towards the LG 48GQ900-B since they supposedly have more reliable G-Sync support (and less annoying pixel refresh schedule).
No issues with gsync personally and you don’t need to use surround. It’s terrible anyways. LGs are a solid choice too.
@@AeroVeloce Do you enjoy the triples more than VR? Just curious given you have the hardware to run both with good settings. I'm trying to determine if the triple OLEDs would be more enjoyable overall than my HP Reverb G2.
@@Boarderdude215 I prefer triples. Can’t beat the FOV and the comfort of not wearing the headset imo. But vr is great too.
A year later, which monitors would you get if you were going triple?
Looking at jumping to the 48” ultra gears. Curious if you have made the jump up to the 4090 yet and what improvements you have seen and what type of graphics settings you run in acc?
Great video
Check out some of my benchmark videos. I show what performance you can expect with a 4090. I run max graphics with dlss quality on acc and it runs pretty well.
Awesome. I’ll check that out
Lg 42 OLED comes with HDMI 2.1 and G since 120 Hz so no need display port to run g since
hi, you made me want a 48" triple screen. The support is ready, I'm waiting for the screens. How far are you from the screen and how much angle for the screens? thank you very much
30 inches and 70 degrees
Maybe I just didn't understood this topic correct: is there any way to get rid of these burn in protection popups? Do they only occur if you switch the screens completely off or will there be always those popups from time to time? Thanks for your effort 👍🏻
If you turn them off with the remote every time you use them or after a couple of times of use. You’ll never see them. I also recommend updating their firmware. I think that helps too.
Great video bro. I currently have a 55” oled lg. was thinking of adding two of these aorus as the side monitors. The difference in height from the lg and aorus is about 3.75 inches. U think I could make that work and line things up with nvidia surround ? Or the almost 4” height difference would look weird ?
Thank you! I think you’d be creating a headache trying to do it that way personally. The sizing wouldn’t match from screen to screen.
Loving the setup. I'm looking at next stage upgrades right now and I found your vid. I've currently got one LG 48CX OLED I am using between PC and PS5. I was thinking to go triples but a 27 or 32 would not really be playable with PS5 and consoles don't do ultrawide. So, I think I am going 3 x 48in. And this is where your vid came in! I saw another comment where you mentioned the LG Ultragear. I can source two pretty cheap under MSRP. In your experience of OLED and the monitors, do you think I need to ditch the 48in CX and go with 3x LG Ultragear or can I get away with he CX in the setup? Hoping you see this :) Cheers.
You could probably get away with just two ultra gears but they’re gonna look slightly different due to matte vs gloss coating. It’ll depend on whether or not that bugs you.
@@AeroVeloce thanks for the speedy reply and good point. It's already bugging me 😂 Time to fatten up the piggy bank. Cheers dude.
Hi bud,
I'm at the decision point looking at 32" x 3 as my choice, , but a obstacle has come up when I actually started looking for monitors....
where i live 32" 144hz IPS is just crazy expensive....
So i have 2 Options for my Triple Screen Sim Racing setup.....
32" 1440p 75hz IPS vs 32" 1440p 144z VA
(both options above are priced very close)
Is the Black Smearing & Viewing Angles of VA panels a problem/issue for Sim Racing?
Should i go with 75hz IPS or 144hz VA....?
Thanks
(5600x/3080fe)
I would go for the 144hz VA over the IPS for the frame rate. Some people are more sensitive than others when it comes to black smearing. I’d say don’t go looking for it and you might never know. Just enjoy them and race.
Love these videos man, I have a 48LG and thinking about getting 2 of these Aorus monitors. They say they are AMD Free sync but still work with Gsync? Any tips on getting Gsync work or is it just plug and play? Also do you think I'll have full gsync if I have 1 LG 48 on HDMI and 2 of these at DP on a 3080Ti? Thanks.
Yes they work with gsync. Just have to enable in nvidia control panel. I believe that should work though. I’d imagine the only thing that wouldn’t work is nvidia surround but I never use that personally.
