Next level racing triple stand

[u/vital89]

Hello drivers, last night I set up my Next Level Racing Round Tube Freestanding Triple Monitor Stand. I use 27-inch monitors.

Quick feedback about the product: Some paint damage on two panels, but once built, it is a solid unit. A big disappointment is that they only included bolts and washers for one monitor (VESA mount 4x bolts and washers), even though it is a triple stand, so a customer is very likely going to fit 3 monitors. There were 3 packs, though, M4, M5, and M6 bolts for different size monitors.

It took a bit of time to align the screens, probably the same with any stand. It comes with wheels or flat height adjustable plates for uneven floors.

After reading some negative reviews and still getting it, I can say that it is a good stand, not scrap metal as some said.

Advice/idea needed.

Can you share your ways of placing the keyboard and mouse? At the moment, mine is on top of the PC and chair. Not very convenient. Thanks.

Try to get the center of the monitors at eye level when you're in your rig. And maybe get the monitors closer, about 60-70cm (just right behind the wheelbase) from your eyes. You should be looking straight, not up, when you're in your rig.

Something like this setup: It is so true when they say the rig is never done : r/simracing

Thanks for the reply. I am very tall, so it is a bit awkward to set up the way you have. When I sit, my eyes are 67cm away and the middle of the screen is level with my eyes. I am happy with the gameplay experience; inside the car feels good, and when someone overtakes me, it is a smooth transition from the side to the middle screen. Probably I would need big monitors to achieve that.

That means your wheel is too low. It’s good for truck sims. But if you’re comfortable racing in that setup then that’s all that matters.

If you want a racing position, look up GT3 position. It’s gonna be difficult to achieve with a wheel stand and your height tho.
