Asetek La Prima and Logitech G Pro Racing Wheel are direct drive wheels with similar specs. Both have 12Nm (La Prima) and 11Nm (G Pro) torque, Direct Drive technology, and Standard Quick Release. The main difference lies in compatibility - Asetek is PC-only, while the G Pro supports PC/PS5/Xbox.
I've seen the La Prima's pedal get a polarizing reception from users. Some love its brick wall feel, while others can't stand it. I personally think Invicta pedals are better, but opinions vary. Users also report issues with the wheel's feedback, particularly in games that require subtle brake inputs - drifting, rally driving, and road car racing seem to be where the La Prima struggles. The G Pro has its own set of problems. Users have reported a loud rattle in the wheelbase, which is not just a matter of vibration settings but a physical issue with the design. Some users also experienced flickering issues after an hour of racing. And then there are the horror stories about dealing with customer support - getting contractors in the Philippines who try to pass you off to actual Logitech support. It's worth noting that some users have had good experiences with both wheels, but I'm inclined to believe their stories when they mention specific failures like broken QRs or overheating. The G Pro's premium price point is supposed to guarantee quality and reliability, but it seems like a gamble at best.
For the budget-conscious user who doesn't mind a few quirks, the Asetek La Prima might be a good value for money. It's more affordable than the G Pro, and users report decent feedback. But if you're willing to pay a premium price point and expect top-notch quality and reliability, I'd say go with the Logitech G Pro Racing Wheel. Just don't say I didn't warn you about its potential issues.
