  • Is the original Index worth getting at this point?
    Man do you even keep up to date with VR tech? DecaGear 1, Pimax 8K X, Reverb G2, and Quest 2, which can now support 120hz in some games. The pimax surpasses the index is almost every way, and the other three have much better value. And no, I don't know anyone with the DecaGear 1, because, as I said, it hasn't been released yet. But it's a headset that will have index-like finger tracking, much higher resolution... Source: about 3 years ago
  • New Tool: Elite Dangerous Personal Assistant
    Oculus is great. I'm still playing on the original Rift CV1. For Elite and space/flight sims specifically, I have my sights set on the HP Reverb G2 but I'm not sure if my measly 1080 GTX will keep up with it. Source: about 3 years ago
  • Testing & Benchmarking the HP Reverb G2 vs. the HP G1 and HTC Vive Pro
    I think the the lens is like that to magnify and increase the FOV with the smaller screens (https://www8.hp.com/us/en/vr/reverb-g2-vr-headset.html#id_823212197). I am not sure if foveated rendering is used by default, it may be up to the game engine to implement it. Lot of optimizations are yet to be done for VR. With the newer GPUs out of stock, one can only hope. Source: about 3 years ago
  • Need help for a decision to make (new monitor vs VR)
    Do I buy a new monitor and a TrackIR or do I buy a VR Headset (or this). Source: about 3 years ago
