Thank you! Have the new Light and was getting so frustrated, especially with the added burden of rain or drizzle. And running a 4090. Now able to comfortably run 120 with some dips that I can live with. Will experiment more but thank you. Was feeling lost before I found this video.
Using these settings even after the rain update, using a 3070, but with NIS@85% and running at 90Hz, getting a solid 90FPS with occasional dips down to 80FPS when lots of cars(20) are on track with heavy rain. Thanks mate for the great video!
I hope it helps! I omitted some information to keep it short but if you need to gain some extra frames in the iRacing settings uncheck HDR and also lower your Shader settings. Also Foveated rendering actually hurts performance on my system currently it may not be similar on others though so didn't include it in the video.
I have been thinking of going over to Vr for years since my 27" - 49" - 27" takes up to much space. With the Crystal now here there aint really any excuses left
Wow that must be a wide setup! The change to vr will be massive here but if you aren't too invested in extra dashboards or screens on wheels etc I can highly recommend it. 120hz on vr at these resolutions is (and I hate using this term) a game changer!
@@gibilator It is kind of massive and to able to get it to work in iRacing some adjustments in dx11 are needed. 10240 x 1440 :) The thing is that the outer screens are in line with my ears so the Fov is massive, that is the only thing i am concerned about. But i know the feeling Vr gives so it is only a matter of time ;)
I purposefully omitted the first page of the OXRTK because of sporadic effects. I will explore this when the beta is released and more people have it in their hands. YMMV but I had negative effects with FR enabled.
Thanks for this video - so helpful! Can you confirm what App CPU, rdr CPU, and GPU values we should be getting? Both App CPU and rdr CPU should be below 8 or is it just rdr CPU that should be below 8? GPU below 7?
Yeah 7 is the magic number safely for gpu 8 is fine for cpu as I find that is a lot more stable. If you can hold 7 on longbeach or VIR you should be alright everywhere.
Hi mate, iv been using open xr for ages but just made the jump over to iracing. This is one of the best, simple and most concise guide I have seen for open xr tbh. Well done. I see u have a garage 61 guide also which I am watching as I type. Odd question, I seem to be getting some odd voices when using it, any idea how to turn it off? I can’t see anywhere lol, cheers and have a great Sunday.
So kind thanks for the feedback! Concise is what I was going for here. Voices is a strange one. To my knowledge, there is no audio involved with G61 so I would perhaps try muting other sources in windows and see if you can find the gremlin.
@@gibilator it turned out to be irSidekick, which i had installed but wasnt using. i had installed some stuff from their discord and as a result it installed some sorta plugin to crew chief without my knowledge. Wotever from simhub sent me down the right path of what to look for and i was able to work it out eventually. Very annoying. ShortShift was the name of the culprit. Thanks for the reply, take care.
Hey Richard, this is a closed beta firmware which I regret actually showing. It is a sore point for some that it hasn't been released. I can confirm it does have a few slight things to work out before they release but the performance and functions are going to be amazing! Thanks for your understanding.
@@gibilator thank you for responding. when is it supposed to be release. so the auto calibration comes with that version you were showing and not the one i have now just got my crystal yesturday. thanks
Great video! Is there a trick to get iRacing to show up in the Pimax Crystal Light headset? When I launch it via the OpenXR option, nothing shows up in the headset. This method worked fine on my Quest 3. I just got the PCL last night and its frustrating that I can not get iRacing to load. :(.
@@F1StableRankedSetups I ended up returning the crystal light because of the lens distortion and too many little quirky things about it. I have my quest three dialed in pretty well and it is pinned at 90 FPS.
Hi mate! I want to start driving in iRacing and build a PC for this. I can afford high end PC and was thinking about 7800x3d with 4090. I have no idea what headset to buy though. Is that set up good with Crystal and iRacing? Or I should look into something else?
@dr.ronaldoguimaraes6174 check iracing settings capping it. Other weird ive heard doing something similar is if you have vsync on your 2d monitor it can hard cap the headset.
@@dr.ronaldoguimaraes6174Double check that you haven't set a number on "Target frame rate" or "Frame rate throttling" in the OpenXR menu under the performance tab
I have undercooked the settings on purpose here (so to avoid a million comments saying they aren't realistic) My actual settings are a bit higher resolution and a few more things dialled into in game settings like high shadows.
can you please give me your settings for my 4090 what do you have for over ride resolution in open xr and your other settings if you can thank you so much will be appreciated @@gibilator
I can't get to the computer atm. But my resolution is 3400x something. And I actually use steamvr via openxr pipeline atm so that I can use racelabs overlays. You will have to google any of that if you don't understand.
@@gibilator no I perfectly understand it is running so good all I’m going to do is bump up the resolution to 3400. I was also looking for an app to use overlays but nothing to work with openxr can I purchase an overlay program to work with open XR? Thank you so much. i’m going to throw this question out there. I have a logitech G923 every track with I racing seems I cannot get the force feedback right? Do you use auto force feedback?

Nice clear instructions! I have a Meta Quest 3. iRacing looks horrible. My system has a 5800X3D, and 4070 Ti. It looks like the cpu is almost maxed out, and the gpu only at 30_40%. Even though it is a different headset, I will give your settings a whirl.
Hey mate, I have redone this video with some more up to date settings for use with native settings. You may have to scale things slightly for your system but I recommend the newer video as it adds to the settings in this video with some more up to date ones :) it can be found on the Player1 Sim Gear TH-cam page
They are fine. I have helped hundreds of people gain the extra headroom required to get to 120fps. The clarity and texture quality is nearly maxxed. Any extra details are not required and take away from the competitive edge.

Thanks mate! Definately trying to get better. I haven't had much experience in the OG AC, I might have to change that!

Seeing as you are sim centric I would say unless you have a very narrow head or IPD less then 58. The Crystal is definately my recommendation.
And you will be able to run the exact same settings as I am as I am pushing the 4090 to the point it is bottlenecked my 5800x3d.
i do it with 4090 and 3800X3d and come up to 60 FPS. Exact same settings. @@gibilator

Hi people! I cant go above 90fps in IRacing. I have the 120hz mode enable, but in game i am stuck at 90 fps maximun. Any advice for that?
Best port to start is checking where your bottleneck is by checking the highest frame timing using the openxr toolkit.
@@gibilator actually have headroom for both GPU and CPU, but It’s like fps is limited to 90fps maximum
