I have a Pimax 8K and I will use it exclusively to watch 8K VR porn videos. Now I need to buy a suitable graphics card. Is the MSI GeForce RTX 4060 VENTUS 2X BLACK 8G OC sufficient?
Recently I upgraded an ASUS 570P to an ASROCK B650E Steel Legend plus a Ryzen 5950X to a 7800X3D and also moved across a Zotac Gaming Geforce RTX 4090 AMP Extreme AIRO 24GB graphics card.
Prior to the change, my Pimax 8Kx was the Mutt's Nuts...afterwards I was getting 10600, 10634 and 10934 errors - 'Headset Disconnected/ Disable Onboard Graphics ( Done in BIOS and through Device Manager) Plus a Yellow/ Amber LED on the headset.... I have tested all three Display Ports - each port is working OK - I would be very grumpy & pi**ed off if the headset has gone TITs up as it's not even 18 months old yet and it's out of warranty - I emailed PIMAX more than once and all I got back was 'Check connections/ disable onboard graphics blah blah blah and 'Case closed bye bye'
Thanks in advance
Dave

Gotta problem with my new Pimax 8kx. Am running a 3080ti gpu with an i7700 kaby lake cpu. With 750 watts power. So above recommended specs from Pimax. I only use VR for flight simulation namely DCS and Xplane 11, no other games or uses. Gave up on steamVR after two weeks of tweaking and achieving miserable frame rates ,down to 19 fps which is unplayable. So read about open XRtoolkit ,followed VR sim guys install video and It now works without steam VR. Good news 60 FPS and clean clear visuals ,bad news overlapping visual image I can’t get to fix. Have tried parallel projection on and off ,setting in the pitool version that supports openXR set specs to minimum,nothing corrects the overlap binocular effect. Has anyone got any ideas on this problem.It’s not a headset issue as the image is fine back in steam vr.? Living in hope Bristowvet.( please keep any advice simple as you’re replying to a genuine computer dimwit here)
New headset arrived from Pimax store. I changed it from 5ks. Connected just like the 5ks was and then it started to firmware upgrade. Since it happened piitool says usb and hdmi/dp connector dont attached. Tried to roll back earlier firmwares in manual dfu mode but all times I get white led on headset and same problem.

Anyone interested in a new 8KX with eye tracking, comfort kit, and a few other accessories? I am selling mine, only tried it once but my computer wasn't strong enough to handle it. I can ship it out same day with fast shipping.
I'm looking at buying a new PC and I was wondering what card would you recommend for the 5K pimax
Can any one explain the differences please?
Thank you
Hey folks ,
Recieved my shipment status from pimax that said it's due this coming tuesday to be delivered and I'm stoked!
However the wording is confusing me as it says 1 of 1 - pimax 5k plus virtual reality headset. This completes your order.
I got the bundle with knuckles, stations and comfort kit.
Anyone know if that's all I included in this summary? Is the wording just off (English translation maybe )?
Cheers
[Solved] My display suddenly stopped working one day I tried almost everything reinstalling the Graphics Drivers and Oculus (waste of time) then I decided to buy a Pimax 5k plus and then a similar issue occurred with the Pimax 5K after months of using it except there were colorful snow and a flickering display. I replaced the cable that connected to the Headset and it instantly resolved the issue with that headset. So I decided to replace the cable that connected to my Oculus Rift as well and found that resolved the no display issue 100 percent. Anyone having this issue can solve it 100 percent by changing the HDMI cable that connects to the headset. It is not a driver or software issue it is the Cables. I want to share this with everyone as it took me a long time to find this solution. Resolved!!!
From Pimax:
"Hi, the headset is still in the R&D stage. When we have new progress, I'll give you the latest news. Thanks for your support and patience."
For those who were wondering. All 3 of you.
Hi Pimaniacs,
I am desperately trying to play the new oculus exclusive Defector game with my Pimax 5K + But I can’t sort it out...
The games won’t even launch and I get an application error message (red sign with the cross: the app didn’t launch properly blabla click on ok to close the app)
I have tried many times with revive 1.6.4 (my entire library works except Defector)
I heard somewhere people playing the game with revive 1.7.0.3
But for me with revive 1.7.0.3 my entire library gets an error message at game launch. I can’t even launch any game...
I have the latest Pitool version 132-212 & 144 beta (tried both) Latest oculus launcher version 1.38.0.261476 freshly updated because nothing seemed to work so I freshly reinstalled oculus launcher through the oculus website installer.
Don’t know if it is related but I am on windows 10 freshly updated.
So far I reinstalled Revive 1.6.4 seeking for a good soul to guide me in...
I am really out of solutions...
Has anyone any idea ?
Do you guys face the same issue? Am I alone in this situation?
Thank you all for your feedbacks.
Cheers
I'm a backer of Pimax 5k and received a useless brick insted a hmd. It just don't turn on and I alredy tried everything. I alredy opened tickets but have no anwer.

Quoted from facebook:
"Pimax That's a very good question. We use customized low persistence liquid (CLPL) display. CLPL is a new patented display tech we developed with our partner for VR specifically. CLPL Display featured with less liquid respond time and higher refresh rate. We have completely eliminated ghosting and improved brightness with the CLPL display. CLPL tech is on the same level with OLED in VR era. There are only minor differences in color contrast/temperature between CLPL and OLED, also, CLPL can reach higher PPI / PPD with the same cost. Our founders have over 20 years R&D experience in display era, including many years in VR. Some of the core team members come from display industry and maintain close relationships with display suppliers. That's also one of the reasons why we care about visual so much."

I was at a garage sale, and found one laying there with a few google cardboards. Got it for an unbelievable price! $15. Was new in the package. Got home, hooked it up, and it works great. Typing this from it, using BigScreen VR.
I'm looking to get into VR, but don't have a ton of money. I have an Inspiron 7559, with a GTX 960M and a core i7. Will I be able to run the PIMax with this hardware?
