Time to do some time wasting for the long 8kX wait
I know you guys are hiding alot of cool setups and VR equipment out there, so let’s see em
I’ll start, here’s my (Oldschool Powemac G5 mod)
i7-3770K @ 4.6Ghz
32GB RAM
Inno3D GTX 1080Ti
A bunchload of SSD’s 2 of them M.2 in Pci-E adapters
Just added a Pci-E USB3 card with 2A outputs, 8A in total (for the new 8kX)
All H20 cooled in a full custom loop
34" Asus ROG Swift PG348Q 100Hz G-Sync “Pancake screen”
Logitech G27 with H-Shifter and Pedals
Pimax 5K+
Valve Index Controllers
2 Valve LH’s
Lighthouses and PSU for Pimax 5K+ is attached to a Philips Hue Smartplug, that I can turn ON/OFF from a “smart tile” in the StartMenu.
Just need to make a frame for the G27 for the chair as well.

aka. “What do you mean? I rounded to a reckless only four decimals - four! - I can’t work with this sort of lack of precision!” @jojon Thanks
I’ve got a decent setup, but it’s not particularly cool (so no pics):
i7-8700K (6 cores / 12 threads) 3.7 GHz, 32 GB DDR4 3600 ram
MSI RTX 2080 Gaming X Trio (factory overclocked)
3 TB SSDs + 7 TB hard drives for backup
ASUS MG28UQ 28" 4K FreeSync gaming monitor
1 Base station
8K, soon to be replaced with an 8KX
Logitech G25 steering wheel, shifter, and pedals
Logitech X52 HOTAS with MonsterTech quick release chair mounts (which cost significantly more than the HOTAS!): https://www.monstertech.de/en/product-category/flight-en/chair/
I really like the MonsterTech mounts. They also have table mounts and sim rigs of high quality (German) which are very sturdy.
i5-4690k@4.5Ghz
16Gb of ram
GTX 1080.
SSD for sys and games.
HDD for storage.
x52pro hotas+proflight pedals+passenr seat out of a Golf Mk2 with shakers mounted for Elite Dangerous
I built this machine back in early 2015 when i started playing Elite using a diy IR head tracking trig, 8gb of ram and a radeon 5850.
Upgraded to oculus dk2 in mid 2015.
Vive on release day in 2016.
16gb of ram and 1080 in preparation for Fallout 4 VR.
Got my pimax 5k+ in early 2019.
My play space is 3.6x2.4 meters with foam mats laid down for dampening.
I built a system around an A4-SFX case to have a portable, reasonably fast and upgradable system. These have the size of an external GPU but can house the entire PC (https://www.dan-cases.com)
Hardware has to be specifically chosen to keep noise under control and to fit. E.g. the GPU can only be 2 slots (2.5 slots for the new version) wide, and only smaller CPU coolers (or quite small AIOs) fit.
Running a 65W Ryzen 1700 CPU and a reference design, slightly undervolted GTX 1080 TI.
The system is unhearable in idle and not disturbing under load.
8086k @ 5.2 ghz, Phantek glacier cpu waterblock, Asus rog Maximus XI Formula MB, 64gb ddr4 3200, 1200 Corsair PSU, RTX 2080ti with EK waterblock. Clocked to 2100 MHz. 480 basement rad on push pull fan. 480 rad along the top and 360 rad in the front.

OC’ing is an art so many variables to tweak to get it running just right. Even undervolting sometimes help attain a faster speed, even with proper H2O cooling
I love the challenge no such thing as running stock settings
