Do I need a free-standing monitor mount for the ClubSport GT Cockpit?

The Fanatec ClubSport GT Cockpit is a highly adaptable sim racing setup. One of the most common questions among sim racers is whether a free-standing monitor mount is necessary. The short answer is: "No, you don't need one because there is a built-in mount included." But let’s explore the features of the ClubSport GT Cockpit’s onboard monitor mount and the optional accessories available to enhance your setup.

The ClubSport GT Cockpit includes a built-in, adjustable monitor mount as part of its standard package. This onboard mount supports monitors with a 100x100mm VESA pattern and can accommodate screens ranging from 32” to 49” ultra-wide monitors. This makes it an excellent option for most single-monitor setups, providing a compact and ergonomic solution for immersive sim racing.

With the integrated monitor mount, you can position your screen to achieve the perfect field of view without the need for additional accessories. This setup is particularly advantageous for racers looking to minimize space usage while maintaining a professional and immersive racing experience.

For sim racers who require more advanced monitor setups, Fanatec offers two optional accessories to complement the ClubSport GT Cockpit. These provide solutions for both larger monitors and multi-monitor configurations:

This free-standing monitor stand supports screens ranging from 32” to 65”, with VESA mounts compatible with patterns from 100x100mm up to 400x400mm. Key features include:

• Overhead mount included: Comes with an optional overhead monitor mount for screens up to 34” ultra-wide, ideal for telemetry or streaming content.
• Sturdy design: Constructed with 50mm diameter steel tubes and a horizontal steel mounting bar for exceptional stability.
• Height-adjustable feet: Ensures a level setup on any surface.
• Cable management: Integrated features keep your rig clean and organized.

This stand is perfect for sim racers who prefer a single large monitor or want to include a smaller auxiliary screen above the main display.

For racers seeking a panoramic, multi-monitor experience, the Triple Monitor Expansion Kit upgrades the ClubSport Monitor Stand to support three monitors. Key features include:

• Supports three monitors: Each screen can measure between 32” to 55” and is compatible with VESA patterns from 100x100mm to 400x400mm.
• Fine-tuning mechanisms: Allows for precise alignment of monitor bezels to create a seamless viewing experience.

This accessory is ideal for sim racers who want to fully immerse themselves in their virtual racing world with a wide, surround-style field of view.

The Fanatec ClubSport GT Cockpit provides a built-in monitor mount that fulfills the needs of most single-monitor setups. For racers looking to expand their setup with larger monitors or multi-monitor configurations, the optional ClubSport Monitor Stand and Triple Monitor Expansion Kit offer versatile and high-quality solutions.

By offering these customizable options, Fanatec ensures that the ClubSport GT Cockpit caters to every sim racer’s preferences. Whether you’re keeping it simple or going all out with a triple-screen rig, you can build the ultimate racing setup with ease.
