    • 599$ did not faze you, and YOU PRE-ORDER IT!
    • 599$ puts me into bankrupcy - I will not spend that kind of money - WILL NOT BUY
    • on the fence, will BUY LATER (at retail launch)

Ordered as well! I already tried the previous 1080p prototype, but I can't wait to try the low persistence stuff!

How much better is what I want to know,

 

Dk2 has everything I need,

 

 

If CV has Earphones, Extra USB Ports, etc etc etc, I dont need that stuff.

 

unless its a better screen, then It's pointless to me.

 

I also have to dig for my DVI->HDMI Adapter, since I use all DisplayPorts for my screens.

 

meh, I got til July.

 

On their Blog they quote :

"We’re deep into development on the consumer Rift. We have a lot more planned, including improvements to comfort, resolution, tracking, software, ergonomics, optics, industrial design, and the overall experience."

 

So I will wait for the cv.

 

Neeed.......... to........... resist............the urge.......... to buy.........

 

 

So hard to resist!!! Desperate to try it and also wanna free up some space in my home 'pit'.

 

They do say however that the CV will have higher resolution and refresh rate (?1600p) which is why I may wait.

Very very tempting.

Palmer had said at an interview earlier this year, that the DK2 and CV1 would be the same just one released earlier than the other.

But see this VIDEO

When interviewed with Endgadget, at 3:10 he specifically says that "DK2 is NOT the consumer version." "If you are not a Developer do NOT buy it" (his emphasis to camera, not mine)

 

"CV is going to have Higher Resolution, lower weight, higher framerate, and will be better in so many ways."

".......CV will be 90Hz or higher"

 

Methinks, a new higher res OLED screen is for definite and for that alone I am going to punish myself and wait for the CV, just hope it's not too long. :thumbup:

I want it so bad. Giveme giveme giveme.

I not sure I can wait for the Consumer version.

Only things stopping me is wider support for games I play. (not sure if DCS will natively support Oculas rift positional head tracking by July?) and has anyone reliably sorted out the view distortion needed?

 

I also have no money as getting married in June!! I could order after as a wedding present but then might have to wait ages for availability.

 

Not very confident my 5 year old Intel Q6600 and GeForce 560 Ti 1GB combo will run any games at 1920 x 2160 at 75 FPS!

Why would it need to? the DK2 screen is 1920x1080

hum yes slight miscalculation on my part when I was writing my post I did 960 x 1080 per eye and multiplied both by 2 instead of just the horizontal resolution.

 

Still DCS runs no where near 75 FPS when I am near City's or on busy missions on my current 1920x1080 display.

 

There is talk of the consumer version having a higher resolution panel but I am a bit sceptical because they really want to keep the price down, probable in the second version of the consumer version they will up the resolution I think.

I think people are mixing screen refresh rate with FPS, AFAIK the 75hz is simply screen refresh rate, nothing to do with FPS.

 

Yeah basically you'd never want a higher frame rate than what your screen refresh is as that tends to induce tearing. So in that respect its 'good' that we get crappy frame rates in DCS.

75Hz Screen,

= 75 Refreshes Per Second

= 0.013333333333333333333333333333333 Seconds Per frame

= 13.333333333333333925 MS Per Frame.

 

The thing that needs to be low MS Response time is the Individual PX

 

A Screen can display 75 Fields Per second, but if it takes the individual Pixels longer than say 8 ms to change from red to blue or white to black, then you start having issues with ghosting, bleed colors, etc etc.

 

Pixel response time should be 5ms or lower, I run my games on 2MS response time Screens, and when I goto the other PC that uses an older 7MS Response time LCD, you can see some artifacts/ghosting due to the slow pixels in action / panning scenes.

Dont worry,from what I understand the invoice numbers are scrambled so the number doesnt mean much.

I can wait for CV, gives me more money to spend on an Intel X99 based PC.

Sure, no problem! I have a DK1 already, so you can try that one out too if you want. :thumbup:

Their forum said that that number is randomized so that people will not guess when they will be next in line.

 

 

Did anyone already get a full charge vs 55$? I was under impression that first they charged 55 and then when shipment ready, they would charge full amount.

Catch a train down here to Graz and we'll pop the MiG-21's VR cherry. :pilotfly:

 

You're in Graz? Excellent. :)

Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two.

Come let's eat grandpa!

Thx, feels better now :)

In my case, they charge all amount and immediately recharge it minus $50.

Damn, so tempting...

 

well, no train needed...tomorrow im going to fly to graz in a katana...sure its a bit tight, but there is enough room for mhe and the oculus!

 

Haven't flown Katanas for quite some time, only lots of Cessna experience. Would be an interesting road trip, but I have to work on sunday and saturday is already fully booked. :(
