Also what do you guys think about this vs. Logitech G pro about same price. I know it's 11nm vs 20nm, but some people are swearing by the trueforce of logtiech. Honestly don't know what's just hype and what's for real

That said, 8Nm is more than enough for me. It will definitely give you sore arms/wrists and numb fingers after about an hour of off-road driving. I can't imagine dialing it up 20Nm! Something that powerful can cause serious injury.
