Pimax 5k Plus latest firmware version

A question. According to PiTool my 5k has the FW version V2.1.255.193. Is this the latest version? If not, where can I find the latest version if necessary? I use the PiTool version V.1.0.1.109.

Yes FW 193 is currently the lastest. Since pitool 109. When new fw is ready often comes with new pitool release.

Talking about Firmware version and all, did anyone tried latest Nvidia divers .69 ?

Yeah I tried the new Nvidia Driver and thought everything looked sharper without changing Pitool settings.

The WIDE FOV still has the bug that doubles the horizontal resolution over 6000. I guess we need Pimax to sort that one out. Even though the bug doubles resolution and FPS takes a whack the image looks less sharp that 3450. Strange. I’m using Pitool at image quality 2 on a 1080ti.

i will download and have a go see if any good.
Would you recommend changing default res in SteamVr to 8192 ?

I would, particularly if you play any games which need Parallel Projection turned on.

You do need to be careful not to exceed the capabilities of your GPU. I managed to get my overclocked RTX 2080 to drop to 1 fps, due to excessive super-sampling.

Thx for your recommendations and hints. Nvidia .69 are beta drivers, right? Can´t find this version either on nvidia.com nor in GeForce Experience.

Pretty sure it’s a typo. The driver released yesterday is 419.67 (not .69) - Previous being .35
