at under £400 inc the PC adapter it's hard to argue against it. It does somethings very well, but others not so well but for that price it's a good buy.
PS(PC)VR 2, anyone interested?

I picked this up from playstation direct for £350. I am looking forward to getting into some sim racing.
This will be my first vr headset

I got mine the other day playing gt7 in VR is really good a little low res but what do you expect (i'm used to the Varjo Aero) but it's got to be one of the most uncomfortable vr headsets ever and it feels cheap too :S
The OLED is really nice and the lenses aren't bad for fresnel's but i have a small ipd of 62 and the lenses pinch my nose after an hour it's painful
PSVR2 looks quite a bit better plugged into a PC. It doesn't fix obvious issues like it being fresnel but the image is a lot clearer from a higher resolution. Other annoying thing is the controller battery life, they only last like 2 hours on a charge

yes i was playing it on PC last night even though my Bluetooth seems a little flakey with the controllers! i was running the same res as my Aero i was quite impressed! quite why bluetooth wasn't integrated into the pc adaptor is a bit of a fail imo
The OLED is lovely mura is a bit distracting but you look through it really GT7 is another game in VR though the "presence" is great

I figured out yesterday why I was getting a bit of lag in AMS2. Realised that the PSVR2 is much harder to run than the quest 3 over link cable.
Quest Link Max Res (5408x2896) = 15.66m
PSVR2 (3400x3468)x2 = 23.58m
fpsVR indicated similar percentage hit so need to start tweaking a few settings, although the quest 3 is miles sharper, there are some other reasons I'm trying this one out.
Has anyone tried 120hz and keeping a steady 60fps in game? does motion reprojection on it work well or should I not bother

Just realized I need a display port cable too! Luckily they're cheap and easy to get for next day delivery, and I'm planning on setting up the headset tomorrow anyway.
Really Sony should have had integrated BT and an included display port cable for the adaptor. It's a bit of a faff really having to get these extras, which bumps up the cost a bit.

I am kind of shocked that a guy like you, interested in computers and displays, wouldn't have a display port cable lying around?
I probably do, somewhere, if I can dig it out. Easier just to get a new one.
I eventually did this (opted for HonsVR) and it made the experience much better (while also avoiding lens scratching).
Comfort was a problem for me, I bought the globular cluster Comfort mod, the difference is massive
Any tips on setting the the GC up? I found it slightly better, but not a game-changer for comfort / sweet spot. I've tried different combos of the various cushions. What worked best for you?

Had a mess about with mine yesterday. Headset plugged directly into the 7900xt and using the Bluetooth on my MSI x670e tomahawk.
No issues at all with the controllers.
First impression was very good, first time owning a vr headset and can't wait to dig more into sim racers and finally put some use of my Fanatec CSL DD.

I ended up with the soft cloth on the front and cooling gel with rubber cover on the back
