What graphics card is needed to run this headset optimally, as the resolution is very high?
Hello,
With a GTX 1070 or GTX 1080 the Pitool Rendering Quality is 0.75 and the Steam Super Sampling between 0.6 and 1
This will allow to run between 75 and 90 FPS constant in many dedicated VR games with FOV Small or Medium. I remind you that PSVR runs at 60 fps and that the 90 FPS constant remains a theoretical comfort value that depends on the user. It should be noted that the larger FOV of the Pimax compared to other headsets, especially from the Medium setting onwards (150° - 210°), actually has a beneficial effect on kinetosis by making this feeling of confinement disappear.
With a GTX 1080 TI or RTX 2080 you can set the Rendering Quality to 1.0 or 1.25 and the Super Sampling to 1 or 1.3 to get the same 90 FPS.
Finally, with an RTX 2080TI you can start looking at 1.25 to 1.5 for Rendering Quality and 1.3 to 1.5 for Super Sampling.
I'm using my old "Titan Xp Collector's Edition" where I can run all my applications at 75 and 90 FPS with Rendering Quality on 1.00, FOV on "Normal" and Super Sampling on 1.00
The games used for the tests :
