VR Days starting shortly

I’d really like to know how Elite performs, but I know that’s not going to happen.

They’re going to demo Fruit Ninja or equivalent which isn’t going to indicate how high end or PP games perform

Asgard’s Wrath would be something though :slight_smile:

I think we’ll be lucky to get anything as complex as DCS up and running at an event like this, but hey fingers crossed

Its not a hard task to find out how it performs. Supersample steamvr to 4k per eye and run the game with your 5k or 8k = done.

Yes true. Although that means it’s not going to work natively :frowning:

Performance is already low on a 2080 Ti before getting anywhere near that. Which is largely down to PP as far as I understand it, the game’s Cobra engine is pretty efficient.

I just hope that lowering the res to an acceptable performance level really looks decently better than a 5k+ as claimed, otherwise there’s actually little point in upgrading without a 3080 or 4080 Ti to go with it.

Anyway, look forward to people’s verdicts at the event :+1:

Just wanted to buy a ticket for 54,- and now the price has risen to 80,-. That’s too much for going to see the 8KX and I don’t care about the rest of the VR days :slight_smile:

When I wake up in 10hrs I expect a Livestream/VODs. A detailed first impression and someone trying to read the worlds smallest text on the 8KX and Pizza.

Deadly silence from VR Days all round (can’t find anyone talking about anything anywhere) - Clearly not a media focused event!

What I understand from Martin posts is that the team will start new HMDs demos today and it will continue tomorrow. Hope we’ll hear something later today.

At this precise moment, someone must have an 8kx on his head.
And it’s not us :expressionless:

You would hope someone would post something soon - if anyone finds a link to some comments can they post them here!

Exactly 2 hours ago it was me :slight_smile:

In short - the technical and product side is better than I expected, the business side is worse. A hard decision for me as a 5k owner what to do.

How good is the 8kx over the 5k? Is all the side gone?
Did it have the new head strap ,is it better?

Feel free to make it long :smiley:

Please make it long while it is still fresh in your memory. Until you don’t forget how it was.
