HP Reverb G2 Arriving

Good luck guys! I’m on my second G2. Main problem with the first one was it got dropped on the floor :astonished: (not by me I may add…). Loads of advice on the forums. I’ll highlight two points:

As said above, the Reverb G2 can be a bit sensitive to the USB port. I’ve had problems with some of my computer ports somewhat randomly … I use a powered USB hub now which seems to have done the trick.

On the small focal area, It does seem to be better if you can get your face as close as possible to the lenses. I’ve figured out that I need to wear the headset in ‘just the right position’. It may take a little while to find that ‘just so’ position and of course it’s an individual thing. I also wear glasses which adds to the issue, but don’t have any problems now. The face gasket will compress a little with use which I found helped.

I drive mine with a I7 9700 + RTX2080Ti and get reasonable quality and performance. Once you’ve got it set up and used to it, you’ll be addicted! I am. Thought I could manage without when my G2 got broke. Turned out I couldn’t - hence the expenditure on a second one…
