OSP Digital Dash

I've been battling (and smashing) various old phones and tablets over the years, trying unsuccessfully to mount them properly and failing so gave in and went looking for something more permanent, cheap enough and prettier. I eventually stumbled across the OSP display, it's a neat 5" 800x480 panel, requires just an HDMI connection and then uses SimHub (or other telemetry software) to display your dash.

Am sure you could build something yourself cheaper but it was fitted, with a custom bracket for the wheel, and running within minutes so great for lazy people :) Works perfectly with my triples, which are set so I can rarely see any of the cars gauges/displays, and means I can remove most of the intrusive on-screen stuff for even more immersion. The only potential negative I could see is that if you have large sausage fingers and a T300 wheel then the gap between the paddle-shifters and screen is pretty small (around 25mm) but it's fine for me and if you used fingertips then it wouldn't be a problem anyway.

Great addition to any rig and reasonably priced too - have been using mine for over a year and is really useful for some cars (thinking particularly open wheeler’s) where setting up the correct FOV means your in game dash is not easily visible. Also doubles up as a second screen (be it a small one) for other pc apps.

Silly question, but don't you get refresh rates issues with your monitors ?

My triples are in nVidia surround and the OSP screen separate and so assume that allows them to run differently

If your looking for max immersion. Why not place screens exactly above the steering axle?

That's as close as I can get the triples, the mount is fixed to the cockpit. I don't have any issues though, it feels fine
