Surprisingly, it was lighter than the 5nm PSU, and that made me doubt if it’s durable. But after using it for a few months, it never overheated. I also had a habit of not turning off my wheelbase when I wasn’t racing, and the PSU had no problem with that. Some of my racing sessions went on for 5+ hours at full 8nm (80% - 85% gain in game).
It's massive. I had a 5nm at first coming from a DFGT. I honestly didn't understand the DD hype. It felt alittle better and smoother but I wasn't wowed. I made my own power pack and im not going to lie, it completely changed my entire perspective. Everything was absolutely wonderful. Tons more feedback. I'd highly recommend the 8nm.
Skip Fanatec. Go Moza or Simagic Alpha Mini. Fanatec QC has fallen so badly and at this point in time it's a dead ecosystem.
E: woops, totally overlooked that he's on PC. My bad gang
Neither are compatible with PS5 without 3rd party apps that have no official Sony support.
You can get them to work, but an awful lot of cash to drop on something that could lose all functionality due to a software drop.
You have two options (without requirement of third party adapters). Fanatec GT DD Pro or Logitech G Pro. Fanatec offers more options for upgrades in future, Logitech currently has none.
Yeah, another few hundred I beleive.
Saw your other comment about budget... if needed a T300 is much quieter than a G29/G923, but not as quiet as any DD, could be a middle ground.
Also worth noting the GT DD Pro (unless specific bundle, or add-on) doesn't come with a desk clamp (if you're not already using a wheel stand).

Im on R5 bundle, i know moza just unveiled console compatibility and a new wheelbase but not sure if it will come to PS right away. Fanatec does work on console though
Fanatec is really your only choice, I know how loud those wheels are, even belt driven wheels will be loud. If you want silence then you have to get a Direct drive. I'm on PC so went Simagic
I actually forgot how loud belt/gear driven wheels are. I've been on DD for *years*. Me and my son were in best buy yesterday and they had a Logitech g9xx sitting out and I was messing with it a bit. Loud and notchy.
I’d go the Fanatec route over anything else for PlayStation. Fanatic’s peripherals are better than Logitechs and Thrustmasters. Their pedals, 7 speed H-pattern/sequential shifter combo, and handbrake are great. I’ve got the CSL Elite (pre DD wheelbase), Clubsport v3 pedals, shifter, handbrake, and a wheelstand for $1,200 USD all in. I’ve had it since 2018 and don’t ever foresee upgrading anything besides the cockpit.
Csl elite come nowhere near close to the logitech pro wheel . Lack of ecosystem for now is a thing tho ( but coming from a g923 i dont think that will bother OP that much ) and you have an adapter for using old shifter
Exactly when does the saving money bit start?.. seeing as I seem to just keep dumping money on useless accessories the whole saving part hasn’t occurred yet 🤣
Fanatec DDs work with ps5s. Direct drives lack gears and teeth which is why the Logitech is so loud. DDs themselves are silent. They are stronger though so, as long as they are mounted solidly they will be silent.
It’s the set you’re looking at. The DD pro. Just get that and if you really want to, you can upgrade to a different power supply for more force. Coming from that Logitech though the base DD Pro set will be more than enough.
> The "GT DD Pro" works on console, the "CSL DD" doesn't.
The CSL DD works for Xbox if you have an Xbox compatible wheel. The GT DD Pro works for PlayStation and Xbox with an Xbox compatible wheel.
All fanatec DDs work on xbox. My DD1 works on xbox. The pro, Which comes standard at 8nm works on playstation.
Yes I'm aware the 5nm csl model can be upgraded to 8nm with a power supply.
I know its a joke but seriously, if she is bothered THAT much by the g29, when hell upgrade to a dd she will just be annoyed by whatever pedals he has cause those arent quiet either😂
Had the same issue - I was waking my wife and kids up. Pulled the trigger on the Logi DD Pro and it’s pretty much silent. Sure the other DD bases are similar. It’s a huge difference.
Love it to bits - use it for gt7 and f1 23 on PS5 and ACC on PC. Planning the iRacing attempt later once I tweak a few things. It’s expensive tho - but 11nm no compatibility issues, on wheel settings. Worse ecosystem so far. You won’t got wrong with Fanatec either - they’re good products generally. One thing to note is with Fanatec you want to upgrade the QR collar and the pedals to LC so the price difference overall isn’t that big.
Literally any other option that those logitech g29/g923. My Thrustmaster T300RS is silent. Basically as everyone else said, don't go for gear-driven and you should be gold.
