I have no experience with WidmoVR , but i have purchased two sets of lenses (CV1 and Rift S) from VRoptician , and couldn't be happier with them-and their packaging .

Guessing you're not using a mouse ? If you choose to use a mouse , the cross disappears after a couple of seconds of disuse , and reappears when you move the mouse again .

Which graphics card for 1080p?
Svsmokey replied to tmansteve's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
My 1070 is worth more now than i paid for it new ...too bad a grandson called dibs on it ! -
I don't see that 'puter as limiting Another consideration would be usage . Seated sim-only play ? Or do you anticipate enjoying room-scale vr as well ? More into "plug and play" or do you have a high tolerance for tweaking ? G2 , Rift S , Index and Pimax all have their adherents , and pluses and minuses . Rather than seeking recommendations , i advise doing your own (thorough) web research , as no one save you can establish your own priorities , i.e. fov , colors , clarity , comfort , refresh rate , audio , software etc .

Right-click the DCS executable (not the updater) , select properties , select compatability and you'll see it .

Have you tried disabling fullscreen optimisations ? I'm running a 6800xt with essentially default Adrenalin settings and do not see the stuttering .

I gotta be missing something obvoius (standalone dcs) quest 2 pain
Svsmokey replied to mallard729's topic in Virtual Reality
Thanks for the report ! -
What does "enterprise" mean ? $3k ? And i think for combat flight sims the vertical fov would be problematic . Doesn't look to comfortable either . Would love to be wrong about all of this , as i'm being put off the G2 by all the qc issues and update problems , and am looking forward to more hi-rez launches ....

Which graphics card for 1080p?
Svsmokey replied to tmansteve's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
I have to disagree with parts of what you say here . I (and others) had no issue running 1.5 ssaa and 2x msaa-@ 60 hz , maintaining vsync and thus keeping TrackIr micro-stutter free , as well as having a sharper picture than using msaa alone , which blurs the picture . I do think the 8gb vram is good advice , although i never tried 6 . -
My System: Would 32GB Improve It?
Svsmokey replied to C3PO's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
32 gb will also allow 100% preload radius , minimising in-game terrain loads in sp . -
Which graphics card for 1080p?
Svsmokey replied to tmansteve's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
I had quite good results running a 1070 at 1080p . Noticeably smoother than the 3gb 1060 i previously ran , and i was able to run both 2x msaa and 1.5 ssaa , which killed the sparklies , shimmering etc . A 1660 ti , a rx 5700 , or a 2060 should be ok as well . -
This problem is not limited to the Cosmos , as several threads here attest . I know of nothing the end user can do to mitigate the problem , except close your eyes during loading if it bothers you

I'm gonna assume from your spelling of "fibre" that your're in GB ? Have you considered Starlink ?

New Build, bad FPS HELP PLEASE!
Svsmokey replied to Mav161's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
I think at 1080p and 60hz , the 5700 should do the job well . But i fully agree regarding the ram . Is there an AMD motherboard bios setting a`la "xmp" that must be addressed for stated clocks ? -
I know of no evidence to suggest any improvement this year...

VR performance with RTX 3060 Ti, 3070, 3080 & RX 6800?
Svsmokey replied to Er1c75's topic in Virtual Reality
Not sure what you mean by "max fps" . What i tried to say is that i'm having a smooth experience whether at 80 , 40 , or the transition between the two . I work the pc as hard as possible , very low over Batumi , rolling and pulling hard and sweeping my view from forward to aft when testing . My pc is DCS-exclusive , so i have neither the ability to test nor an interest in how games perform . I am running a RiftS . -
Either will be fine . Right now , practical availability may be the deciding factor .

VR performance with RTX 3060 Ti, 3070, 3080 & RX 6800?
Svsmokey replied to Er1c75's topic in Virtual Reality
I have to respectfully disagree with this statement , with regard to Oculus . ASW is so seamless with my setup that i can't tell when it switches in or out absent a fps counter . -
What gpu do you reccomend for VR?
Svsmokey replied to jonatron5's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Gotta update my post to say that my 6800xt is absolutely smoking my Rift S . I couldn't be happier with the upgrade from a 1070 . One setting i had forgotten about was that hidden Oculus graphics quality/performance option . I had previously set it for the 1070 , and a Mudspike post inspired me to revisit it . Wow . Smooth , sharp graphics now have taken DCS to the next level . -
VR performance with RTX 3060 Ti, 3070, 3080 & RX 6800?
Svsmokey replied to Er1c75's topic in Virtual Reality
I'm quite happy with my 6800xt driving a RiftS . No ASW problems here . Very smooth at quite high graphics and aa setings , and handles Syria very well . -
I'm considering getting a G2 , or possibly a Q3 if it incorporates a DP or HDMI cable in the next iteration . In the meantime , I'm quite happy with my current RiftS , which represents a substantial increase in clarity over my previous CV1 . I use headphones instead of the native audio , and find the Oculus setup and tweaking to be far simpler than what i have read of the G2 . I also appreciate the much larger sweet-spot and reliability of the S , as compared to the G2 . To me the biggest downside is the Facebook connection , soon to be exacerbated if the court cases go the wrong way . Also , if your ipd is well outside the norm , the S might not be for you .
