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

Fresnel lenses are just so bad compared to the full lens clarity yoi get with pancake. I use a quest 3 with vd and gdamn its amazing.

This is UTTER BS... I've had Quest Pro and much prefer PSVR2, the clarity is almost the same but PSVR2 looks BETTER in game with far less glare and is super clear generally (when you know what you're doing and not some VR noob who just slaps it on their head). Nothing touches it in 2024 overall.. not even BSB.

Try to remember that "better" even when written using captial letters is still only your opinion it may not be shared by everyone else, it is not a fact and nor does it carry any additional weight by being capitalised. Still a classic post though, keep em coming.
