Zwift indoor virtual reality trainer

Can someone help me to choose graphics card to get, as it looks like the ones I currently have is not enough in my PC for use with Zwift. I have AMD Radeon HD 5450 and Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600.

There's a mountain to ride now...

Just got an email, monthly price going up to £13. I'm out.

I was thinking about swapping over from TrainerRoad, after they went up fro £6 to £9 ( not recent, I know ), but I think I'll stay where I am now :-/

I have a (one month over warranty!!) tacx smart trainer, flow+? And it's now deciding to randomly disconnect from ant service at the trainer end.
Last winter it worked flawless. Dunno if zwift has had an update that now makes my trainer go into limp mode (red error light flash and no control over resistance)
There's an update for the trainer, but hard to update something that won't stay connected to anything for long enough to do the deed

£13? Fuck that.
£5-8 is my acceptable number.
Add to that poss "built in obsolescence of my tacx....

£9.09 only better if it was £3.03

I am really interested in this zwift stuff. looks good for winter months. what is the best value smart trainer I could use with one? I have a wahoo if that helps.. I also have a bike with a disc brake which may alter suggestions too (ideally I do want a trainer that I can use by removing my rear wheel and directly mounting the bike to it)

Tacx Flux works with discs and is one of the cheapest direct drive trainers

Elite Direto is good bang for buck

Hi!
I have a problem, the sensor is detected by my telephone but once on the "road", my character is fixed and does not move forward in spite of the blows of pedals. How come?

Undo your front brake a little bit, either the QR or barrel adjuster should do it.

I got a second hand bkool pro (not the new one) and once updated works well with zwift

Anyone know what this mean on Zwift Power race results?

(I did terribly in all three!)

WanKinG ?

Weight per kilogram.

But what does it mean in terms of results? The other two races I was moved up to cat B as my w/kg were outside the cat C range, which put me very bottom of the B's! For some reason the KISS race just has that next to it and I'm not showing on the results anymore?

Zwift won't last longer than 5 seconds before crashing- often taking the machine with it.

Any ideas anyone?

Mine used to shit itself due to video card drivers.

Oh, yours is a Mac. Out.

Presume you have the latest version? They were pretty good responding to my issue. Sent them debug logs so they could try and fix it.

It's completely unusable, which is vexing

As I found with mine.

Which is why I don't use it :)

TrainerRoad gets some attention from me.

From Zwift:

Please try to run a fresh reinstallation. Here's how to have Zwift do a fresh game download:

1) Open up finder
2) Hold the "Alt/Option" key and click Go > Library
3) Open "Application Support"
4) CTRL-click (or RIGHT-click) on the Zwift folder and move to trash.
5) Re-run download the installer from Zwift.com and run it

That should clear away your old install and download the latest version of Zwift onto your Mac.

Anyone here signed up to the beta version of VirtuGO?
