Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
In the USA you can get an ok VR set for $200 or less (any Windows Mixed Reality set, hopefully a formerly premium model now discounted like Samsung Odyssey if you go that route, they all have the same less than ideal tracking and controllers, only HMD screen quality and build quality differs per model), a real solid one for around $350 (Oculus Rift S on Black Friday, normally $400, great tracking and great controllers) and $1000 for premium stuff (Index, impeccable tracking and finger/touch/force sensing controllers). The one thing that needs looking up is your IPD cos some sets (anything non-Index non-Odyssey) don't have a hardware IPD switch and the compatible range is smaller when software does the correction. There are a couple other choices to consider depending on particular niche circumstances like Pimax for high res/high fov or various older used kits like Rift CV1 + 3 trackers or a Vive with the intent to upgrade to Index controllers or an Oculus Quest once it proves decent for PC use with the Link software that's now in beta but if you don't wanna bother and just wanna game that's all the info you need to decide. I'd go for the happy medium.Well, that's the game that will make me buy a VR set.
Any recommendations for which headset to go for?
