It seems like we'll get:
Maybe reduced power consumption due to 7nm. And maybe the best - if it's true:

I got my nice new Zotac Trinity RTX 3090 to replace my good old GTX 1080 ti yesterday!
Pretty well plug-and-play since I already had installed the latest nvidia 461.40 driver and I have not bothered to install/run the Firestorm OC software (= bloatware imho). My corsair 750w gold psu seems to be handling it fine.
Everything is a lot nicer and I can now crank up SS to 2.5 on just about all apps with my Rift cv1 and +200% pixel density with my Vive Pro. Still not that much of a big improvement with cpu limited sims like xp11 (sob, sob), but still helps a bit.

You're my hero - so no problems at all with the CV1, just plug'n play? Awesome 🙂
Still waiting for both small form factor Corsair 750w psu and EVGA XC3 3090.
EDIT: Could you test Lone Echo with all in-game settings maxed? That's TAA + 4xMSAA + res 2.0. Still 90 fps? Even 2080 Ti could not do that. Then the 3090 might be the first gpu to max out the CV1 in current games (maybe same for 3080, God or some other divine creature knows...)

Buying a gpu that will ensure me at least 100% more performance, to be sure that all 45 fps turn into 90 (or close) isn't an easy job.
First of all I'm not sure the pancake benchmarks are valid for VR performance - unfortunately it's often all we got. Some VR benchmarks tell a very different story than pancake benchmark.
For example, MRTV got these results using his RTX 2070 Super and different hmds in the OpenVR benchmark:
Interestingly, I got exact same results with my GTX 1080 8GB as MRTV got with his 2070 Super - also using Index 90 Hz:
Maybe my rig is equivalent to using a RTX 2070 Super, and in many games I do have awesome performance. This means that using a 3080 seems to be the absolute minimum for ensuring minimum 100 % better performance:
- as shown, two 3080 didn't even reach 70 fps, and I'd need like 71 fps to be sure to get 100% more performance. Actually only 3090 seems to be able to provide at least 100 % more performance than my current 1080. Note the above results are usiog 120 Hz, but 3090 is the same using 90 Hz (with the Vive Pro, but Vive Pro is same res as Index):
For now I'm starting to think that 3090 may be the minimum gpu upgrade (or 6900XT) to ensure at least 100 % more performance than my current gpu. 2c.
Yup, doing the above math did lead me to contact EVGA today, lol. And the 21GB vram use in Asgard 😉

Am I missing something? Why would a 3090 not work on a CV1? I ran mine awhile back in Medal of honor for testing and cranked it up with no issues. Also the Lone Echo 2 Experience and gnomes and goblins and a couple other things. Didn't encounter anything unusual.I've been playing a bunch of VR in the G2 and it's fantastic but there are some games I have to scale back a bit. I had to go down to 70% for No man's Sky and Elite Dangerous to eliminate stutter. I may not have had to do that but I got tired of tweaking the settings and that was an easy fix. Would probably need a 5090 to run everything at 150% without any reprojection to get super sharp images but even 70% still looks great though.Supposedly there's a new Nvidia Driver coming or recently out that addresses VR stutter with 3000 series. I may just need to update drivers and give those specific games another go. Majority of games I've tried are fine though.

Tom, another interesting question would be if the 3090 and Vive Pro have made your CV1 completely obsolete? Of course Revive does no revive everything, but it's really close... Are there places where CV1 is still shining? 🙂