@@AeroVeloce oh you don't need Nvidia surround for iRacing triple setup? You can leave them as individual monitors with individual desktops?
@@DigitalZombie90 yes, much better that way too
I find it funny that people talk about 144hz monitors/tv but when you are running triple 4Ks in surround mode you will not be getting anywhere near 144hz unless your graphic settings are on the low end but at that point it is not worth it since it will look like crap. I run my 3 TCL 4K tvs in surround mode at 7500 x 5840 with a i12900K and RTX 3090 and get about 60 fps in AC using content manager and settings at max.
Might want to watch my 4090 benchmark videos to see what’s possible. Performance is great albeit at a price for sure.
Can you please tell me what is the width of the 3 monitors at the widest point? And the depth as well please? I am trying to work out if it would fit on my desk. Thanks
About 42 inches deep and 74 inches wide.
Thanks for this video man, great explanation of why I shouldn't have gotten the C1s, argh! lol. I want GSYNC. I see these are $999 on amazon, the 43" are only $650. I might wait for the 48" to come down in price. These were recently released, right? You mentioned they dropped once to $800 or so. Would be a steal. I paid $900 for each of the 55" C1s.
I think ASUS has a 48" monitor that also came out recently also that has a fan to prevent OLED burn-in and can get brighter (?).
I have 4 GT1EVOs that I might use a single 55" LG C1 on since they can each get a single HDMI 2.1 connection. I planned to use the P1X with a triple setup, thinking I'll go with the monitors you're using. Did you ever consider "open environment" setup? Where they use triple projectors instead of triple monitors? I guess we have the same problem since no projector has display port AFAIK.
The Aorus is a C1 panel but in monitor form. The 43 inch aorus is a VA panel I believe. I’ve seen the Aorus 48 inch go on sale several times recently so if you keep a look out, you might be able to get a deal.
The ASUS I wanna say is newer and based off the C2 but doesn’t seem to be available yet? I can’t seem to find it in stock.
I’m not a huge fan of projectors. There are cool possibilities with them like a large seamless curved screen. But the picture quality, response time, refresh rate, and feature set compared to an OLED has made me less interested in that route.
@@AeroVeloce Yes, that large seamless screen looks amazing in pictures. I just saw slickdeals post a deal for the Auros 48" that brought it down $200 (instant coupon) and another $200 from gigabyte's rebate for $600. It's back ordered though and 600 people have it in their cart, lol! It's in my cart right now for $2400 (gigabyte rebates not withstanding). Not sure if I should do backorder, NewEgg is definitely one to cancel your order later on with any reason they want lol.
@@elmalloc Wow that’s a great deal. I don’t know how long you’d be waiting but that would be awesome if you can get them at that price.
@@AeroVeloce It looks like it might arrive and ship out after 3 days or so (ETA 9/21) but the $200 instant coupon per monitor will expire today. Watching some other videos on this monitor they complained about the ABL being aggressive. Have you noticed the picture dimming or ABL while racing? I'm wondering if the ABL will be noticeable when flying because sometimes it's just a bright sky ahead of you lol. Thanks!
@@elmalloc ABL hasn’t been an issue while racing at all for me. I only notice it when opening large white webpages. If I was using this as a desk monitor it would be annoying but it’s a non issue for racing.
Hello, I run gsync too in sims, but do you acrivate vsync in the same time or just gsync ?
Just g sync as vsync adds a lot of input lag
Grats for the sim! A question: what's the distance between your eyes and the middle of the center screen?
Thanks! 30 inches
And the angles between screens, 120 degrees?
@@fabianoleiras1293 110, or 70 depending on which side you’re looking at.
Great set up... VR is the future of sim racing...wen we get lighter headsets, crystal clear resolution also the hardware to run them properly...
Thank you, VR is awesome but definitely has a long way to go still. Looking forward to a bright future though!
@@AeroVeloce I don’t think it has as long way to go.. i run triples and a Varjo Aero VR, it’s mainly Gpu holding back potential of VR, with the new 4000 series incoming next couple months will be able to run Varjo at max settings, which is pretty much 4K monitor quality but infinite 3D depth 🤷♂️
@@SURG3NT how’s the FOV? My favorite part of triples is being able to battle cars side by side and see them easily in my peripheral vision. I have heard the picture quality on that headset is amazing.
