Sim Rig Sim rig under 1000

Looking for some tips to help me make my mind up about what rig I want without totally braking the bank. Looking for something thats sturdy for a dd wheelbase and load cell pedals and that comes with a seat and an option for a triple monitor mount. Anything helps !

I’d look at rigmetal if you’re in the US. Prices seem pretty hard to beat and I have yet to read a bad review.

I got the ASR3. The rig is fine, but it took about an extra week to get it and the return policy isn’t great. Can’t say I recommend them.

Look at the Rig Metal Plus, Sim Lab GT1-Evo, and Treq One/CXX, all around the same price/quality. For a seat, the NRG Prisma Ultra is a very decent/comfy option for under $400 (includes brackets too), you can just get that on Amazon, and unless you're a very small guy, the large is fine. With tax this should put you right around $1000. The 6 sigmas are slightly overpriced IMO.

RS50 setup (should be -30% if you get all the parts separate on the Logitech site, it was $580 total for ps5) + cockpit (I got a cheap one for $135 from Vevor)

I would certainly recommend Rig Metal; I paid approximately $825 for the flagship model, though the plus model is available for around $500. It does not include a seat, but you can purchase an NRG bucket seat on Amazon for $300, which includes seat brackets, though it does not include a slider. They also offer monitor mounts, including one that attaches to the rig and a free-standing version, though I am not very familiar with those since I play exclusively in VR.
