Logitech G25 vs G27 (Gear) Noise Comparison

This is not a full review like everybody makes. This is only a pure noise comparison video for the Logitech G25 and G27. I made this video because I couldn't find a useful (gear) noise comparison video on the whole internet.

The G27 has straight gears which makes a lot of noise, while the G27 is very quiet with its helical gears! What a huge difference! The G27 appears to be a lot smoother too. And even the gearbox of the G27 feels way better, more solid and robust, ant it's quieter too.

HUH if mine is off heh wont ressist ( G25 ) cheater the g27 is off and the g25 on.

[knightwolf200612]

@Blackhawk946 Nope both not connected to anything, no USB, no power. Not even to the stick and pedals. This is 100% true comparison. Why should I fake about it?

[Blackhawk946]

@knightwolf200612 ok sorry dan but wy does the g25 resist if hes off???

[knightwolf200612]

@Blackhawk946 That's because of the straight gears I guess. I've opened the G25 to clean it inside and put new grease on it in the hope it would be much quieter. But it didn't help reduce the noise. That's why I bought the G27.

I prefer the G25 because it has sequential gear shifting aswell as H pattern... why did Logitech even remove the sequential gear shift on the G27? it seems so brain dead lol...

[knightwolf200612]

@Eclipezz Removing the sequential was neccessary to improve the quality of the H-shifter. And you don't really need the sequential because you already shift sequential with the flippers on the wheel. The G27 H-shifter feels much more profi in comparison to the kids toy G25 H-shifter. So Logitech has done the job quite well.

If the g27 can survive this guy then it can survive anyone....

Is it possible to open the G25 wheel and cut the straight cut gears more round, to reduce the noise?

[Gamemaster1424]

Good video! But f$#k your g25 wheel is broken or just too old. Mine works quietly!!

[Rcrby525]

@Eclipezz to make it better, besides, the g27 shifter has a ruberized grip, while the g25 is hard plastic.

it's just killed g25

nothing more

[dude2106]

@thepricylon No not necessarily. The G27 is a lot less noisy and the H shifter should be a lot better and it has more buttons on the steering wheel.

Of cause if you like the manual sequential mode then the G25 will be better for you, but I only use the H shifter mode on the gear lever. If I want sequential I just use the paddles on the wheel instead. (And currently I own a now broken G25, with a G27 on its way)

So it depends on what you want from you wheel.

[thepricylon]

@dude2106 that means that G25 Is better than G27 because of more option.

[dude2106]

@thepricylon No you can't. They removed that feature to improve the H shifter instead.

So if you want the sequential (forward - down, backwards - up) option you need to buy a G25.

1:45 Kit!!!! Come here i need your aid! lol

[stonerKYLE951]

I want the g27 so bad for gt5 looks like the nicest wheel with a clutch and 6 speed with everything

[ADRtobi]

@Blackhawk946 it is the construction of the gears inside... i had the same "problem". The g25 really has a small resist inside the construction ;)

no fake video - just the truth^^
