It was my first wheel and I bought it at 160 at GameStop and I am just blown away . The pedals are made of plastic which doesn ' t bother me but keep it in mind . There ' s also no clutch pedal but that ' s the only drawbacks I could even think of . If you want to get into simracing this wheel is pretty much perfect . If you ' re already pretty good at simracing you might have some demands and expectations this wheel might not satisfy . <| sep |> How many crates for the loopers ? <| sep |> I mean it ' s not necessary . I ' m using a M . 2 SATA SSD and 6 gigabitssec has been more than fine so far . I ' m fairly sure RAM will be a more pertinent upgrade if it ' s low in capacity or frequency right now . Of course , if you ' ve got money to spare and you like having technology several years ahead of when you ' ll need it , go ahead . It ' s your computer , may as well treat yourself .
