 It is April 2024, and I have decided to create this page to share my settings for my Pimax 8K X VR headset that gives me awesome looking graphics and 90 FPS in iRacing.  But first, there is a LOT of misinformation out there.  I've looked at different posts on different forums and on Reddit and there and some of it is garbage.  I used to be a professional game developer (Bethesda Softworks, Rainbow Studios, THQ) working mainly with graphic engines so I should know what I am talking about when it comes to this stuff.

 Here are some tracks that I've tested these settings with so far, and the resulting frame rate.  These were tested with all of the recommended options without resorting to doing any of the things listed in the above "Still Not 90 FPS?" section. This list will grow slowly over time.

 ===== Videos =====
-Here is a video of a Rain Master event at WeatherTech Raceway with 15 cars and rain. When at the grid the frame rate does go down to around 80 FPS, but then as the race progresses the frame rate climbs to 90+ and stays there consistently.
+Here is a video of a Rain Master event at WeatherTech Raceway with 15 cars and rain. When at the grid the frame rate does go down to around 80 FPS because my CPU isn't fast enough to feed the GPU beast. As the race progresses, the frame rate climbs to 90+ and stays there consistently. This video was taken with upscaling (NIS) turned on in the OpenXR Toolkit settings, and was recorded at 1080P @ 60 FPS.  The recording shows only a small 1920x1080 region of the full 4K left eye image.
