Comfortability between headsets

Hi everyone! I know purchase advice posts aren't allowed, but I've done quite a bit of research and haven't found much discussion addressing the specific factors that matter most for my use case.

I'm currently deciding between waiting for the Steam Frame, getting a Quest 3, or buying a PICO 4 Ultra. I'm on the Steam Frame waitlist and expect availability could take months.

My main VR games would be No Man's Sky, Boneworks, and Blade & Sorcery. However, most of my use would actually be playing flat-screen games on a virtual giant screen, potentially for hours at a time.

That's why comfort is such a major factor for me. The Quest 3 is cheaper, but its front heavy design concerns me. The PICO 4 Ultra and Steam Frame have rear mounted batteries, which should help with weight distribution. Privacy (which quest 3 sorely lacks) and software experience also matter, but comfort is my biggest question.

For anyone who's actually tried these headsets, particularly the PICO 4 Ultra and Steam Frame, I wanna ask:

How do they compare in comfort during long sessions, especially for virtual-screen gaming?

Is the Steam Frame noticeably more comfortable than the PICO, or is the difference relatively minor?

If the comfort is similar, would you consider the Steam Frame's software integration worth potentially waiting months and paying around €400 more?

I'm interested in firsthand experiences, particularly from people who've worn both. I'm not looking for a general spec comparison, since I've already done quite a bit of that research.

Thanks!

750 PSU for a 5080 and a Ryzen 7 7700x

From my research this should be safe, but I really don't want to take any risks so I'll just ask the professionals.

So I'm currently upgrading my GPU to a 5080 msi gaming trio, I got it at a good price and, with some extra money I had, I decided to splurge.
Using the Pc part picker I saw no compatibility problems and the power consumption was within limits so I bought it, its arriving in two days.
But today while doing some research I came across the recommended number of 850W for the 5080. My PSU is good, its a corsair rm750e (750 w, high-quality 80+ gold), so, from my research, it should not have any issues, but like I said, I really don't want to take any risks.

Does anyone have a similar build? Should I keep current PSU and upgrade as soon as its convenient , or only when I eventually upgrade my CPU.

Switchglaive and split staff build question.

I'm on my first nioh 3 playthrough, and after the first region I just switched from a tank stamina odachi build to an interesting build I saw on YouTube that uses switchglaive and split staff plus omnyo magic.

​

I'm really liking the build, all the combos I can do with the switchglaive are so fun, the issue is the omnyo magic, I hate it. Does almost no damage (the ones I have) and take me away from the flow of the combat, and the worst offender is that they don't even replenish.

​

So my question is, since both these weapons use intelligence, should I give up on this build? Or is it wise to keep this build going and completely ignore magic? Because I do miss my heavy tank armor I had from the stamina odachi build...
