A fully loaded VR1 is going to be expensive, we all know that, but its been designed to push to the maximum todays available tech. Some excellent vids online from CEO explaining how they arrived at the design. Their Discord channel is very active at the moment. Place on Reservation queue was placed back in Oct.

I have just built a 7800X3D combined with a 4090 for VR G2 DCS, very happy.and no issues.

Thankyou for your answers.

Question for the VR pilots, are you combining this type of device with Pass through cameras ? So you can operate them in VR.

Currently I also have a G2, but I am also intending to upgrade v soon. I am keeping a very close eye on Somnium VR1 developments. Check out Somnium Discord for blog updates. Really depends on your Price Point and how long you are prepared to wait.

There should be a blog update coming on the status of the Somnium VR1 very soon.

Did anyone here place a reservation for the VR1 and receive an email this morning ?

The lens is not glass, but they are not standard plastic, VR1 is being made with help of VRgineers who have experience of High End Military HMD's . MRTV has an interview where CEO Artur discusses this exact point. There is also an active Discord Group and check out Somnium Space for blog updates.

Somnium VR1 is getting close to release, if the specs are true it will put it above Aero and Crystal, this may be a part of the decision made by Varjo as VR1 has some DNA from Vrgineers, a competitor to Varjo's high-end HMDs.

Agree will not be a logical upgrade path from the Aero, but for those of us on G2's, it will be great to have another choice alongside Aero and Crystal. With the backing of vrgineers helping this project, I am very hopeful.

Keeping a very close eye on this headset, currently using HP G2, more details are expected tomorrow on MRTV.

Please can you consider adding RAF Tarrant Rushton to this map? The airfield played a pivotal role in the capture of Pegasus Bridge.

Agree with all the above comments, thank you to ED for developing and releasing updates to the core engine, MT. VR is always going to be a challenge to performance of both hardware and software. DLSS and FSR technology need to have VR specific branches, otherwise, we will just see more latency introduced. OpenXR Toolkit is a wonderful example of how to gains can be made to VR My hope is that all these small marginal gains can, when added together enhance our experience.

Hi, I currently have a 9900KF G2 and 6900XT running under MT and OpenXR. My objective is to keep 90FPS using OpenXR Toolkit. Really interested to hear from other 9900K users as we wait for 7800X3D as a potential upgrade.

I use the OpenXR Toolkit to help reduce the stress on the CPU (9900KF) I will be honest most of my flying is in low-density theaters with very few assets.
