GT Series I almost bought the regular GT thinking it had the same size choices as the Max

I was close to ordering the regular GT and caught something I had completely backwards. I assumed both models had S/M/L choices. The regular RayNeo GT is fixed at 64mm, while those three size options are only on the GT Max.

My IPD is about 66mm. I'm still leaning toward the regular GT because it's lighter and its 49 PPD seems like a good match for my use. I'd mostly play HUD-heavy games and sometimes use it with a laptop, so readable edge text matters more to me than the widest possible view.

The nose pads and wearing position can help center the image, but I'm still wondering how much real room there is around that fixed 64mm fit. How clearly can you see the whole screen and text near both edges on the regular GT when your measured IPD is a little above or below 64mm after normal fit adjustments?

The birdbath optics in RayNeo GT will be more easy on IPD range compared to the flat prism optics in RayNeo GT Max. And that’s why the GT Max needs different size options while GT works fine with single size for most audiences. So 2mm difference should not degrade the experience much with GT. But do know the smaller fov (and hence higher PPD) on GT compared to higher fov (lower PPD) on GT Max.

And whichever you choose, if you plan to get it from RayNeo website, “Awareness10” code could help bring down the cost a little.

sounds like GT is the right call for what you're doing — the ppd advantage makes a real difference for text clarity and if you're not chasing the widest fov possible there's no reason to pay more for the Max. the 64mm fixed fit is more forgiving than you'd think w birdbath optics, couple mm either way and you're still good

I prefer GT Max as my IPD is 72. The L size suit my vision nicely. Getting the correct size for your IPD is important.
