HP Reverb G2 Virtual Reality Headset Setup and Testing - Part 1 - Connecting to PC & SteamVR
This video series shows you how to setup your HP Reverb G2 Virtual Reality Headset on your PC and play games with Stream VR and other standalone games.
In Part 1:
1) I connect the headset to my PC and get it configured
2) Get Steam VR working
3) I show "through the lens" video using a GoPro6.
I've used a VR headset in a science museum a few times, but this is my first headset for my home computer.
I have a custom built (by me) PC powered by:
1) ASUS ROG MAXIMUS X CODE Motherboard
2) Intel Core i7-8700K 3.7 GHz 6-Core LGA 1151 Processor
3) EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti SC2 HYBRID Graphics Card
I normally use a ASUS ROG Swift PG279Q 27" Monitor to play my games on my PC, but some games like driving games and flight/space simulators are much better if you can move your head around and see in different directions.
In the past I've used the Track IR 5 head tracking device for these types of games:

But it's kind of a pain to use. You have to keep your head very still most of the time.
It's still a lot better than just a static screen, but with the new HP Reverb G2, I felt the time had come to upgrade.
I wear glasses, so it will be interesting to see how my experience is affected by that.