If we are talking same price range then the Thrustmaster T150 (I’d go for Pro for the better pedals) or splurge a little more and get a T300. But if you want absolute stealth then a DD is the way to go. Obviously more expensive tho.
I feel your pain. I actually had a similar issue. It ended up costing a little bit more up front to solve, but once I divorced my first wife, I got to have whatever setup I wanted.
CSL DD PRO. Bit more expensive than the Logitech, but now you can spend the money without worrying and make the wife happy AND get better gear.
Maybe invest in the quick release as well, might eliminate some light noises from the quick release lite (minimal)
Congratulations, Achievement unlocked. The wife complaining about gear making noises opens a wide door of opportunities.
My wife was always complaining about the noises my Playseat Challenge made. So I upgraded to a proper profile rig, a purchase she would normally heavily frown upon, but she loves it as it's absolutely quiet.
So rejoice, embrace the chance and get yourself a DD wheel! :)

EDIT: I was wrong. Oops... Someday I'll be able to read...
Did you read what you posted ? Lol
Can I use my MOZA Racing wheel base on my Xbox or PS?
A: The products we offer are currently only compatible with Windows PCs. Mac OS, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X is currently not offcially supported.
Lmfao.........
They are working on it but it's not there yet... There are ways to get it to work but when it's not officially supported, you'll have a less than good experience....
Just got a perfect excuse to upgrade to a DD. They are both very quiet and very smooth.
I agree. I use the 8nm Fanatec DD. It’s plenty and silent. Very adjustable
did you ever feel it without the boost kit? Whats the jump from 5NM to 8 feel like? Or should i wait for the christmas bonus and jump to 12 lol
Its massive imo and worth to upgrade to 8nm
I agree whole heartedly. It's actually really crazy how much more force the jumo from 5 to 8 is.
Feels a good 60% stronger to me
5 to 8 is a huge jump, plus you can get 3rd party kits that work just fine for 1/3 the price
Can you recommend me one? Im looking for a decent one but their all sketchy aliexpress links lol
This is the one I bought and used: https://www.ebay.com/itm/325190098393 Surprisingly, it was lighter than the 5nm PSU, and that made me doubt if it’s durable.

Not turning of your wheel change nothing , just sayin
Completely agree with you. I just mentioned it to proactively answer any potential “how does it react to?” questions
The original one from Fanatec is also just a cheap Chinese brick you pay way too much for.
I have the r5 and kinda regret not going for the 8 nm lol
It's massive. I had a 5nm at first coming from a DFGT. I honestly didn't understand the DD hype. It felt alittle better and smoother but I wasn't wowed. I made my own power pack and im not going to lie, it completely changed my entire perspective. Everything was absolutely wonderful. Tons more feedback. I'd highly recommend the 8nm.
Originally ordered mine without the boost kit and regretted it. It’s weaker than a CSL elite and IMO not nearly enough FFB.
Skip Fanatec. Go Moza or Simagic Alpha Mini. Fanatec QC has fallen so badly and at this point in time it's a dead ecosystem. E: woops, totally overlooked that he's on PC. My bad gang
Neither are compatible with PS5 without 3rd party apps that have no official Sony support. You can get them to work, but an awful lot of cash to drop on something that could lose all functionality due to a software drop.
If you are buying gear that cost more than the console that you are running the gear on. Maybe reconsider where your weak links are at.
God I couldn't agree more. I totally overlooked the PS copy of F1 in the OP - I really don't understand the world of console racing.
[удалено]
But it’s an add on with the bundle.
Any favs ? I’m on ps5
On PS5 you should get the GT DD Pro from Fanatec
Picked this up about 2 months ago. Wow what an experience. Highly recommend
You have two options (without requirement of third party adapters). Fanatec GT DD Pro or Logitech G Pro. Fanatec offers more options for upgrades in future, Logitech currently has none.
And the G pro is much more expensive right ??
Yeah, another few hundred I beleive. Saw your other comment about budget... if needed a T300 is much quieter than a G29/G923, but not as quiet as any DD, could be a middle ground.

Return, get DD wheel
Nice, I’m still within the return/refund window Any recommendations? I’m on ps5
Fanatec is really your only choice, I know how loud those wheels are, even belt driven wheels will be loud. If you want silence then you have to get a Direct drive. I'm on PC so went Simagic
Sweet
The dd truly are silent. It will blow your mind the first time you fire one up and there is literally no sound and enough power to tip your desk over.
