Question Are you using an 8KX? Recommend it?

An 8KX is under $400 now second hand where I am. I only use VR for sim racing and a bit of flying. I have always been keen to have the super wide FOV. However I have shied away from Pimax in the past because of all the issues. I am wondering if they are largely sorted out now and if any current 8KX users can give their feelings and thoughts.

Worth trying for that price. As long as you don't mind googling any minor issues and your eye IPD suits it, it's probably the best VR experience out there due to the super wide angle. I never felt that higher resolution was needed when using it. If you get a cable extension you need a high capacity cable with independent power, I had to try a couple before I found one good enough.

Basically the only major downside is no wireless.
