I've been using my Oculus Rift S with AC for some years now selecting "Oculus" in the rendering mode. Now I've bought a Pimax headset and I see I have to select OpenVR. I wonder why it's labelled as "early support". Does it mean that it doesn't work as well as it should or that it's in a primitive state? Do I have to update my Content Manager then?
OpenVR mode, early support?

I started VR with Oculus Rift and then moved on to WMR. I have been using Open VR with AC/Content Manager for several years, first with Oddyssey Plus and now with G2. I have never had any problems and the performance is as expected. I recently started using OpenXR and Open Compossite and I like it for two reasons: it gains a few FPS and it has more configuration options. However, I don't know if OpenXR works with Pimax. In any case, if OpenXR doesn't support Pimax, don't worry: with OpenVR you'll be fine.
I have been using OpenVR with my Pimax these days and no problems. The performance has increased a lot since I followed these instructions to modify steamvr.vrsettings.
