memoric Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Can anyone break down your impressions with the Valve Index? Is it good? How is it compared to the reverb? I'm considering to buy either the reverb or the Index. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imacken Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 @memoric https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4289084&postcount=1 sums it up pretty well. I disagree. We have no idea what his settings were for SS etc., and I suspect from what he said that probably none of the headsets were optimised particularly well. I owned both the Index and the Reverb, and I sent the Index back. Don't get me wrong, it is a quality product with a lot going for it, but the resolution and clarity of the Reverb won hands down for DCS. Each to his own.

Mr. Big.Biggs Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 I run the Index, never tried the reverb. Did as much due diligence as I could and frankly the reviews were about 50/50. Until I can run the Index on max with no ghosting or stuttering (or someone confirms the same on the reverb)their is no need for me to try to evaluate one vs the other. It would be impossible for me to determine if one was worse than the other because of a compromise setting to get it smooth, or just plain better. Long winded way of saying you will probably be happy with either choice. Maybe someday when we can max both out, there will be a clear winner. Enjoy! I9 (5Ghz turbo)2080ti 64Gb 3200 ram. 3 drives.
