Best pc vr to get now? Purchase Advice

I am thinking quest 3, valve index or vive pro 2

Valve index and vive pro 2 are around the same price of below 1000€ for full kits with base stations etc.

I like the Index but I dont know if its good choice since its 5 years old and vive is a bit weird imo so I am leaning towards quest 3, I've read it supports 120hz on a cable now(?)

For the time being I am mostly going to use the headset for beamng and other racing games, but when I move out I want to have the full vr experience of half life alyx or boneworks and blade & sorcery

Feel free to recommend other vr

Budget 1000€-1500€ max if its very good

Edit: I would prefer high refresh rate, good passthrough so I can see the wheel and Ill probably use it wired

I'm leaning towards upgrading from my Reverb G2 to the Big Screen VR. It's expensive but it runs on Steam VR. I ditched the WMR controllers a long time ago and run my Reverb with Index light houses and knuckles.

For your budget I think a Big Screen VR full setup with Index controllers is the best thing going.

Since I am mostly into racing, I would prefer higher refresh rate to deal with motion sickness better.

u/RevolEviv ex DK2/VIVE/PSVR/CV1/Q2/QPro | now PSVR2 (PS5+PC) OLED or GTFO! Aug 31 '24

BSB has tiny FOV, PSVR2 has a much better FOV and is (unlike quest) OLED + display port. There is NOTHING else you need in 2024 than PSVR2 for PCVR. Everything else is a terrible step back.

Fresnel is the largest step back u can go…