@@AeroVeloce yes the FOV I’d say is a slight bit better than HP reverb G2, the picture quality is excellent as it uses mini LED lenses so it’s more close to OLED than LCD monitors, for me I just find positioning in VR so much easier in terms of judging distance between cars, maybe that’s jus down to I’ve used VR more.. I currently run triple 32s too but I have a single 48 Oled too, after watching this vid I’m tempted lol! It’s an expensive investment tho.
@@SURG3NT sounds excellent, I’d love to give that headset a go one day. Love my valve index but I triples is definitely what I prefer for now.
Hi from Austria and many thanks for your video, very helpful 😉👍.
What stand would you recommend ?????
Thanks 🙏
I’m working on building a “custom” monitor stand since there’s not many that work for this set up. The cheapest option would be the next level racing stand and the most expensive one I’ve seen is advanced sim racing’s up to 65 inch triple monitor mount. I’m working on something that would be in between but if everything works out, would be better than both.
I’m hoping to have a video out about it within a week since the parts arrive tomorrow.
@@AeroVeloce sounds great 😉👍 Good luck 💪
Sorry, last question 😉.
Ordered three single stand from Simlab….. Which vesa mount do you use ????
Thanks mate….👍👍👍
@@SvenKitz I use the vesa mounts from track racer
Can you comment on the overall width and depth of your entire setup? I was considering this exact setup when I found your video but have a slightly small play area
6 feet deep by 7 feet wide roughly
@@AeroVeloce When driving on the left hand drive car and looking towards the right, does the depth of field of the dash moving away from you blend well (not just the lines but the actual feeling) or do you really notice that it is being displayed on flat screen at an angle? Its really my only concern for triples vs. VR because while it looks seamless to me, I'm watching on a 2d video on a 2d screen, but you are there in 3d world. Hopefully that makes sense?
@@DarkDMD when you’re focused on the driving, the amount of screen surrounding you and the FOV immerses you where you’re not really thinking about it. It’s 2D but the perspective is proper so it sells it pretty well.
@@AeroVeloce THanks again! Now i just have to figure out how to fit 7 feet of monitors into 5 feet of space!
Couldnt you get the LG OLED and get the cords that are HDMI at one end and Display port at the other to plug into the PC without a converter box to distort the framing?
That’s still converting the signal which runs into the same problems.
@@AeroVeloce makes sense
I was wondering what if the front screen was curved and the sides were flat ? Would that be better or worse ?
I’m actually going to be getting these same exact monitors for my triple screen setup. Still no issues??
Still good!
Hi. How annoying is the glare? Can see the left monitor reflecting in the center monitor. And what about face / room reflections?
You can notice some glare from the side monitors but when racing you don’t really notice it at all.
You can run 11520x2160? - is the res widely supported in sim racing games? Do you need to drop to 1440p for some games?
Yes, works the same as any other triple screen set up. I don’t drop to 1440p at all with a 4090.
Hey. Great video. Why dont you use a bezel free kit?
I had it at one point set up. Moved the rig and never bothered to set it up again. The bezels are so small, I really don’t notice them.
Still happy with these monitors? I wonder about the in game HUD from most sims causing burn in? I want full immersion and not sure what to do...32-48 seems like a good size range for immersion
Yea still love them, no issues with burn in.
Hey is it possible for a Rig tour
hi, how large is the setup with triple 48‘ ?
Tell me please, what's the distance between the wheelbase mounting uprights and central display? And what is the angle between central and side displays?
9 inches from front of uprights although this would be different depending on your rig. Side monitors are at 70 degrees
@@AeroVeloce What's the distance from the floor to the bottom of the monitor?
@@Clubturbo_tuning my measurement wouldn’t matter for that. It has to be dialed in to for your eyes. Center of the screen should line up directly with your eyes when in driving position.
Measure from your eyes to the ground when seated and that will be where the center of your screen should be.
