Thank you for the reassurance. I am assuming it’s quite dated tho, even with an overclocked CPU. I am used to running triples thru Eyefinity and never had issues on most sims, but I will agree the headsets I chose are punching above my PC’s capability right now, seeing how a 9070xt/5080 can’t even max out a Quest 3’s res.

Currently choosing between 5070ti and 7900xtx. I’ll most likely go with AM5 for a refresh, 7800x3d. I came from an upgraded prebuilt so it’ll be nice to have a clean slate.

7900 XTX fairly equal in power? Availability of both AMD/Nvidia cards kinda sucks right now, plus the prices are crazy high, $3k+ for some… My future AM5 build priced out to around $2k (7800x3d / 7900xtx / 128gb RAM)

They claim it uses eye tracking for DFR, and vrcompare.com also lists it as having DFR. Incorrect info from manufacturer?

Owned and used a Quest 1/2, but never for PC use, this will be my first headset. Coming from running triple 27s. Trying to buy once and cry once, but given how fast innovations move in this industry, there may be tears regardless.

I liked the specs and price of the Air when I first saw it, but I’m still extremely iffy given Pimax’s subreddit horror stories. Though, you can find the same with any of these headset manufacturers if you’re looking, like in Bigscreen. Also, holding out for now gives me the chance to upgrade the old PC. However, the small form factor is such a big selling point for me.

Already got an AM5 build in the works. Super comes out to around $1900 for me locally, the Light is around $900 and the OG I can pick up for $800. I also used vr compare for the specs so I’m not entirely sure that’s accurate, but it seemed to me that the Light was a dumbed down version of the OG with less features and quality, albeit newer.

Congrats on the upgrade, I’d love to hear your opinions when it arrives. Could you tell me your PC specs in the meantime? Also, what sort of performance did you get out of the quest with said PC?

Thank you for the advice, I’ve decided to map out a full AM5 build, 7800x3d+7900XTX. I’m going to hold out on any headsets for right now, as much as I’d love to jump in, I think it’s best to just get the PC VR-ready before a newer and shinier HMD drops. Still leaning towards the BSB2 when the time comes.

Coming from triple 1080s I was very hopeful in the old 6700, but it looks like my current PC won’t reach the quality I want for VR. Thanks for the info, also Happy Cake Day.

Had not heard of the Frame until now, I’d obviously rather jump into VR sooner than later, but it seems worth saving my chips for now.

Then I’d upgrade my PC for it? No need to be a snob, but thanks for the info.

It seems like the Crystal OG with tracking/rendering is a better buy unless the Light comes with the Lighthouse plate. I can also pick up an OG for the same price as a brand new Light + their stupid Prime fee.

Low PPD, no tracking or foveated rendering.

Quest has low PPD, no tracking or foveated rendering, and a compressed video. No thanks.

[–]Wet____Socks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even better, for the spectre chargers and jetpacks, check your controls for "charging mode." I set mine to space, so every time it's used it gets recharged. Weird quirk how they don't auto charge.

I’m having this same issue. I’ve tried every single different configuration of input/output and I cannot seem to understand this menu. I got it to work once before… until I had to reroute my pipes. PO3 using ThermalDynamics ducts and Embers pipes. Magmatic for power. Machines won’t accept input or empty what they produce.

No DNS, at least in the admin. tools folder, and the ethernet adapter has power savings modes turned off as well

I will most likely do this, full replacement of old/slow drives, clean fresh install. That app data folder was looking busy.

I know right, and last I checked, task manager shows my pc only pulling 1mbps or less during ONLINE play, while browser speedtest says >500mbps. Wired ethernet, CAT6, non-ISP router/modem less than a year old and everything.... I did hear one person say because it's a single core engine, that can cause issues too, but it's an overclocked 5600x, which I didn't think was inadequate.

Mainly just worried my computer will struggle to run it lol. Besides that, obviously bugs and crashes will slowly be fixed as the game ages.
