2k or 4k benchmarks results or in-between ?

I play mostly in VR on my HP Reverb G1 and when I look at the specs it says 2160 x 2160 PER EYE.
so when looking at the benchmarks for the 3080 should I look at the results for 2k or what ?
 
In your case it would have a total resolution of 4320 x 2160, aka higher than 3840 x 2160 (16:9 4K). So look at 4K, but keep in mind VR games behave differently so you need to look at VR benchmarks specifically for proper results.

Wow I never knew it was just over 4k ... Ouch!!
The game I play mostly in VR is iRacing which when it was designed it was for monitors anyways , just the last few years they have introduced the ability for it to run in VR.
Where as the likes of HL Alyx you could say is a TRUE VR game , disigned for VR from the start of development.
 
The reverb 2 has the same resolution but isn't that much harder to run then even the valve Index. Roughly 23% less headroom.

That said, by my estimate, with a 3080 running a reverb2, your looking at roughly 10-15% performance increase over what a 2080ti running the index can get.
Roughly
I'll be coming from a 1080ti so hopefully even more eye candy for me.
But maybe after reading above and discovering that the resolution of my VR Headset equates to just over 4K , then I might just hold off and get the 3080ti for little bit extra.
