I just bought mine a week ago and they arrive tomorrow, how long are the base station cables, I prepared some things to put them but all depends on how long they are
They are surprisingly long, mine are right now installed in cable channels but from measuring it along the wall it seems to be just about five meters in total. Keep in mind my set is now three years old, it's not impossible that some aspect of the SKU might have changed, but it seems a reasonable to still expect that length.
Cheers! 😋 In this video I was wearing the Nokia Steel HR, which is now sold as a Withings Steel HR, as they purchased the company back from Nokia. Here's the link, they have more models too: www.withings.com/us/en/steel-hr
@@Flies_killer depends on your use case, if you like full-body tracking and generally tend to spend more time in VR, then I would go for index, since it’s basestation tracked, which results in super-easy + super accurate fullbody setup, it’s also wired, which results in no streaming artifacts, no fucking around with battery life and less hassle in general, just click a button on your controller and you’re good to go, also knuckle controllers are unmatched, full finger tracking is highly appreciated… but if you’re getting your first VR headset and just want to experience casual VR, then quest would probably be a better choice (and cheaper, of course)
Nope, controllers connect straight to the headset and I believe if you want to use BT power management for the base stations that is in the headset? In any case, it is not required.
@@pianoplayz7910 It updates it through the cable witch connects to the pc and the controllers and base stations connect via Bluetooth built into the headset.
Base stations don't need an active data connection to the PC, they just connect to power. Then if you can extend the headset cable to reach another room, or drill a hole through a wall, yes you can do VR in the next room over or the floor below, etc.
you can edit commens, and yes the pc dosnt matter the specs and os do, you need at minemum a gtx 1070 and a i7 to run comforablty, and windows is recomended as thats all i know works for sure
@@jandti7335 do you mean if it provides power? I don't think so, that's very unusual for PC devices in my experience, what would be called plug-in power on a recorder. But, I've never used the port myself, so it's just a guess, you'd have to look up specifications to know for sure.
Because my extra base stations had arrived before this, and I already put them up, meaning I could save putting up the included ones until later, giving me a total of four v2 base stations.
It requires DisplayPort, but if you have a Thunderbolt/miniDP on it, possibly. Kind of depends on specs if things will run well, so mileage will definitely vary.
they sell new for $1k which is what makes a lot of people not get them, but you can get a really nice used one for anywhere between $400-$700, im about to get one soon for about $450 (i know this comment is like 4 months old but i figured i'd respond anyways)
I think I will save up for a new pc and then get a index, im not sure if I’m just ganna use my quest 3 instead (no problem about the late reply I actually appreciate you replying)
@@the_real_menomusic what are your pc's specs? you might not even need a new one for the index, if i remember correctly a nvidia gtx 1080 or better gpu can run vr just fine. might not be the best graphics but it gets the job done
@@the_real_menomusic i see, if your computer is kind of outdated i would upgrade instead like you said if i were you. one last thing though, facebook marketplace is probably your best bet for a used valve index btw
Got one question is a 3060 ti and a i7 enough to run a valve?
more than enough

Nice video dawg
Hi there can I ask what watch do you have ? It`s really nice, BTW nice VR collection.

Can you tell me exactly where to put the plugs?
What is the difference between
i wish i could get oen but i have a bunny and he chews every cable he can
Hey man. Can i ask where did you get your desk from
It's really old and something I got for free, I believe it originates from Kinnarps, not sure if available outside Sweden but possibly.
@@BOLL7708 thanks for the response man appreciate it 👍🏻
just got mine and i say its still worthh the price
I just bought mine yesterday, still waiting for it to come. I’m really excited for it
@@hypticxp3827 hope you enjoy it bro
Can’t even buy one in my country 😭😭😭
Do you think it’s better than Quest 3?

hey for all those who have a valve index, do you need bluetooth in your pc for one?, coz mine does not have bluetooth and i really want to get one
Nope, controllers connect straight to the headset and I believe if you want to use BT power management for the base stations that is in the headset? In any case, it is not required.
@@BOLL7708 does your pc have bluetooth in it? and if i wanted to update the base stations, or the controllers how would i do that?
@@pianoplayz7910 It updates it through the cable witch connects to the pc and the controllers and base stations connect via Bluetooth built into the headset.
the clannad ost
Great job keep it up
I'm just wondering. Is it possible to plug in everything to a PC in one room but dislocate stations and play VR games in another?
Base stations don't need an active data connection to the PC, they just connect to power. Then if you can extend the headset cable to reach another room, or drill a hole through a wall, yes you can do VR in the next room over or the floor below, etc.
May I ask what do you do for a living
Programmer
@@BOLL7708 cool, what language do you prefer to use?
And what industry, just curious 😊
I like using C# for unity mobile games
I mean can It still work on cyber PowerPC

Steam has a free software to verify if your computer is compatible
does the mic jack needs power
on the headset

@@BOLL7708 So, it's mostly used for mic. audio
How did you get the eu adapter?
I live in the EU and it ships with it here.
@@BOLL7708 ok
Time travel?

Why did you not get the base station out
Because my extra base stations had arrived before this, and I already put them up, meaning I could save putting up the included ones until later, giving me a total of four v2 base stations.
Can I use this with laptop setup?
It requires DisplayPort, but if you have a Thunderbolt/miniDP on it, possibly. Kind of depends on specs if things will run well, so mileage will definitely vary.
can i have you old valve index please i have a rifts s
I can use a laptop?
Nope
why does bro have a knife just hanging around?
idk
i want a valve index so bad bro 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Yeah but my pc doesn’t work, so instead of replacing my motherboard I think upgrading the whole pc is better.

the valve index is 99$
REALLY????
