Thoughts on Dynamic Foveated Rendering in the Pimax CRYSTAL...

After experimenting with dynamic foveated rendering in various titles on the Pimax Crystal for a few days, I decided to give a few quick thoughts on my experience with this feature so far. This feature is currently in beta, and not yet available to all Crystal users, but hopefully it will have a general release soon. [0:00] Introduction and overview [0:10] What is DFR? [1:15] Elite Dangerous and framerate improvements [1:48] PS VR2 uses DFR [2:20] Activating DFR in the Crystal using Pimax XR and SteamVR [3:44] Don't forget to check the box in Pimax XR! [4:25] DFR works and improves framerate [5:55] OpenXR toolkit and MSFS [8:34] 20-30% improvement in framerates in ideal situations [9:00] OpenComposite and DFR? [10:22] Trial and error with DFR for now [12:38] Wrapping up 🔸 SUPPORT IMMERSED ROBOT 🔸 PURCHASE MY VIRTUAL REALITY SCIENCE-FICTION NOVEL, 'THE MEMORY ENGINE': Kindle/paperback (UK): https://amzn.to/3depUvI Kindle/paperback (US): https://tiny.cc/ob7ksz Audible (UK): https://tinyurl.com/y2f529my Audible (US): https://tinyurl.com/7bca5z24 IMMERSED ROBOT MERCH: https://immersedrobot.creator-spring.com VR HEADSET WALL MOUNTS AT MY ETSY STORE: https://immersedrobot.etsy.com/ 🔸 PC SPECS (+ AFFILIATE LINKS ON AMAZON)🔸 MY PC: Gigabyte RTX 3080 Graphics Card (https://amzn.to/3wJXUJB) Ryzen 7 5800X3D CPU (https://amzn.to/3w5XePi) 32Gb DDR 4 3600MHz RAM (https://amzn.to/2ZVcleh) 1TB Sabrant Rocket M.2 SSD (https://amzn.to/3b1e08B) ASUS Prime B550M-A Motherboard (https://amzn.to/3sUm5C0) Deep Cool Neptwin V2 CPU Cooler (https://amzn.to/3c7Bzf3) VR HEADSETS AFFILIATE LINKS: Valve Index (https://amzn.to/3sxdyou) Meta Quest 2 (https://amzn.to/3oHQaVl) Pico 4 (https://amzn.to/3eHh91N) Meta Quest Pro (https://amzn.to/3CKAfMG) OTHER EQUIPMENT: TP-Link Archer AX1800 WiFi 6 Router (https://amzn.to/3u9Ahbb) Thrustmaster T.Flight Hotas One (https://amzn.to/3swRpX9) Thrustmaster T150 Force Feedback Racing Wheel (https://amzn.to/2Ocj8ht) Blue Yeti Microphone (https://amzn.to/3aYZ0rL) Logitech C920 Webcam (https://amzn.to/37Qgxk0) Yoleo Gaming Chair (https://amzn.to/3PKKwAH) Leap Motion hand tracking module (https://amzn.to/3lxxK8Y) Antlion ModMic Wireless (https://amzn.to/3wwraE6) KKCOBVR Q2 Battery Strap for Quest 2 (https://amzn.to/3GE6JZA) 🔸 SOCIAL LINKS 🔸 TWITTER: @ImmersedRobot (  / immersedrobot  ) THE IMMERSED ROBOT DISCORD COMMUNITY:   / discord   MY AUTHOR WEBSITE: https://www.garywalkden.com #VR #DynamicFoveatedRendering #PimaxCrystal #DFR
