I started out with 3 screens, then went to 5 screens portrait, like the image but that only shows 3.

Then I went with projectors.

After all my testing and experiments over the years Occulus is the winner..
 
@Ghetto: How are you finding the OR in terms of resolution etc compared to the other setups you have used? I also wonder how it will work with Digital Combat Simulator (which is where I spend the most gaming time) since there are a lot of button and switches to use...

With some pics of the chair I built for Elite Dangerous
Sorry about the mess, been too busy playing.

The first pic is before I got around to putting the pedal "rest" on. I also made an adapter so I can play driving sims using a standard steering wheel.

The wheel is turning. A day will come ...
Yeah, I'm planning on taking in my computer and buying a graphics card this weekend. I'm playing with integrated graphics and am lucky to hit 25 FPS on low settings :(.
Also gonna buy the cheapest HOTAS and Mic for voice attack I can afford. Does anyone know if voice attack can take out the need to access side panels (which I don't think the cheapest thrustmaster can do)?