@@AeroVeloce excellent work Aero!! Well done bro! You help us all so much sharing those videos of yr rig! I have SFX 150 which give a pretty good motion. Now with 32" 144hz VA panels and a Varjo Aero VR headset, which is an excellent headset. I am flirting with the idea to change the 32" but i have the impression that I would need more than 9 inches (22cm) from the uprights (actually from the back of my Fanatec steering wheel) to have monitors safely behind the rig and do not break em during largeeee jumps in DR2...dunno....whats your opinion? Cos here understand your experience is on a static rig without motion....or am am I wrong...pls correct me if I am ....thanks again buddy...👊😎 (greetings from Greece)
@@Passajero Thanks for the kind words! Yes you would want more space between your monitors. But I’m running 210 degrees of FOV, so you can move the rig back a few inches for clearance and easily get 180 degrees or more still.
Really good video. I subscribed to your channel. Will 3 lg c2 48 inch work on a rtx 3090 with a display port to hdmi 2.1 adaptor that does 4k 120hz and allows g sync/free sync and bypass vrr ? So maybe have one of the c2 connect to the hdmi 2.1 and the other 2 connect to the display port to hdmi 2.1?
Thanks for subscribing! You’ll run into all the complications with the C2 and using adapters so for that reason I wouldn’t recommend it. You won’t be able to run gysnc on all 3 screens and it may become more of a headache than an enjoyable experience.
@@AeroVeloce thank you ,what do you recommend that's the best option for around 4k 120hz ?
@@mitzthegamer the monitors I’m using here are the aorus fo48u if you want an OLED 4K 120hz monitor at this size. If you want something else just make sure they have DisplayPort and gsync/freesync in the size, panel type, and refresh rate you want. I don’t recommend using TVs.
@@AeroVeloce is the quality the same or better than the lg c2 ?
@@mitzthegamer C2 is a generation newer but the improvements were pretty minimal. The improvements wouldn’t benefit simracing as much as movie watching for example.
I had to smile when realizing how much you stress on the great image quallity of OLED - but we re sim racers - we play games with 2002 GFX xD
hi, i bought 3 TV oled evo 48" for simracing and i got a lot of trouble because they don't have a DP, but only hdm1. The one with HDMI cable work so well but the other 2 that have DP 1.4 to HDMI 2.1 a lot of time they when i restart pc they have the "no signal" error so i have to play with graphics and\or disconnect
econnect cable to see all of them again. For now i have problem with nvidia surround too. Sometime the 2 monitor on side on 120hz got a black sreen.
Are you using DP to all of them? Are you getting 120hz on triple with nvidia surround? Did you ever get some error like the one i said?
thx a lot for the reply
I have everything running on DisplayPort now and have no issues. The issues you’re running into are why I recommended monitors over tv’s for this use case. Adapters can be very finicky.
You have set the surround 11520x2160p@120hz? Its is possible using a 3080 or 4090 where the max resolution is 8k@60? I cant set 12k@120hz, my cables and my monitors suport 4k@120hz, i'm using 3080.
I use SRWE app instead of surround. But you should still be able to set it to 11520x2160 at 120hz if they’re all on DisplayPort.
I've had to return TWO (2) Samsung G9s. They are total rubbish. One blew up after heaps of picture issues, the other had the same issues making me need to turn them off and on to reboot them, making me lose races etc.
Have you had any issues with these monitors flickering or they just simply do not turn on when the PC turns on?
I have not
Unfortunately, I.don't.have the room forma.full.rig, so I have triple 24" on my.desk (and that is pushing limits). My wheel stand slides nicely under the desk to where my wheel base is right up.against it. But I eventually want to go to a full rig, but that won't happen until one of our kids move out and I can take over a complete room.
Thinking of getting these monitors how are you enjoying them have triple 32s at the mo
Still awesome!
@AeroVeloce been trying to decide between this monitor the lg ultra or the rog heads spinning it's a big investment lol
Hello mate, wondering what your thoughts on these monitor's are now?
Any issues? Regret?
I am looking at them for the exact same application as you. I just fear that pop up will display while im in endurance races.
