These two do not quote torque the same way. Thrustmaster does not say whether the T598 (XBOX / PC)'s 5 Nm is peak, holding, or continuous. MOZA states peak for the R9. The figures are printed as published, and we do not rank one against the other, because that would be arithmetic on unlike measurements.
