CybrSlydr Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 I just got an RX 6800XT and really want to get a VR headset for DCS (one of the main reasons for upgrading my 1080). Which ones should I be looking into that my new 6800XT will be able to power sufficiently?

Svsmokey Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 I run at 60 hz , and maintain it under all circumstances except on airfields and the supercarrier , when it seamlessly switches to 30 with motion smoothing . This allows me the headroom to run quite high eye-candy settings in DCS with no mods (i personally run a clean install of DCS except for Vaicom Pro) . 1 9700k @ stock , Aorus Pro Z390 wifi , 32gb 3200 mhz CL16 , 1tb EVO 970 , MSI RX 6800XT Gaming X TRIO , Seasonic Prime 850w Gold , Coolermaster H500m , Noctua NH-D15S , CH Pro throttle and T50CM2/WarBrD base on Foxxmounts , CH pedals , Reverb G2v2
CybrSlydr Posted March 18, 2022 Author Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) Obviously, the Quest 2 is very attractive at the price point. Is it an acceptable device? Or do we really want to use something like the Reverb or something? EDIT: Nevermind, I just decided to get the G2. lol Edited March 18, 2022 by CybrSlydr
DeltaMike Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 Nice. Those things (6800xt) are hard to come by. A lot of us are very happy with AMD + G2 you're gonna love it 1 Ryzen 5600X (stock), GBX570, 32Gb RAM, AMD 6900XT (reference), G2, WInwing Orion HOTAS, T-flight rudder

I don't know when these things are ever coming down in price, and I wanted an upgrade. BH Photo made me an offer I decided I didn't want to refuse, so I bit. Should be here early next week.
DeltaMike Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) Check TED's thread on his 6900xt, it'll all be relevant. Especially the parts on tuning. These things aren't quite tuned for DCS right out of the box. But, you can cheerfully ignore all the stuff about FSR mods, as of yesterday that's included in adrenaline Edited March 18, 2022 by DeltaMike 1 Ryzen 5600X (stock), GBX570, 32Gb RAM, AMD 6900XT (reference), G2, WInwing Orion HOTAS, T-flight rudder