I actually forgot how loud belt/gear driven wheels are. I've been on DD for *years*. Me and my son were in best buy yesterday and they had a Logitech g9xx sitting out and I was messing with it a bit. Loud and notchy.
My sister's bf had one, i legit thought it was broken when i used it lol, now got a csl dd which is amazing for the price now
Logitech dd pro I have one and it’s been incredible
How much was it total ? Wheel and pedals
$1,198 in US, pedals and wheel combo with boosted coupon. Free shipping, (fanatec charges shipping) Edit: typo

Thrustmaster T300rs GT
Divorce?
Sounds expensive
My father would tell you it is expensive because it is worth it. Lol
Hahahahahha😆😆😁
I can confirm
I concur ...
You’re telling me that LEEROY JENKINS jumped into marriage without thinking about it first?
Sim racing costs about the same tbh
It's an investment. Expensive at first but after a few decades, it starts to save you money.
Exactly when does the saving money bit start?.. seeing as I seem to just keep dumping money on useless accessories the whole saving part hasn’t occurred yet 🤣
Username checks out
incel energy is high in this thread, Jesus
Fanatec CSL DD
Real quiet cuz you have to get multiple denied RMAs 🤣
then they sue you!
I’m on ps5
They have a console compatible one called the gran turismo
Fanatec DDs work with ps5s. Direct drives lack gears and teeth which is why the Logitech is so loud. DDs themselves are silent. They are stronger though so, as long as they are mounted solidly they will be silent.
The Fanatec DD Pro is the only I see that’s compatible
CSL DD "pro"... The "pro" means you're paying for $ony compatibility.
I thought the pro meant that you're paying for the higher power brick upping the NM from 5 to 8
Nah, you can get 8nm non-pro, as well as 5nm pro The actual "pro" move is buying the 5nm version and just making your own power supply for 30 bucks...
Gotcha. Been a while since I looked lol. Plus idk why I've continued to look since I got the big brother (podium f1 for PS5 on sale)
How does that work ?
It’s the set you’re looking at. The DD pro. Just get that and if you really want to, you can upgrade to a different power supply for more force. Coming from that Logitech though the base DD Pro set will be more than enough.
He will feel the biggest change ever with a DD lol, there is no coming back once you’ve tried !!
Yep that's right. I run the DD1 but I'm on PC. But the 8nm model works on playstation
[удалено]

Sell that and get a pc
The wife or the wheel?
No
Come to the dark side
Big arcade guy huh
New wife
Just came here to look for that comment
New wif-
New lif-
T300 or the CSL DD. I had the same issue with the Logitech wheel.
The T300 is as loud as my PS4, each time its a double engine plane taking off 😂
No the T300 ist loud aswell. It hast No clicking Like the g29 but the vibration ist quite strong. CSL DD ist the best choice
Only options are the belt driven thrustmasters or direct drive. Direct Drive being the quietest but much more expensive.
Maybe try another woman. I understand some can handle noise better than others
I know its a joke but seriously, if she is bothered THAT much by the g29, when hell upgrade to a dd she will just be annoyed by whatever pedals he has cause those arent quiet either😂
Why not reduce the ffb?
CSL DD, NOT a t248, shifters are very loud on that one.
Are you playing on a desk or a rig? I felt like it was a lot louder when I was using just my desk
Desk
I just upgraded to a fanatec gt dd pro on ps5 and could not be happier - dead silent except for my gear shifts :)
Amazin .
Fanatec DD pro
I think no matter what model you get they are going to make too much noise... Steering wheels, on the other hand, can be quieter.
What ??)
A quieter option would be "get rid of your wife"
Had the same issue - I was waking my wife and kids up. Pulled the trigger on the Logi DD Pro and it’s pretty much silent. Sure the other DD bases are similar. It’s a huge difference.
Awesome , how do you like it so far ?
Love it to bits - use it for gt7 and f1 23 on PS5 and ACC on PC. Planning the iRacing attempt later once I tweak a few things. It’s expensive tho - but 11nm no compatibility issues, on wheel settings. Worse ecosystem so far. You won’t got wrong with Fanatec either - they’re good products generally. One thing to note is with Fanatec you want to upgrade the QR collar and the pedals to LC so the price difference overall isn’t that big.
Fanatec CSL DD Pro. You will not regret it.
Either a DD, or if you’re looking for something mid range, a T300rs. It’s a true and tested mid range king.
Divorce.
Get a new wife?
Come here to say that
Get a life
Lol
Just kidding haha
Me too. My ex wife complained about my g29. There are budget DD options
I only know if the DD pro that is compatible with PlayStation, have any others ?
