PC Upgrades for a VR Player

[UncleStains]

About 6 months ago I built my first gaming PC in 20 years. I was aiming for a general gaming rig, but I got into DCS and now I have an absurd (to me) setup and I'm already thinking about upgrades.

 

I play 100% VR and have no interest in playing on a flat screen. My main modules are the Huey, Apache, A-10, F-5, and F-18. I do a little IL-2 Flying Circus, but that already works pretty smooth. On DCS I get a steady 45 FPS with decent visuals. I'm most interested in a crisper view of the cockpit.

Based on my current system, what is my best upgrade path?

 

• Quest 2 with prescription inserts
• RX 6800 CORE
• i5-12400F 4.4 GHz
• 32 GB RAM DDR4 3200 MHz (2 open slots)

 

• Virpil collective
• Warthog stick/throttle
• MFG Crosswind V3 pedals
• Virpil CM3 base/extension/Alpha grip "order processing" for 5 weeks

Good morning,

Can you post your settings, then we can see what you have set and what helps you to what extent.

Also the Oculus settings.

Render resolution and bit rate and co.

I personally fly the AH64 in VR with an RTX3060TI (still) and use about 4400 x 2300 (can't remember exactly, I could check tomorrow afternoon) and 2xMSAA.

This is going very well in the Caucasus. But not on the Mariannas.

Post what you have set up so far.
