Virtual Desktop is for wireless connections the better option. Not only most games run without any problems, you can also connect more then one PC to it and switch between those PC's. Not possible with airlink.

[@sleepyjoe4529]

The best thing about Quest 2's airlink over say, Virtual Desktop, is playing PokerstarsVR. You can use the built-in monitor option in Airlink to float while you're playing poker. I can play for long sessions just watching youtube or a movie while playing poker at the same time.

[@CNET]

Thanks for the tip! Will check it out.

When I use virtual desktop streamer my game on my computer display which is my monitor looks really smooth in my vr headset the game looks so laggy

If you have LAPTOP you need to disable the Integrated graphics from Device Manager if you have Nvidia card with AMD one for low power and then when the desktop is all cramped up with apps connect a TV screen or a Monitor to fix the problem basically its gonna make your Laptop screen the Integrated graphics with bad resolution and the TV(Monitor) one with your default app layout so you can browse normally on your pc unless you have Optimus on your laptop and you CAN disable it wich if you have anything that is under 3060 rtx you wont

[@TheARTofMining]

Hi I currently develop standalone PC VR based apps using Unity with the HTC Vive. These are not publicly commercialised they are specialised developments and demand high graphic performance (heavy scenes). I am looking to start developing on the Oculus quest 2 and was hoping to take advantage of the PCVR tethered mode, using a link Cable to a VR ready PC. MY QUESTION: Can the Quest 2 truly take advantage of using the PC performance in order to get visual performance similar to the HTC Vive performance in this configuration? I see plenty of information about using Steam based games (PCVR esque) BUT that is not really what I want to do. My builds are standalone, currently .exe PC based VR applications for learning/training. I am just trying to determine the performance & limitations of the the Quest for such relating to GPU/CPU use and how it would compare to the HTC Vive builds. There does not seem to be a clear document that addresses these specifics from a developers point of view, but plenty info for the end user which even does not make it fully clear. Ideally I would have smaller graphical scale APK's for Quest 2 in standalone mode. And the option to also use the Quest 2 tethered to my PC to gain the added performance IF that's how it works?? Appreciate anyone's feedback! TY A

Hello fellow VR havers I know this isn’t the right place but I’m having issues with linking my quest 2 up to my computer and I have followed every single tutorial out there The main roadblock I face is the fact that the quest app layout changes so frequently all of the videos have been rendered useless Every tutorial I’ve watched needs me to go to general settings on the quest app but I don’t have that :( does anyone know a solution

[@RayedShahin]

Make sure your GPU can handle VR. I have the XFX 590 Fatboy, and it has the VR-ready seal on it. If your GPU does not have that seal, it won't work, mine it connected and I was able to play No Man Sky in VR, it's nothing too great... the best VR I used was the PS5 VR...

@@himanshudangwal9838 the T600 is pretty weak and may not run 95% of games the 4GB memory is too low... you may be able to run VR chat on steam and with the quest 2 it's pointless since it's already available in the quest system itself...
