I am not an 'Avid' FPS watcher and not one who gets all shirty if it drops below 90FPS. I play the game, and if the game jumps too much or lags or stutters then i drop these settings, but i can honestly say after a complete rebuild, ridding my gaming PC of all the years of junk and crud that i downloaded to tweak this, and monitor that, that my Rift experience is better than ever. I introduced RIFT 14 months ago after a lot of the crud had already been downloaded, so never had this buttery smooth experince i am now having.
I have now NOTHING but the bare essentials loaded onto my high end gaming rig, to play the game in VR. I only have one add on to the gane ED Engineer and of course the 'I can;t do without this programme 'Dr Kaii Profile Editor' So this VR experince i am having now has for me NEVER BEEN BETTER.
BTW My rig is:
Overclocked Coffee lake i7 8700k, Nvidia 1080Ti Extreme (Not Overclocked), 32Gb DDR4, Samsung EVO 960 M.2 500Gb Drive (Foe OS and Elite) , twin Gb Samsung 960 SSD's, Bridged twin network ports, Rift VR, Custom watercooled full loop inc GPU, latest Rift and Green Team drivers, all put together by my fair hands.....
