Upgraded from a potato to a 7800X3D + 4080 SUPER just for VR flight simming. Only have an Quest 2 for now, but I'll be getting an Quest 3 next. Very excited!

Steve, thank you for another great comparison video. I bought the Varjo Aero years ago after watching your review, also with the Pimax Crystal. I just ordered the Somnium VR1 with eye tracking. You have been spot on with your reviews and that makes it easier to make decisions about purchases. The sound isn't an issue for me because I use Steel Series Arena 7 gaming speakers behind my DOF. I like hearing the monster base it makes when the engines spool up!!

I am so ready to try this via Xbox Ultimate. Just finished my 5800X3D / 32GB Ram / 6800 XT setup complete on air, which is driving a Pico 3 Neo Link either via DP or Virtual Desktop via an Asus AX57 WIFI6 Router. I would not had thought a 6800 XT is that competent at wireless VR, but fps, clarity and frametimes are top notch. RDNA2 drivers have come a looong way. AND Displayport if the extra oomph is needed, like MSFS. Pico Software is matured, last update was a week ago ! Virtually Real even has improved custom DP drivers out there for free on Github. Having it either wireless or DP for that money its an absolute shame it never got reckognition it deserves.

IL-2 and DCS user here. I just upgraded to a Q3 (running a link-cable, of course) from a Reverb G2 and I couldn't be happier. Not only is the picture quality/clarity way better, there's also none of that "tiny sweetspot"-stuff going on with the Q3. So nice to be able to simply glance down at your instruments instead of having to tilt your entire head down to read those dials. Plus - and this really surprised me - my games run *so* much better now. I was using OpenComposite/OpenXR on the G2 already and still use it on the Q3, but I didn't change any other hardware. i7-14700KF, 32 GB of 3600 DDR4 and a 4070 Super ... and I'm getting rock solid 90 FPS in IL-2 in missions that would've made my G2 stutter down to 70 or 75 FPS in busy scenes. And that's in 90 Hz, at 1.4x resolution in the Oculus app with no NIS/FSR-nonsense in OpenXR Toolkit (just the CAS filter) *and* with higher in-game settings than I could run before. I even tried 120 Hz but at 1.2x resolution and that too ran very smoothly and at a constant 120 FPS. Haven't done much in DCS yet, but I did try an A-10 training mission on 90 Hz with just the stock "VR" preset selected and it too ran a constant 90 FPS. So far, I'm very impressed with this set - especially considering its price.

@@jamieh8240 Yeah... I know. A squaddie got a Crystal right around the time it launched and I got to try it at a LAN event. He hadn't optimized any settings yet, so performance in IL-2 was a bit choppy (even on his RTX 4090) but FOV and picture clarity were quite something on that thing. It was like looking at a 1440p or even 4k monitor - but in a VR environment. Problem is: 1700 EUR + another 1700 (more like 2000 these days) for the Crystal and a GPU to drive it? ... No thanks! :) Even if I add up the cost of both the Q3 and my current 4070 S, that wouldn't be nearly enough money to buy *either* the Crystal or the 4090.

@1SaG The Crystal does take a lot of tweeking to get it right (it took about 2 weeks for me) With the Q3 I used Steam Link, with the Crystal I'm using openXR. On a 4070 I'm getting around 85fps so it runs great. I only use the Crystal for flight sims and the Q3 for everything else as there certainly isn't anything wrong with the Q3.

Still rocking my Quest Pro going into 2025. I'm still happy with it and can't really afford both a high end new HMD and a 5090 so need to pick one or the other, at least for the next few months. Nothing else compels me to purchase yet, microOLED and top quality pancake optics essentials for me in an upgrade. I'll probably get the 5090. I assume we will need it for MSFS 2024 if we want ray tracing enabled and all the new graphical enhancements for the ground terrain.

Bro stop planning to waste money. Just buy a Radeon 7900XTX right now. 5080 is probably going to be like $1200 to $1500 and around a 4090 in performance, that's not that much faster than a 7900XTX. 7900XTX around $800 right now, plus it has 24GB VRAM which will be nice for high resolution HMD's, 5080 will have 16GB. Ryzen 9800X3D is coming in 2 weeks so you can build soon 👍🏿

Excellent comparison, as usual! As the Varjo XR-3 is now being sold without added subscription costs (sold with a Lifetime subscription) for a cost almost identical to the VR1 you may want to revisit it at some point... the 70PPD is amazing in sims that support it..
@AKCobra1120

Awesome comparison. One thing to keep in mind is that you'll need a fairly beastly PC to play FS24 with Pimax or higher resolution. Of course you probably need a beast of a PC to play it at all in VR with any headset anyway lol. I have a Quest 3 because I do a lot of other stuff besides flight/racing sims, but I completely agree with this recommendation. If you play other VR games, get a Quest 3. If you strictly do sim type experiences, get a Pimax. I'm really interested to see what the Pimax Crystal Super comes in at. I'm currently saving for a 5090 (or 5080, depends on pricing) though, so it would be a next year thing.

Bit ago i mentioned my issue with pimax lenses so ill leave an update for people who are considering it: They were decently quick to reply, was about a day from me contacting via support website, they immediately told me they'd be sending me new lenses that i could replace myself (they have a video showing how to on their channel). All I did was send a recording using my phone's camera through the lenses showing the issue. The longest part is the shipping depending where you are, its coming from china I believe so it takes about a week for the courier here in EU to process the package before sending my way, so it'll take 3-4 weeks in total. Thankfully my lenses weren't bad to the point of being unusable, but a much smaller sweet spot than intended due to warping.

