VR performance 50% boost...

[GTX2660Ti]

Wasn't this posted a year or two ago?

 

edit: since building my new PC I've seen a huge improvement anyway - yesterday, for eg's, in the F-16 I was seeing framerates between minimum 57 and 120+ at treetop level over forests and towns in the Caucasus - and that's the best I ever had by some margin.

Heck, I can fly over Syria and mine bitcoin at the same time with no hiccups... only some smoke coming out of my rig...  j/k   Yea, I see some improvement, not too much though.

... so long ago, and such a different way of life back then.

Yes got a new rig as well and for the first time I am happy with the performance I get. But to run it decently in VR you need a pc that is way and way above the minimum specs. I get 120 FPS with everything maxed on flat screen and only 45 FPS on average in VR. Settings high for most. Pc 9700k OC’d to 5mhz, 3080, 32 ram.

 

VR optimization is not on par with 2D.

Same here.  I have a i9-9900K @ 5Ghz, and Nvidia 2080Ti, 64GB Ram, Evo Plus 1TB + Spinner. I cap my frames at 120 since my monitors is 120Hz, and it has no problem holding that maxed out.

 

With VR, ASW can *usually* hold it at 40FPS, and it'll jump to 80FPS > 30,000' when there's no one around.  But the frames are significantly less.  It was less than that before I turned off mirrors.

 

I'd love to see this new version in VR, as soon as I can get it working.

 

Oh, and by the way, that 120hz monitor that I can run at 120FPS ... it's 5120x1440 resolution. I have the 49" Samsung monstrosity.  I don't think DCS can look any better.  I still prefer VR, though.  I've tried dogfighting on the monitor, and I'm way worse.  The 3D perspective is huge  in flight.

[Csgo GE oh yeah]

I've been thinking about going back to 2d myself, because of the better graphics. 
But, i think i'd really miss simple stuff like moving your head to the side to look down 'out the window' so to speak. 

 

It's just not the same in 2d.

Youtube clickbait has nothing on what this title in the forums has! I can resist youtube - I think my hand moved to my mouse faster than the speed of light to click on this.  To find out that it refers to a 2 year old post. 

 

Well played sir... well played. 

[Johnny Dioxin]

I was wondering what on earth this thread was about - but if it's just clickbait that's very sad. If I were a mod....

Vulcan engine incoming, it will be in this year 3-4Q.

Vulcan engine good for AMD cards and systems . Not so much of a change for Nvidia .

Maybe this is going to be another HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT... as the 50% boost promise from wags was...

my experience in Xplane would suggest otherwise.

It isnt true. If you have Red Dead Redemption 2 - check it how it works on DX and Vulcan. With Vulcan I have 10-20+ FPS more in the same place with NVidia 2080.
