Hello All,
I am in the middle of building a simulator in my garage. So far I have purchased a Mevo+ and a BenQ LU935ST. I am planning on ordering a customized enclosure with a premium screen from Carl's in a 16:10 format that is either 105.5"x163" (96.5"x154" screen) or 102"x158" (93"x149" screen) with a 60" depth.
The size depends on how much buffer I leave off of the side wall. Any recommendations on that? Right now I am hoping to leave just 3 inches of buffer between the side of the enclosure and the wall. Is that enough? Can I get away with less?
I plan to mostly use the setup as a simulator, but I also hope to watch the occasional movie out there as well. Any recommendations on a desktop or laptop? I had planned get a gaming laptop so that I can take it out of my garage when I'm not using it, but I also don't want the computer to lag behind the projector and program.
I have yet to decide on a hitting mat and turf. I am planning on ordering that through Carl's as well. I plan to get one that accommodates both righties and lefties. I will probably go with a more inexpensive local product for the surrounding turf.
Any advice is appreciated!
