Thanks for all the help. Fogging is a pain so I am trying some of your suggestions, heating lenses seems to work.
Bumpy SRV ride on the other hand :x[down] (I guess I will have to train myself slowly for this one as I love the SRV)
Finally, SLI.
Shame, I know FD have many other problems to solve first,but would have loved to be able to go 90fps stutter free and everything maxed.
Next year's project for me,as I find it fun, was a quad card SLI rig + water, which I might still do. Currently waiting for the 1180ti and a MBoard that does X16 on all 4 channels but I guess the limitations(currently I see X16 for 3 channels and X8 for the fourth) are CPU related ? (CPU lanes)
And @ others: I have ASW on by default and I don't ever have any graphical problem at all - never, from my VR beginning in Elite (November 2016 until now). Regarding Oculus, ASW is a technique that other VR goggles lack of, so USE it ! Graphics quality of course is important but for comfortable playing (e.g. in buggy on planet surfaces) it's all about FPS ! As said in other threads, I only have an I5 6500K @ standard clock, 16GB RAM, SSD and the GTX 1070 AMP Extreme - with this, SS at 1.5, and nearly everything on High and Ultra, even on planet surfaces, I am at 90 FPS anytime. Optimize your system in general, I killed many Win services that are absolutely superfluous to gamers, here a few percent and there and you might get 5-10% more overall performance out of the whole system, it's worth it - at least I for myself can't spare that optimization process when configuring a new machine.
EDIT (as always....): goggle fogging - I let the Oculus warm up about half an hour before playing (start Steam VR, launch game in VR mode, stay in Elite start screen), in very most cases the Oculus got so warm that it doesn't fog any more for the rest of the session; any time soon I'll modify the Oculus upholster myself, I planned to rip off the foam and will try to make a new leather upholster instead, if I can't get smooth leather I'll try a selfmade cottonpad, fixing will be with a band of velcro on the frame so that it can be taken off and washed/cleaned up any time.
