Pimax Crystal Super 57PPD Headset
The Pimax Crystal Super PVH00010196 is a tethered VR headset built for enthusiasts who demand ultra-high visual fidelity. It uses QLED panels with MiniLED local dimming to deliver 3840 x 3840 resolution per eye at 57 pixels per degree. The package includes controllers and supports eye-tracking for dynamic foveated rendering. Buyers who want a standalone wireless headset cannot use this model.
Sustained Visual Performance
The headset runs at selectable 72Hz or 90Hz refresh rates to maintain fluid motion during extended sessions. Eye-tracking at 120Hz drives dynamic foveated rendering, concentrating GPU resources where the user looks to preserve frame rates. Four onboard cameras handle SLAM inside-out tracking without external base stations. Users with older graphics cards may struggle to sustain native resolution at high refresh rates.
DisplayPort Tether Constraints
Uncompressed video travels over a DisplayPort cable, limiting mobility to the cable length and host GPU outputs. The 106-degree horizontal field of view and aspheric glass lenses are driven directly by the PC rendering pipeline. Interchangeable 3.5mm audio jack and dual microphones handle sound locally. Setups lacking a DisplayPort connection or sufficient GPU bandwidth cannot support the headset.

Questions about this item
How loud or hot does the Pimax Crystal Super get when I run it at 90 Hz all day?
The headset draws power from the PC over DisplayPort and has no built-in fan, so heat and noise depend on your graphics card rather than the unit itself.
What cables or ports must my PC already have for the Crystal Super to work?
You need a DisplayPort output on your GPU for uncompressed video and a USB port for data; the headset also includes a 3.5 mm audio jack for headphones.
Will my old SteamVR base stations still work with this headset?
The Crystal Super uses four onboard cameras and SLAM tracking, so it operates without any external base stations.
