Title of the thread should be self-explanatory. Let's see them rigs. I'll start with mine, as you can see I'm in the process of incorporating a WIDE variety of controllers for all different purposes and setting them up to be 100% accessible at all times, allowing me to jump from multiple sim controls, gamepads, keypads, keyboard, and mouse all within the same game.

Serious gamer.

My beast consists of a PC, monitor, keyboard, mouse, and wifi card.. lol

Aka basic.

Very cool setup though. Would be interesting to play games via different controls

Serious indeed. I've been very deep into the hobby for my entire life, but up until recently haven't had much in the way of sim equipment. I've been taking advantage of the low price of vintage hardware (particularly gameport devices) in order to acquire things that were really good at their time (Suncom's F15 peripherals and CH's Virtual Pilot Pro for example) and have primarily been targeting things that were prized at the time of me getting my first PC as well as more iconic and recognized peripherals (such as my Model M keyboard, the new iteration of Intellimouse is next on my list to acquire). Only thing I'm really missing (because sadly my G520 went completely out, flyback and tube) is a quality CRT. Half of the real fun of owning all of these is piecing them together in a way where they work with one another, for my gas/brake pedals for example I'm thinking of removing them from their original base and putting them in a Y shape on my right rudder pedal. I'm thinking of doing something similar for my USB foot switches and left rudder pedal.
