    It's only at 72fps, medium resolution. I tested it with my 1080ti and my 1060 and did not notice that much of a difference. But, I am not good reference as I'm not aiming for the perfect visual when I'm concentred on the perfect motion sensation (that I never get).

    I have used the rift cv1 and the quest 2 and I have to say the quest is awesome for sim racing via link cable and would recommend all day long.

    I have used oculus CV1 and now i buy Quest 2 what had so much better image but because my IPD is 72mm i cannot see image clear all around. Only in the center about 30 degree is clear, but still i like this more because there are not that grid what you see in CV1.

    I used the Rift S, had problems with losing the play area. The cable quickly becomes unusable and is quite expensive. Now I'm using quest 2. I like it better. The internal battery drains only during extended play.

    In my opinion oculus quest 2 is the best choice (price vs quality). Quest 2 can you connect to pc by wifi 5g.

    Quest 3 is more better but also more expensive.

    Hi Bartosz
    I agree with you, value for money the quest2 is the best choice.
    quest3 offers nothing more for simulation gamers other than image resolution
