Did anyone here back the kickstarter for the Pimax 8k? I didn't but I've been following it closely for a year so its a relief to see it get close to the finish line. For those who aren't up on this its a VR headset with about twice the field of view that the Vive and Rift has and a lot more pixels for hopefully a sharper image. But will it be sharper? Those pixels are spread out over a much wider area and the extra GPU workload means you will probably need to turn off your supersampling so the question is how does the net effect look? Also the 8k version does not drive every pixel but uses upscaling so their other version, the 5k, may even be sharper. An 8Kx will follow at some point which does drive every pixel and probably will require an RTX2080ti.
It uses the Vive tracking system so you'dneed to be on Vive for now to have the bits to go with it.

Also they had a meetup of kickstarter backers a week ago. A few videos were made of first impressions. No-one tested FS2
