Ok, so its not on Steam initially, when will it be added to Steam for pre-order? Its hard to understand why it wouldn't be available on Steam when all of the other modules have been. A lot of us are on Steam.

Price dropped to $200 on the Virpil Panel

Brand new Virpil Control Panel 1 & Thrustmaster Cougar MFD panels. Cougars are new in the box, never used. Virpil panel I unboxed, and setup, and then never used it as my PointCtrl order got filled and I just click cockpits in VR now. I no longer have a use for either of these so they are up for sale.

GTX 4 series looks like it might be coming later this year, looks promising. If it does I'll grab a 4090 and sell off my 3090.

You said 64gb RAM, are you using dual channel 32 sticks or 4x16? What MB? I had issues with 4x16 sticks causing issues and when I went to 2x16 they went away. All 4 sticks were good, but the z690 asus board didn't like 4 sticks. The Oculus should be easier to drive than the G2. I have both. The clarity in the G2 makes it worth the small performance hit.

Reverb G2 is working great for me on 11. Did all the usual VR windows settings tweaks and it is plenty smooth with a 3090 and 12900k. MB had some RAM issues at first that caused crashing but that was because apparently z690 boards don't like more than 2 sticks of RAM apparently right now. Once I figured that out its been smoothing sailing.

I have been searching everywhere to try and find a chart/list of the communications menu written out to help me configure VoiceAttack the way I want, does anyone know of or have a list/map of the communications menu?

Also, make sure you are positioning the cable correctly. I bring the cable around in front of me, push it up slightly, and tuck it right behind my belt buckle. Keeps it from gently pulling on the back of the headset while you are flying.

Ah, I read the specs too quickly, saw 970 and read it as gtx970 in my brain. Running on no caffeine and hungry is no way to go through life, or the forums. 3080 Will handle things just fine. I have a 3090 and its great for VR, I can get 70-90 fps most of the time on a Reverb G2. Whatever you get, try and get as much VRAM as you can. DCS actually uses all 20GB on the 3090, which is both impressive and sad at the same time.

The question I want to know is that even though the resulting pixels may be the same, does one route or the other, based on how the PC renders everything make a difference in-game vs SteamSS? On paper they shouldn't, but paper and real world differ sometimes. Has anyone tested this quantifiably?

Not sure exactly. Threw in a set of handcuffs because I couldn't find a box of BBs I had intended to use, it balanced it out nicely so they are still in there.

I was getting really tired of having to tighten my Reverb G2 down so much to keep it from sagging on my face, or loosen it only to have to keep adjusting it, so I fixed it. Added some extra padding on top to help keep it from sliding, also makes it feel lighter. Also added a counterweight to the back to balance it out. Now it sits in place all session, I don't have to tighten it down to where my face ends up red when I take it off, and looking around feels much more natural. This is how they should all come. I know someone will ask so here is what I used: Pads Link Counterweight Link Velcro (1-inch Roll)

They were right on the GPU, with that little VRAM you will struggle in VR, especially with the Reverb G2. Updating the GPU should get you going. Look at the new AMD line or the Nvidia 3060 or better.
