I am planning to buy a new system so I can finally play MFS2020 in VR. Which of the three setups below would be the minimum to have a good VR performance with the pico4 and which one would be the best deal money/performance? If the cheapest of these three still does a good job, I would definitely p…

no doubt. 3 but take at least two TB. good luck!! ps I have something like this and its amazing!!

Many thanks for the answers! :+1: So the Intel i7-13700KF would not bottleneck the rtx4090? Does it make a huge difference, which rtx4090 model I choose? Palit / KFA2 are way cheaper than the MSI one. I really hoped, someone would say, the RTX4080 will do a great job in VR as long as you do not f…

Well, my 5800x3D/6800XT does a good job in VR, as long as you lower/disable some settings :smiley:

Is anyone running VR on a 4080 and what is it like?

consider the new AMD X3d series, either the 7950x3d or upcoming 7800x3d !

Sadly money is absolutely everything when it comes to VR. Yes you can enjoy a lesser experience on cheaper(ish) kit but you’re always going to think VR would be that bit bitter if only you had a better GPU, headset or whatever. If you can afford a 4090 get one. As for a CPU. I’m sure there are good…

Unfortunately the Pico4 does not have a display port, so it needs even more GPU power to produce a sharp image. But saving money on the GPU could make it possible, to get the next (advanced) headset earlier.

you are absolutely right about that better gpu/headset thing. 2D I do not mind playing in 1080p but in VR you already have to spend a lot to get a similar level of quality. bad luck the prices are through the roof these days for GPUs. I do not really want to wait till mid of April for the new AMD C…

[image] ScarletLlama396: I do not really want to wait till mid of April for the new AMD CPU. But probably you are right with the 7800x3d. Its currently a great time to get a 5800X3D. I just got one for £315. As far as flight sim goes its a fantastic deal. It doesn’t seem reviewer’s are fallin…

[image] Mobias7: Its currently a great time to get a 5800X3D this makes sense only if you currently own an AM4 mainboard. if you have to purchase a board too then the AM4 platform is outdated, makes no sense to invest. wait for the AM5 7800x3d in a few weeks.

New PC setup for VR with Pico4 - Which one?

I tried these settings right here, but then lowered some of them to get a better performance.

Edit: Seems like I had a problem with the cpu cooler. I got a better one now, what is beneficial for the performance. Still struggling to find the best setting though.
