Logitech’s G RS50 System is the perfect mid-step for racers who want more than an entry-level bundle but aren’t ready to dive into ultra-premium gear. Available in two variants, PlayStation + PC and Xbox + PC, each RS50 combo comes paired with the RS Round wheel for an all-in-one start. Both versions are open for pre-order now at PB Tech, so you can lock in your upgrade before stock lands. As your racing style evolves, you can add other RS rims like the RS Track for GT racing, making the RS50 a flexible foundation without replacing the entire base.
Direct-drive feel, Logitech polish. The G RS50 moves beyond gear and belt mechanisms to deliver the cleaner, faster, more nuanced force feedback sim racers crave. Logitech pairs that fidelity with the brand’s signature reliability and easy setup, so you get pro-grade torque response without the usual ecosystem complexity.
A modular RS ecosystem. The RS line introduces RS hubs and swappable rims, including RS Round and RS Track wheels, plus the RS Wheel Hub for plug-and-play rim changes. It’s a smarter path to future upgrades: add rims for different disciplines (GT, endurance) instead of replacing the whole system.
Console-specific variants that also support PC. The G RS50 ships as PlayStation + PC or Xbox + PC. Choose the one that matches your console and enjoy broad PC compatibility for sims like Assetto Corsa and iRacing.
If you primarily race Gran Turismo on PS5, grab the PlayStation + PC RS50. If your laps live in Forza Motorsport and the Xbox ecosystem, go for the Xbox + PC RS50. Either way, you’re covered for PC sim titles.
The G RS Ecosystem
Logitech’s RS family at PB Tech starts with the RS50 System bundled with the RS Round wheel, your all-in-one entry into modular direct-drive racing. This combo gives you the base and rim you need to hit the track immediately, with the flexibility to add other RS rims later, like the RS Track for GT and endurance racing. Swapping rims is quick and simple, so you can tailor your setup as your racing style evolves.
Who Should Choose the G RS50?
Console racers who want to level up their setup: You want the clarity and strength of direct-drive without ditching your platform. G RS50’s console-specific variants are built for that.
PC racers who prefer Logitech’s workflow: If you already like G HUB and Logitech’s integration, G RS50 lets you stay in the family while moving to a more serious base and modular rims.
If you think you’ll ever dabble in console sim racing, compatible systems like the G RS50 are ideal to ensure you’re not buying a second system down the line.
G RS50 vs. Logitech’s Other Wheels at PB Tech
G29 (PS/PC) and G920 (Xbox/PC) are gear-driven classics - affordable, reliable, and perfect for first rigs. You get decent force feedback, bundled pedals, and huge game support. The trade-off is mechanical noise and less fine detail versus direct drive.
G923 (PS or Xbox variants) adds TrueForce haptics, improving detail in supported titles and refining the overall feel. It’s a great mid-step if you’re not ready for a cockpit and the higher mounting demands of direct-drive torque. Still, it’s not modular in the G RS sense, and it won’t match the G RS50’s immediacy or upgrade flexibility.
The G RS50 sits above both: direct-drive performance, modular rims, and console-specific bases that also support PC. If you want long-term scalability (swap rims, add RS accessories) and the fidelity jump without going to the ultra-premium tier, the G RS50 is the logical next step.
Setup & Mounting
Moving to direct drive means more torque on your desk. RS50 will feel best on a sturdy wheel stand or cockpit. PB Tech’s Racing Sim category spans foldable stands (great for apartments) to full cockpits (Playseat, Next Level Racing) if you’re ready to commit. Your wrists and lap times will thank you.
Buying Checklist
Pick your platform variant: G RS50 PlayStation + PC or G RS50 Xbox + PC.
Add an alternative wheel: The G RS50 system at PB Tech comes equipped with an RS Round Wheel, but there's also the RS Track for a GT/club racing feel. The RS Wheel Hub makes upgrading painless.
Plan your mount: Desk clamps work short-term; a stand/cockpit is better for DD strength and precision.
Lights Out and Away We Go
The G RS50 is the bridge between Logitech’s approachable classics and its pro-grade ambitions. Whether you’re just starting your sim racing journey or you’ve outgrown a G29/G920/G923 and want to build a rig that evolves with your racing, start here: pick your console variant, add a second wheel if you fancy, and give the base a solid home in a stand or cockpit. It’s a clean upgrade path that’s fast to set up, easy to live with, and most importantly, built around the kind of feel that makes sim racing addictive.