Appreciate this great comparison video, Steve. Currently have a Reverb G2 and Q3; for its slightly lower resolution, the Q3 edges out the G2 in almost every respect. Plus, I'm on Windows 11 and understand Microsoft has announced the official end of WMR support for Win 11 (Win 10 users safe for now) so the G2 is End of line for me. Really want to see your deep dive into the HTC Focus Vision before setting my sights on a Q3 replacement, and also need to know if/when Pimax gets its quality issues completely sorted. Spending a lot of coin on a Pima headset only to have to send it back for a replacement is just not acceptable. (Having said that, I did have to return for exchange my first Quest 3 due to 'always on' pixel issues, so Pima isn't the only outfit with quality problems).

Its so hard to choose a headset now with MSFS 2024 coming. The difference between the VR1 and Crystal Light looks very big. Was that through the lens at full native resolution? Is it possible that Pimax implements the Nvidia sharpening technic too? That price for the VR1 is that high. 😢 I would love to support that made in EU Point but 3000€ incl Taxes hurts that much. With everthing around that hobby I can make a real pilot license. 😢 And the crystal super isnt released now.

Simple question: I know the Quest 3 is not going to give the same great images as the Crystal Light. But which of those 2 headsets has the best fps performance? I'm guessing the CL will perform better with better fps, and therefore less likely to stutter or jitter.

@a5cent
@a5cent Ай бұрын
​​​​@@VRFlightSimGuy How does a PCVR headset affect stuttering? It's just a fancy display. Moreover, how would a CL provide him a higher frame rate than a Quest 3, when a CL requires his GPU to push double the pixels? With the Quest 3 he'd be trading on sharpness for higher frame rates, but if higher frame rates are the primary concern, a lower end headset would be the better choice. Right? Or a better PC of course.

I wish I could agree with you on the Pimax Crystal Light! I have one and even after a month of Pimax helping me by sending thicker facial foam pads is just simply doesn't fit the shape of my face. It is so wide it need clamping so tight to stop it flopping side to side it hurts and then the advantage of the thicker foam to stop it resting on my eyes is lost. All that and I don't feel my head is exceptionally unusual, Reverb G2 fits really comtortably. Trying to return it but Pimax have now gone comms silent!

Thanks for all the comments guys but the last thing I expected when paying nearly £1000 was to get a DIY upholstery project. The fit is just the start of it and if I could have fixed that within the return period, initially 14 days extended to 1 month by Pimax, I would have persevered but alas I couldn't in the time allowed and I'm not going to risk being stuck with such an expensive item that doesn't work for me. I'm not as experienced with VR HMDs as some of you but this CL would be my 4th (starting way back in the Rift CV1 days) and the only one that needed anything other than settings tweaking out of the box.

You can adjust the brightness yes. Glare depends on the scene.
@SargonDragon
@SargonDragon Ай бұрын
Reducing brightness on the Beyond does lower glare. And up to a point, because it has a perfect 3D printed light seal for your face, the headset will not seem less bright because your eyes adjust. Glare is also reduced by getting your eyes closer to the lenses. You can order thinner cushions from Bigscreen, and they'll reuse your previous face scan to make the new cushion. Ideally, your eye lashes would be just short of touching the lenses. However, even at best, the glare does not go away. It is definitely the achilles heel of the Beyond. In my opinion, it's still the overall best VR headset on the market anyway despite this. But that opinion is going to be affected a lot by however much glare bothers you.

I bought the Varjo Aero, then the Pimax Crystal (the first one), and I sold both headsets because of those damn aspheric lenses. From now on, I'll never buy VR headsets with aspheric lenses again, it'll be pancake lenses or nothing. And if all VR headsets come out with aspheric lenses for the next 10 years, well, I'll just keep using my Quest 3, it'll be a nice saving :)

@@cedrick7679 The Crystal Light is the first time Pimax ever released a product anywhere near when they said they would. And this was a product that was _deleting_ features from the previous Crystal rather than adding new ones. Which is also the first time Pimax has ever done _that._ So there's a big question here as to whether Pimax has turned over a new leaf or whether the Crystal Light was timely only because of the special nature of it. The Crystal Super was supposed to release in September according to the same announcement. How's that going? But besides the Crystal Super in general, Pimax was also really unspecific about the OLED module's specifications and timeline. And they've said the OLED module will be releasing later after the QLED module. If you look at Pimax's history with that sort of thing... I'm not saying it's impossible that they'll release it soon after, but it would be the first time in their history. It matches the pattern of other perpetually "just around the corner" Pimax products. Sometimes the products this company announces are real and sometimes they're vaporware.

Hi, you can get lens inserts for the CL, VR Wave are a channel sponsor SO I have 5% off, however, they will stick out a bit so you will need a thicker facial foam than the stock one. I still think it's a much better solution than wearing your glasses as you will run the risk of scratching your headset lenses.

The focus distance of the Crystal Light is 1 meter. So however you are able to see at 1 meter distance without your glasses is how well you will see in the Crystal Light without lens inserts.

VR flight simulation relies heavily on having a high-performance PC, which is expensive. I wonder when we’ll see the first true VR flight sim streaming platform. Meta should really explore this idea.
