Valve Index availability rumour

To be honest I'm finding overall experience with the Index to be below my expectations.

What with the glare, the unergonomic controllers, plus there also seems to be issue getting games to run accepably. I'm not sure if it's due to the increased resolution but I'm having a hard time getting games to run without reprojection, even though I've got a Ryzen 3900x and a superclocked 1080ti (Ok it's not a 2080ti, but it's way above min spec). Now I seem to be getting movement hitching with games that feature smooth loco, like Borderlands and Skyrim, where the movement speed will slow down for a moment, then speed up again. I don't even find the tracking that smooth either - it seems more shaky than the Oculus CV1, though again that could be due to reprojection, or maybe it's too accurate and picking up my jittery movements :)

I've tried playing around with the various supersampling options but not found a decent set of settings yet.

It does make me realise how much more polished the Oculus VR experience is.

I'll see how Alyx runs on Monday.
 
Solved the hitching issue by turning off motion smoothing. I'd already turned off supersamping inside Skyrim.
With motion smoothing off I seem to be having a better time getting games to run properly, so it's looking more positive.
