Whose planning on upgrading from the Q2 to a Q3?

It seems like a lot of incremental upgrades, but it’s a LOT of incremental upgrades.

Cost is definitely a lot higher than I like, close to 2x what I paid for my Q2

    I enjoy standalone VR way more than anything attached with a cable, it’s just much less friction to start and way more immersive. Lately, my Q2 has been getting more and more frame drops and quite a few games are running really badly (especially Ghosts of Tabor, still alpha ofc). I’m dying to get more performance on this headset, anything else is just bonus.

        I get where you’re coming from, but I see that differently. It brings more friction to set that up, many games don’t even release on PCVR anymore, and even if they do it’s always a bit of a hassle to find graphics settings that work (if you’re not spending a ton of money on recent hardware).

        I’ve had a new graphics card on my shopping list for a while. I‘d call myself an enthusiast and I could 100% buy one, but I couldn’t convince myself to do so. I also own a PSVR2, which seemed to me the more friction-less option with some exclusive titles, I haven’t regretted that yet although the cable is indeed annoying.

          i defintly prefer to buy my games on steam, allowing PCVR, over the headset itself. But i’ve always found airlink frictionless. it sets up quickly, and runs well.
