Power Steering is bad for drifting Ono... It'll improve your drifting if you take it off

Could you explain how is it bad for drifting?

You can't feel the car's reactions through the wheel, it doesn't countersteer, it doesn't replicate a real car (happy now driftz?), etc..

iNs3CuRe · Mar 1, 2012

I personally can feel the car's reactions and it does countersteer.

EDIT: I took Jn's idea and I have extended my pedals :rolleyes:

The extensions feel really good, but the spring have lost all there power. I will need to do that at some point. I also need to re work my cockpit, because right now in my normal position, my knees hurt. And when I move back, I have to extend my arms to the full to reach the wheel. Also need to put my E36 gear knob back on, and Im planning to get an aftermarket wheel in the future. 👍

Powersteering feels like **** in this game..

Zed must be self conscious about his high pitched Indian accent.

I am probably going to dim down the cpu and psu to a combo 2.9 with a corsair 500watt for 129$.

What do you mean cheaper?

fastfox400 · Mar 2, 2012

I'm running a similar setup for around $450. With a overclocked Intel i5 at 3.6ghz..

zedfonsie · Mar 2, 2012

How? Whats the complete specs on your computer?

(reason why mine cost a lot is cause I am trying to use quality parts (staying away from stuff like biostar and other generic brands).

fastfox400 · Mar 2, 2012

I bought Dell Optiplex from a off-leasing company. It had a Intel i5-2400 along with other things. It cost $275. I took a case that was watercooled that I had previously built years ago and bought a new 680watt power supply. It was about $125. Once everything was up an running I was able to play Unreal tournament at 75fps. Which is fine for gaming. I decided to go a lil further with the video and bought a XFX HD-687X-CNFC. Now Im running close to 130fps with the same monitor.

zedfonsie · Mar 2, 2012

FUUUUUU

Well your computer consists of parts from a computer for cheap.

If I could afford it, or I save some money up, I want to get a gtx 550ti so I can play bf3 on my pc or iracing and stuff..

P.S I don't trust XFX, not a big fan of there products..

fastfox400 · Mar 2, 2012

I had a XFX long before. Just FYI XFX uses the same ATI harware as Sapphires.

zedfonsie · Mar 2, 2012

All companies use the same hardware.. But its about build quality. The only companies I truly trust is asus (no brainer) lenovo, intel, seasonic and corsair, and for cases I trust coolermaster. (I would never trust a coolermaster psu though)

What happened to the White Smoke Gang thread?

iNs3CuRe · Mar 2, 2012

e_dub64 · Mar 2, 2012

I'd feel like such a dork explaining to people how I'm serious about a video game haha. I have no problem with it but its easy for people to think you're some sort of shut-in, which is out of proportion.
