I suspect Colin is right about the Index and Quest 2 hitting the sweet
spot in terms of drive-able resolution for il2.
The G2 has the added disadvantage of only running at 90 or 60 Hz,
nothing in between.

Hi Bo,
I think it’s really down to what’s out there, available and cost?
The main contenders are:
Valve Index
Quest 2
Pimax 8KX
G2
Cosmos
Valve Index you cannot get hold of for love of money and it’s expensive for the whole system €1000. Pimax sound dodgy of late and expensive €1000+, G2 with your experience of the G1 sounds like a no go. Cosmos not exactly cheap for the full set up. Quest 2 cheap and good(I do think it is good btw) for a stand in until the next Index 2 or Vive 2(rumoured soon, how soon?) come along. Also of course the downer is FB :(.
As a side note I have been trying to get DCS to run smooth of late, cannot get it to do so with the Index, the Quest 2 runs a lot better at a higher resolution than the index can. Also if you play any other PC-VR games Quest 2 ftw wireless;).
I know I am promoting the Quest 2 a bit on the last paragraph, but my first reasoning above tells the story at the moment, unless you know of any other headsets available?
Hope that helps
Colin

I have had my reverb Pro G1 for 14 months and so far I have got 4 replacement headsets and just recieved a cable replacement which did not solve my present problem.
So I’m about to ask for my 5^th headset replacement. I must say that I have lost my patience with this product and I’m thinking on claiming a refund and try out another brand. According to forums the HP Reverb G2 headset do have many of the same issues as the G1 so I’m not to keen on selecting a G2.
What do you guys recommend?
Best Regards
Bo
