Oculus needs SLI for CV1- or it will fail

[deathpooldk2]

Hi guys, look, the DK2 resolution is just horrible and the SDE is way too apparent to make any game playable. At first I was really enjoying it, but now, after I have time to play games, I really just can not get into them. The sides are always blurry and you can not see details.

I think the fix is this: Have an average Joe CV1 with a 1440p screen, that supports SLI. Also have a CV1 Premium or something that has a 4K screen, for the person who wants to pay the money, also with SLI support.

Since the cards right now can do 1440p, all in Ultra at over 70fps, if you have two of these cards, each rendering for one screen, then we can already run a CV1 1440p at over 90fps, maybe not all on Ultra, but close.....

What do you guys think? The DK2 is awful really.

Cool ! Another "or it will fail" thread.. I won't feed this.

To clarify: We're laughing about the "or it will fail" part.
Yes, we want better sli support, better screens, fps and so on. But most of these requests have already been taken care of. OculusVR isn't on holiday you know and they have the most capable of people working on every problem they face, including performance issues. Forget the DK2. It's nowhere near the current state of the art.

4K screen and built-in hardware upscaler can do the job, I suppose.

Palmer has said many times that there will not be upmarket downmarket versions of the Rift. The screen resolution is not limited by price but whether the screens exist yet.

"The DK2 is awful really"

What a very silly thing to say.

And if it's so awful , why is it part of your profile name?

Irony?

I feel the need to mention, there are plenty of cards out there that can handle 4k without SLI.
Some cards can handle multiple 4k displays on a single GPU.

Lel, here come the Oculus fanboys, one won't feed me but still replied, and another makes a pointless comment. What a silly thing to say...can you not read between the line and come to some sort of rational conclusion, or are your inference skills the level of a tenth grade? I said I enjoyed it at first, a lot, hence I also made my profile when I first bought it...by awful, I mean I can not really play AAA titles or anything native to a full extent where I am comfortable....the screen quality is way too poor.

Ratman, what card is this? I recently bought a GTX 980, have OCd it, and I can only get 1440p gaming (all in ULTRA, obviously). I am not talking about low settings here...even if it is 1440p, it will still need to render two separate images that are 720p each to get it to work, which the 980 will struggle to do with all eye candy.

Well to be fair...I have the first gen Titan with the EVGA backplate and some other stuff, which when running stock is perfectly able to keep up with ANY demand. (and sadly also has yet to find a program able to utilize all the memory/power) I'd also like to mention the fact that the old 9800GT I had, was really good at keeping up with two monitors (which was all I had at the time).

Let me rephrase something (all of what I've said).

You can have 32 BILLION CPU's and run as fast as a single core if the code is bad, so really, GPU's don't need to improve anymore. The code that uses the GPU needs to improve.
