Is PSVR2 with PC Adapter better than Quest 3 for iRacing & Automobilista 2?

Is PSVR2 with PC Adapter better than Quest 3 for iRacing & Automobilista 2? In this video I am testing out the the Sony PSVR2 PC Adapter that allows you to use you PSVR2 headset on a PC. I will be showing how it works for sim racing games like iRacing and Automobilista 2 and comparing it with the Meta Quest 3. Both headsets sell for around the same price and and both offer a different experience with each having their own advantages and disadvantages. This will be my initial impression of PSVR2 for PC Sim Racing.

I agree with you from a performance perspective, it's pretty much a wash between both. In the end, I switched to PCVR2 from Quest 3 for three reasons:
1). headset weight - to me, the PSVR2 being lighter doesn't cause a weight distribution issue between front and back of the unit. On my Q3, I didn't use a battery back because it isn't comfortable leaning back in my sim rig with a bulge at the back of my head. I can play longer on the PSVR2 as it's less strenuous on my neck. The cable isn't an issue for me as I also used a link cable on my Q3. 2). The ritual of setting up the Q3 for PC gaming - turn on headset, plug in link cable, enable Oculus Link, start Oculus Tray Tool -- at least 5 mins to have everything up and running (and if I skip a step and have to restart the routine, even more). With PSVR2 - start Steam VR, turn on headset -- 20 secs max.
3). Since I primarily use VR for sim racing, I don't even need to pick up the controllers. A couple mouse clicks and I'm driving, while with my Q3, you need to use the controllers to navigate the Oculus menus ... and no annoying pop-ups when the controllers lose tracking in the middle of a game!

Long story long, there's a convenience factor that the PSVR2 introduces vs the Q3 that I don't think a lot of reviewers are really talking about.

Globular cluster has helped me with the sweet spot situation

I have the PSVR2 on PS5 in my rig along with some haptic "stuff, " and I'm happy as a clam! What an experience...

Cas i have been playing around for 3 days with my rtx 4070 set up for ACC and i was so frustrated it was so bad but glad to hear it is the game. I will just stick to GT7 on PSVR2 for now until AC evo comes out to try my luck again with the adaptor.

GT7 with PSVR2 is a gamechanger for me.... absolut dream !

[JunyuVR]

After watching this, I’m pretty much convinced that the Quest 3 is a must-buy for any gamer!

Use open XR and open composite and bypass Steam VR ; Steam VR is a performance hog and you will get anything from 20-30% performance increases .If you are using VD for your Quest 3 use VDXR and open composite, I go wireless on the quest 3 for sim racing using VD it looks better than quest link, to clear the lenses distortion on VR head sets you need to run them at 150% resolution or god mode in VD.

You are one of the few people I've heard talk about the potential of GT7 in VR on PS5 Pro. I think people are not aware how good that would look if they are able to run it at native res and framerate. GT7 is the undisputed king in terms of car models, materials (especially interiors) and lighting. The only caveat is that it does require PD to update the game for this, which is not a given.

(UPDATE) You do not need psvr2 controllers to launch your Sim games on PC. Simply open Steam on your monitor.. click start game And choose run with steamvr. No VR controllers necessary obviously just bind things to your wheel such as map reset VR position map to your wheel or spacebar etc.
I am using the psvr2 adapter myself already.

The scalpers are selling PSVR2 with PC Adapters for double price that's why it is sold out worldwide

[Slyfox]

After using the controllers for awhile it’s extremely easy to pick up . Up front no . But after a few hrs it’s simple .

The latency is way lower in the PSVR2 in 120hz but I think the image and lens were way worse than the Reverb G2. This difference in both points should be even more extreme with the Quest as it has high latency but better lenses. The latency is very underrated… It is lower than my 390hz display (I hit 150ms average in humanbenchmark).

I just want to race Sebring. So I’ll buy the adapter and iracing just for that.

Most people seem to agree turning off motion smoothing in SteamVR improves performance. It did for me and also seemed to improve sharpness and clarity.

[Foddergaming]

I have both a psvr 2 and quest 3, will use psvr for sit down games and quest for freedom

[natevanderloon]

Gt7 is so good because the game was developed around the exact hardware you are using to play it. They cannot do that with a pc game.

[PhotoJohn]

Thanks for the video. I think I’ll wait for the next valve headset, if it ever comes out lol, since I already have a Q3.

The capability of using the PSVR2 on PC is what made me buy one and not upgrade my Quest 2 to 3 😅
The reason is, I love GT7 over all the other titles on my PC.
So I'm on GT7 VR always and now when that adapter is back in stock I'll go to iracing for open wheel in Vr =)

First, I own a Quest 3 and had the device long before this PSVR adaptor was announced. I enjoy the Quest 3 for my SIM racing far as quality and performance. Note: I have a PC with an I7 processor and use a RTX-3080TI for my GFX card. All SIM racing games work well with my PC.

I feel both the Quest 3 and the PSVR headsets are a great buy and should both perform very well with SIM racing. Now the PSVR maybe a little better suited for night racing in leagues because of the OLED lenses and give you better black levels. I guess the FOV is a little wider and the lens resolutions are a little better with the PSVR.

All that said, I will still stay with my Quest 3 for my VR gaming. I have no need to purchase another VR headset at this time just for some minor bump ups in the specs. I am interested in seeing what the Quest 4 has to offer in specifications which is not supposed to be released for 1-2 years- that is if they make this product.

I have tried several different VR products over the years and learned the Pros and Cons of each device. My previous VR headset was the Rift S and I look for VR headsets that have a nice FOV and a large lens sweet spot for viewing games.

For those that don't have a VR headset or have money to burn. I would say either VR headset would be great to have for PC gaming. Just do your homework and watch allot of videos on the VR products.

Last thing. Don't worry, there will be other newer VR products in the near future which maybe better than the Quest 3 and PSVR headsets. Developers are always trying to outdo each other in the VR Technology. Just think a month ago we were talking about the PIMAX Crystal light products. VR is moving very fast in this Technology.

Thanks for your great video. Take care

One important thing you didn't talk about is field of view.. and it seems like the FOV on the PSVR2 has the best FOV besides those pimax headsets.. Someone recorded 116 Horizontal 102 vertical. Another thing is the blacks look way better.
