If you want a farming simulator take the first one, if you want a racing sim take the later

Logitech G29. It's more of an all-round wheel and more buttons.

I do find that wheels are better when they're all-round.

What would be better for my PS4-pro setup?

A wheel (and gaming chair)
Or
A new TV 4K (I currently own a 2013 Panasonic Plasma TV)

Get a new TV, which you can connect your console/PC up to?

Back in the day, I bought a PSX/PS2 just for console exclusive games like Gran Turismo. I could just put the disk in and play and it worked. To get PC games working, you needed the right hardware and within a year or two it would be obsolete. Some games also came out on console months before they did on PC and I didn't want to wait.

But that was 20 years ago and I was just a school kid. Now I find PC games to be far superior, but that's because I don't want a 'pick up and play' arcade game like Gran Turismo anymore. I want a serious racing sim which I can mess with under the hood and customise, which you can't do on consoles. That's my interest now.

but wouldn't it cause big input lag? (delay between what is happening on the laptop screen and tv screen?)
