HP Reverb G2 Virtual Reality Headset Unboxing

This video shows the unboxing of the HP Reverb G2 Virtual Reality Headset.

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 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 my ASUS ROG Swift PG279Q 27" Monitor to play 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.
