I did not use a enclosure, its the racing frame sorrounded by speakers 2 in back & 6 up front. I hooked the ones in the back to the frame, the front speakers I mounted on the wall using raceway. Plus I wall mounted the lcd at racing level. I will post some pics pretty quick thanks dm |

Divemaster: Yours sounds like *exactly* what I've got in mind to build. Right down to the display and the CPU. Although I'd rather go with an enclosure than the Playseats tube frame. Just a personal preference. Any pictures you have would be great! |

Yah, i wanted the enclosure but I already have $1,400.00 invested so i decided to stop maybe I can add on later, i will get some pics dm |

I'm wrestling with that myself right now. I've got the wheel and the seat. No display and no CPU powerful enough for some of the PC-based driving sims. So I figure I'd end up dropping about $500-$800 on a CPU build, plus another $500 on the display. So I'd be right up there with you. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you spend on the display and CPU? What display are you using? |

I get my TV's free from the military its part of my bonus package...I did a lot of research before I picked out my 32" lcd its a olevia 32 inch, bottom fired speakers contract of 3000:1, & 4 ms. On any lcd tv you want to use for gaming display make sure the contract is at least 1000:1 & the ms is 5 or under. This is also a tunerless model but for gaming or hooking to cable/sat who cares. You can get for $399.00 to $499.00 & the picture is awesome for racing. I got a parents a 37" same tv for $499.00 they use it for their main tv great picture. On the computer q6600 dual core, 4 gig ram(newegg.com $56.00 for 2 gig), & 8800GT video(right now the best card on the market for the price & faster than the 8800GTS dm |
