I'm interested but want to hear some first hand reviews first. 1200 is a lot to invest into a new setup

I've been using the Occulus for a year or so. It needs better resolution so the Vive Pro seems like it should help a lot. I would have ordered it it I didnt have to purchase the box and controllers to run it. If you already have a Vive then you dont have to get them. I am gonna get one soon but if anyone gets one let us know how it goes. I've got a GTX 1080 TI card so I think im good on that. I also read its gonna have God Rays also and that was something I hoped would be eliminated

Would wait until HTC release their gen 2 sensors to go with the pro.

Anyone got the Vive Pro yet? Still debating whether or not to invest in it.

I went and got two Acer headsets for half the price of what one Vive Pro would cost. Still too bloody expensive.  And I got rid of the Oculus I had.

How did that work out for you, the Acre? In my experience, their tech support for an Aspire Switch was incompetent.  :O

Never had to use their support for anything...other than work with Skuzzy and Hitech when the VR wouldn't work. I personally like it better than the Oculus for clarity of screens and VR room tracking (walking around your VR space), but the lack of pupil distance adjustment is done via software rather than the better lens adjustment in the Vive and Oculus.

Was still checking to see if anyone got the Vive Pro? Curious how much better it would be compared my Occulus Rift. I think we should be able to draw in more VR players soon. It is pretty awesome looking