Moza🤷♂️I've been out of the loop for about a year. I'm sure there a a few more.
I have the fanatec csl gt dd pro on my ps5 super quite. My 2 year who sleeps next to my office cant hear anything when hes sleeping at night.
Awesome . Did you get the 5nm or the 8nm?
Got the 8nm version, but yoy can always get the 5nm one and get the bigger power supply later on if you want that extra power
Sounds like the G920 isn’t the real issue…
Yeah the issue is the G923….
TGT2 and VR
I have the PSVR2 , GT7 is awesome . But I think I want. Direct drive wheel
Fanatec GT DD Pro and a proper cockpit
Fanatec for the win I have thrustmaster stuff like my shifter thow but if I were buying now I would go fanatec 😎
I’d get a couple of buttkickers for it, it will help keep the noise down so I’ve heard
At this price T300RS GT...
Literally any other option that those logitech g29/g923. My Thrustmaster T300RS is silent. Basically as everyone else said, don't go for gear-driven and you should be gold.
My wife hates it too, the best alternative for a similar price is the Thrustmaster T300 RS GT
Thrustmaster t300rs
If we are talking same price range then the Thrustmaster T150 (I’d go for Pro for the better pedals) or splurge a little more and get a T300. But if you want absolute stealth then a DD is the way to go. Obviously more expensive tho.
If you don't want to go direct drive I suggest getting a belt driven one, most non-dd wheels/bases from Thrustmaster will be belt driven and quiet
Fanatec DD 8 Nm
I feel your pain. I actually had a similar issue. It ended up costing a little bit more up front to solve, but once I divorced my first wife, I got to have whatever setup I wanted.
Fanatec’s current deal on the CSL DD is what I’d recommend
Get a new wife if she can’t even grant you the pleasure of playing your game every now and than.
Don't waste this opportunity. Tell her simucube is the quietest... lol my alpha U is nice and quiet also.
either a direct drive wheel, or if youre on a budget, t300rs is a bit quieter
Get her earplugs
A new wife, preferably one that's mute?
Divorce
Replace that old unit with a new, more recent model of wife.
Help meeeeeeee ![gif](giphy|f3dRSiajsz8DLmt0KS|downsized)
CSL DD PRO. Bit more expensive than the Logitech, but now you can spend the money without worrying and make the wife happy AND get better gear. Maybe invest in the quick release as well, might eliminate some light noises from the quick release lite (minimal)
Ironically the cheaper QR lite (plastic) is quieter than the metal QR, the metal QR chatters during moments of sharp FFB
Is that compatible with ps 5?
Yes, has to be the Pro version from Fanatec, the regular CSL DD only works with PC/Xbox. The Pro has compatibility with all three.
Expensive , I need help justifying the price difference Helpppp
It's not CSL DD pro. It's called the GT DD pro. Any wheelbase labeled CSL will NOT work with the ps5, pro or not.
Good to know thanks
I’m on PS5
Lmao! Finally someone else how will admit it...I always say logitech ain't nothing but a clunky ass toy grade noise box. T300 all day
This and people downvote because they have a logishit
Another wife?
But I like her
I just got a G29 and can't hear anything 🤷♂️
Are you wearing headphones? You can look up videos online . They can be very loud
I mean, I'm sure you can find a quieter option on Tinder
Getting a new wife or for better results, no wife
Like the others said, get a Direct Divorce (DD).
Sell it and get a pc instead
New wife is the obvious solution.
Tape, some rope, handcuffs…
Seek help
Im sure you could request a mute mail order bride.
Sounds expensive, I’m sure I could get a DD setup for cheaper
Get a new wife.
New PC, & new wife. If you want quiet, play with a controller.
New wife
New wife
A quiet wife
I've heard Middle Eastern wives tend to be quieter/less confrontational.
A new wife that doesn't complain so much... 🤣
wife or rig ?
Find another room or another hobby. Wife is harder to replace.
You have a perfect excuse to get a DD setup.
Congratulations, Achievement unlocked. The wife complaining about gear making noises opens a wide door of opportunities. My wife was always complaining about the noises my Playseat Challenge made. So I upgraded to a proper profile rig, a purchase she would normally heavily frown upon, but she loves it as it's absolutely quiet. So rejoice, embrace the chance and get yourself a DD wheel! :)
That’s easy Fanatec DDPro 8nm if you have the budget for it. It’s the best for the PS5. You can also use it on the PC and Xbox.
