Transition from Rift S to Reverb G2

I owned a rift s with a 2070 super (similar performace as your 1080ti) in December when VR initially came out. Soon after in January I bought the reverb G2 because I wasn’t satisfied with the clarity. The G2 improved the clarity with the 2070 super but wasn’t good enough. I couldn’t get SS=1. In February I bought a 6900 xt and run with SS=1 in the game and SS=70% in openxr. With these settings I can set all the other game settings to high or ultra and the clarity is great.

Note: a big benefit of the reverb G2 is it’s a WMR headset meaning you can run the game using Microsoft’s openxr platform rather than Steam’s openxr implementation. It’s your choice which you use. There’s a noticeable improvement of Microsoft’s implementation over Steam’s for this game. When I run the game through steam I have to lower the settings to avoid stutters and therefore the clarity drops.
