DigTraditional3992, posted 6 hours ago. Title: “Simracing is a weird hobby. simulator.” Body text reads: “I started AC sim racing in July 25. over these 7 months. Instead of learning driving and racing. I learnt fps, factors affecting fps, role of cpu, gpu, how DD is better than gear wheel, VR headset and what affects its frame time and hours of endless tweaking, Reddit posts, YouTube videos. Now I ended up building a full fledged pc on my own.. I wanted to learn sim racing but I ended up learning building a simulator.” The post shows 47 upvotes and 31 comments.
