CRYSTAL & AMD-GPUs

Lieber AoiCider,

Einige AMD-Grafikkarten können unterstützt werden.
Zu den Karten, die den Test bisher bestanden haben, gehören: 5700xt/6700xt/6950xt.
Wir testen noch andere Modelle.
Zu diesem Zeitpunkt wird immer noch empfohlen, eine Grafikkarte mit 3070 oder höher zu verwenden (nicht empfohlen für 3090ti).

Mit freundlichen Grüßen.

Are there any updates on Crystal AMD compatibility? I’m entering VR market and had to pass on 8KX due to no support for AMD cards. I preordered Crystal, would love to be able to use it when it hits the street

Dear @pimax8

For now on Crystal we still recommend the GPU NVIDIA ®️GeForce RTX 2080 and above.
As we can’t guarantee you that AMD will be able to finish tuning Crystal for compatibility when it launches.

Sincerely

Any update on AMD compatibility? I have 7900xt card and would love to preorder the headset. 

Dear @kd-au84

Currently, Crystal supports the use of AMD 6700xt, 6900xt, 7900xt, and 7900xtx graphics cards; 

Compatibility issues with other models are being closely worked on in collaboration with AMD.

Please refer to our official website for more specific graphics card adaptation information.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen.

I own a Reverb G2 that I use almost exclusively in iRacing.  My system has an RX 7900 XTX graphics card.  I have placed a pre-order for the Crystal, but I’m not sure I will actually purchase.  I have been trying very hard to determine whether the Crystal is compatible with my GPU, and appreciate your statement that it is compatible.  However, I cannot find this information on your “official website” as you recommend in your post.  This information really should be easier to find.  I would also appreciate more details about the compatibility.  For example, is the Crystal able to run in the OpenXR environment on the 7900 XTX?

Hi @mitchell-weatherly 

Vielen Dank für Ihre Unterstützung von Pimax!

On Crystal’s recommended configuration page, shown as you can see, we have marked 2070 and above, but this does not mean that AMD cards cannot be adapted to our devices, so they are compatible.We are in the process of optimizing AMD graphics cards for compatibility in the hope of achieving better performance and stability.

However, we can’t give you an accurate answer to your second question, as we usually recommend users to use scenarios running on the SteamVR framework.
For OpenXR, this article may help you: https://pimax.com/how-to-run-openxr-on-the-pimax-crystal/

Mit freundlichen Grüßen.

Did anyone tried running Crystal on RX6800? I got email for Crystal order completion, but I’m not sure if it would run on my GPU (and currently I would like not buy another GPU)

Yesterday, I received my notice that my payment is due to purchase a Crystal (I pre-ordered in May).  I have an RX 7900 XTX GPU, and I’m still looking for confirmation that the Crystal is compatible with my GPU.  Please provide an update if one is available.  I have only six days remaining to decide whether to purchase a Crystal.
