Hey I watched a review of the G2 from MRTV. now it seems like a really nice headset from what I saw and heard from MRTV. Now my concern is will a 1080GTX be good enough to run DCS?

I currently use a Odyssey Plus and while it works good with that it seems to just run at 45FPS at most times.. I was wondering how well the G2 will do with a 1080GTX and DCS?

I would not like to have to updgrade the GPU and a VR Headset but I know I probally will have to if I want the upgrade.. I was also wondering if you preordered what made you buy now any particulat feature you looking for or at?


Intel i7 10700K @ 4.8GHZ / ASRock Z590 Phantom Gaming 4AC Motherboard / Asus 1080GTX OC / SoundBlaster Z / Windows 10 64bit / Reverb G2 VR Gear. / Thrustmaster Cougar + MFD's / Buttkicker Simulation / Thrustmaster Cougar

I ordered it a couple of weeks ago after watching MRTV.
Looks promising. Seems like MSFS2020 will support the headet too, so that makes it even more interesting.
Read somewhere that my 2080 Super GPU will have some problems running DCS in max setting so that could be a minus.

Waiting for some more ingame reviews . Still more than a month before they release the set.

Another option is that some other product that has better specs will be released or announced before the release..
Then I am ready to cancel the order.

I bought a new rig in May, and I am really happy I didn`t go for the 2080TI GPU seeing the specs and prices Nvidia have set for their 3070/80 range.
I have a sense that timing when to buy a PC will never be right. biggrin

I pre-ordered, fully expecting that I'll need to upgrade my 1080 Ti shortly after.
