Get RTX 3090 now, or wait until next gen with HP Reverb G2?

After many hours of testing and trying a lot of different setups and combinations ( repro ON/OFF ), here is what gives me the best and most confortable performance results on an I9-10900KF averaging 5ghz in the sim, RTX 3090.

Repro: ON ( Can’t stand judders )
OXR: 65
TAA: 100
457.30
REVERB G2
LIVE WEATHER ( But did 99% of my test in heavy weather)
LIVE TRAFFIC
Mostly rural and bush flying on a 172 classic, high terrain mesh ( Alaska )

I won’t use any superlative like “butter smooth, stutter free” etc…, it seems highly subjective and noone has the same standards nor perception it seems.

I have very few prop artefacts, but they are here, mostly visible on the ground. The roll for take off is ok, once I reach 1000ft, I am pretty much all good and all in the blue. A few micro stutters while banking hard, but overall acceptable given the state of the sim.

Even with that, it still beats the hell out of any other sim I experienced in VR.

best with 457.30

HIGH quality seems to override the other texture filtering setting… One less headache…

Eventhough it’s far from perfect, I’m having a really good time, it feels great.

I got the 3090 because I needed it for work, Cycle render viewport in Blender is just great, I can review model live on zoom with colleagues and clients, in real time and in these COVID time, it’s a life saver. FS2020 was the bonus and not a small one.
