blksolo Posted May 26, 2019 Author Posted May 26, 2019 Free shipping also Btw. Intel i7 6700k OC 4.7ghz Asus ROG Maximus VIII Hero Motherboard Zotac GTX980ti 6GB Amp Extreme 32 GB DDR4 3200 RAM Oculus Rift CV1 Thrustmaster Warthog
Fri13 Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 That.... Is crazy good deal who can get it. Currently the best VR set for DCS (considering hardware requirements and what it offers) and you can get it for a such low deal now. i7-8700k, 32GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 2x 2080S SLI 8GB, Oculus Rift S. i7-8700k, 16GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 1080Ti 11GB, 27" 4K, 65" HDR 4K.

Currently the best VR set for DCS (considering hardware requirements and what it offers) and you can get it for a such low deal now. I was going to pass on the Rift S since I have a CV1, but at that price I had to order it. Ideally I wanted an HP Reverb but it would chew my 1070ti to pieces and I refuse to pay what Nvidia is charging for the 2080ti.

Panthera_Tigris Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 I am tempted. But I know the Index will probably be better and I do want to see what the Reverb is all about. So gonna hold out for now. If they both disappoint, I can get this anytime. There'll be sales in the future. BTW OP, I dont think even a 2080Ti can run a Reverb. I mean my 1080Ti struggles with the 5.1 million pixels I push for DCS at 200% SS. The Reverb will have 9.3 million pixels! Let's see how much 2.5.5 improves VR performance.

Let's see how much 2.5.5 improves VR performance. so with 200% SS, you are pushing 10.2 million pixels... Vs 9.3... Plus the up/down sampling overhead you have with SS.

Panthera_Tigris Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 so with 200% SS, you are pushing 10.2 million pixels... Vs 9.3... Plus the up/down sampling overhead you have with SS. No, 5.1 million is with the 200% SS.

Harlikwin Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 No, 5.1 million is with the 200% SS. What are you running? A DK2? A CV1, on of the lowest res sets, is about half the pixels of a reverb. At PD2 (or 200%) its equal to it. And it will run better since you don't have to super sample anything. New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog.

And it will run better since you don't have to super sample anything. Vive. And your math is totally off. Vive = 1080*1200= 1.296 million per eye. Double it for two eyes and again double it for 200% SS which comes to 5.1 million. Reverb = 2160*2160 = 4.665 million per eye. Or 9.3 million for two eyes.

These are the exact figures I quote in my post. I don't agree. 1080*1200 with SS at 200% doubles both resolutions to 2160*2400 for one eye ~= Reverb res. Or I don't understand SS correctly. :smartass: Windows 10 64bit, Intel i9-9900@5Ghz, 32 Gig RAM, MSI RTX 3080 TI, 2 TB SSD, 43" 2160p@1440p monitor.
Panthera_Tigris Posted May 28, 2019 Posted May 28, 2019 (edited) I don't agree. 1080*1200 with SS at 200% doubles both resolutions to 2160*2400 for one eye ~= Reverb res. Or I don't understand SS correctly. :smartass: SS scales the number of pixels which is a product of both horizontal and vertical resolution. To get to 200% SS (or 196% more accurately), increase the resolution on your x axis by 140% and on your y axis by 140%. (1.4*1.4=1.96) Here is proof (screenshots from Steam showing SS values): At 200% SS you have = 2136*2376 = 5.075 million At 100% SS you have = 1512*1680 = 2.54 million The "Pixel Density" term used in DCS is not the same as Steam SS. PD changes BOTH x and y resolutions having a multiplicative effect while SS just changes the number of pixels by that factor and then changes the x and y resolutions proportionately. Edit: No idea what terminologies occulus uses.

Times 2 for both eyes is 10.4 mil. To get near equal resolution its PD 1.9 which gives 4.67 million per eye. New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog.

I'm running Rift VC1 at 1.8PD with solid 45fps (at times seeing 65-70), but when tried Pimax 5K+ on a normal FOV with PD=1 barely got 35-40fps. i5-9600K@4.8GHz ★ 32Gb DDR4 ★ rtx5070ti ★ Quest Pro ★ Warthog on Virpil base
Panthera_Tigris Posted May 28, 2019 Posted May 28, 2019 I'm using DCS PD. I guess steam does something stupid. Like I said, SS in Steam and PD in DCS are not the same thing. I specially said SS in my very first comment. I mean 2x PD in DCS with a 1080Ti should have sent alarm bells ringing. Probably wont even get 10 FPS :megalol: How much do you go with your 2080Ti?

blksolo Posted May 29, 2019 Author Posted May 29, 2019 They have it on sale at the Microsoft store for $359 dollars and free shipping also. You have to be a student/teacher/military to get the discount. If you are a student they ask for a .edu email address to prove you are a student. If you are current or former military they dont ask for any proof,just your word.

backspace340 Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 Somehow math did not work for me. I'm running Rift VC1 at 1.8PD with solid 45fps (at times seeing 65-70), but when tried Pimax 5K+ on a normal FOV with PD=1 barely got 35-40fps. The difference there will be the FOV - 'Normal' FOV in the Pimax is supposedly 150 or so, it's smallest is around 125, the Rift only has 110. The Pimax is a lot more taxing on your system because more of the game is being displayed and so more objects need to be drawn.
