WipeUout Posted May 30, 2022 Posted May 30, 2022 I just upgraded from a Pimax 5k Super to an 8K+. Since the price for the 8K+ dropped to 600 ish USD a couple weeks ago, my 5K Super now worth 900 USD for the 12.5K trade-in program, and not being sure the 8KX would even work with my RX 6900XT, I pulled the trigger on a 8k+. The 8K+ does have the same panel resolution of the 8KX but the image is upscaled from 1440 to 2160 pixels. The resulting image is not as nice as native 8k but the frametime is also significantly less. I used to run my 5K Super at 90hz refresh rate and achieving a solid 90 FPS with low settings and a lot of shimmering without any Anti-Aliassing possible to keep frametime below 11 ms. The experience was nice and very smooth but shimmers were sometime very distracting. The 5k Super lowest frequency is 90hz. Going to the 8K+ solved those issues for me. I run the 8K+ at 72hz refresh rate with good level of details and MSAA at 4x. The difference between a stable 90 FPS and 72 FPS is very difficult to notice unless you roll the aircraft at very high rate. The improved resolution also made the SDE almost gone, difficult to see most of the time. I am now enjoying a better image quality, (still) butter smooth rendering and much greater level of details. Anyone out there with an 8K+ ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 9800X3D, RTX 4090, 96GB DDR 5, MSI Tomahawk 870E, Crucial 2TB x 2, TM WARTHOG COMBO + PENDULAR RUDDER PEDALS, THE AMAZING PIMAX 8K X, Sony 5.1 Spks+SubW | DCS, A-10C_II, AH-64D, F-14/15E/16/18, F-86F, AV-8B, M-2000C, SA342, Huey, Spitfire, FC3.