What's your experience?
Still love them. The pop up isn’t really a problem. If I do an endurance race I’ll power cycle beforehand so I know it won’t come up.
I’d say the only downside is they are tough to run particularly in race starts in iRacing so I tend to lose fps until it clears out a bit.
@@AeroVeloce even with a 4090?!
@@johnspanos3862 after getting the 7950x3D and adjusting some settings, it’s pretty solid now.
Bit of an odd request, but if you find the time would you be able to measure the footprint of your setup? Basically just a rough L×W, cheers!
60x110 is about the total footprint.
@@AeroVeloce awesome, thank you so much!
Man i cannot believe i havent come across your channel earlier. So i have a Valve index, DD1, same wheel pedals etc LOL but running a samsung G9 on the sim. Now changing to a triple screen setup.
Tell me how am i wiring up the triples and a desktop ultrawide monitor AND VR without unplugging and replugging cables into my 3090 everytime (surely this will kill the port after a while) Are you running a switch of some sort that does the highter res and also GSync etc?
I am so kicking myself as i wanted to buy The F048s as well but i cant fit them into the corner where the couch is. So now im going to have to get 32s and doing research for models. They are so cheap atm in sydney i can get the F048u for $990AUD so like $650USD and i have to settle for rubbish IPS in comparison. (I know first world problems, it just hurts to know OLED is just there at the same price and i cant use it.
So how are you connecting the triples and VR and a Desktop monitor i presume? my 3090 only has 3x DP and 1 HDMI.
Also one more question, the reason im changing from the G9 to triples is the g9 is just very narrow vertically and even up close i cant see the dash and the road.
Will 32s be better off behind the DD1? or too far for 32s? or closer and i put them right up against the wheel between the base. I just wanted the dash to be realistally behind the wheel like the a real car. (ive been driving in VR for 2 years and struggling to use a monitor so want to set the best i can. (flat is so hard to get used to now)
Man I have almost all the same gear like you so just wanted to get a little bit of help and i plan EVERYTHING before buying and im struggling for a clean all wired setup without plugging in out out stuff everytime i want to change from triples to VR.
Thank you for your time and keep up the awesome vids.
Subed for life lol
Thanks for subbing! A lot of the questions you’ve asked are things I plan on talking in future videos. It can get really technical for all the details but a quick run down is I do use a switch that allows me to still run g-sync. I’ll try and get a video out as soon as possible on managing all the screens + vr + a desk set up as well. If you want to use the in car dash with a dd1 and not be obstructed by the wheelbase, the monitor in between the wheelbase and the steering wheel is the best way to go. An important thing to measure in that case is that the center of the screen is gonna be in line with your eyes otherwise the transitions from screen to screen will be completely off. For me that meant 27 inch screens were better than 32’s while also being much sharper due to pixel density.
@@AeroVeloce Thanks for the reply man. I appreciate it alot. i know i asked alot LOL. Are you able to at least get the model number of the Swtich as it seems to work for you and there is so many online and alot not working correctly.
Thanks again.
@@racecrashrepeat it’s a Display port 1.4 bi-directional switch made by BolAAzuL on Amazon (there’s a lot of companies with the same switch). I use two of them to switch between two of the aorus monitors to my two desk monitors. I honestly don’t use my VR very much since getting triples so I’ve yet to try it on the switch but I will tomorrow. The cable quality and length are very important though since it can cause flickering issues on the monitor. My oleds didn’t have issues but my desk screens did when using 10ft cables on top of the switch.
@@AeroVeloce you Sir are an absolute legend. Thank you so much for the help. I am so jealous of the oleds. Congrats of what I would call the PEFECT setup.
Please get those videos up of the setup configurations as I presume there is more of us around throwing ALOT of money into this and not wanting to pay twice which I'm doing with the g9 to triples lol. Research is key
@@racecrashrepeat took me a while to make but the videos on how I run and switch between all the screens is out now. Completely changed my set up and made it more optimized as well as fixing some issues I still had thanks to your comment. But everything is better than ever. 👍🏼
