Good Afternoon!

I have recently purchased an MSI G63VR 7RF Raider laptop to have the ability to play VR whereever.

My desktop at home I normally play Elite on in VR.

I have tried both HMDs on my laptop, the oculus and the vive.

My laptops specs are i5 7300HQ, 8 gig RAM, GTX 1070.

When I am in elite, whenever I bring up a big panel to look at such as star port services it screen tears sooo badly when I move my head. It seems to happen with any 2D panel in the game. I simply don't understand it.

This GPU shouldn't have an issue running this game at all. I have tried sooo many things but I just can't figure it out.

I have made sure all the power profiles are set correctly. I have made sure the game was set to VR LOW. I turned off all the bloatware running in the background. Uninstalled Norton and all that mess. If anyone has experienced and fixed this I would be FOREVER grateful.

Might be the RAM. 8GB is bare minimum. I also have only 8GB DDR3 on one of the computers and am experiencing the same thing as you.

Bad HDMI cable/connector does something similar, too, in my experience, but that would be more random, not while doing one particular thing.

Hello mate

What are other games like when you try them?

What resolution you playing at. a laptop gpu will not be as powerful as a desktop dedicated card.
If you use ctrl f
This will show you frame rate on the bottom left of the elite game screen.

Whatever resolution is used for VR. I am not supersampling.

Do you have re-projection running? Navigating the System Services menus while docked are the most graphically intense parts of the game. Nothing hits your system performance harder. As a first step, download and run HWiNFO (https://www.hwinfo.com/download.php) while you're playing, and see what part of your system is struggling or overheating. It doesn't need to be installed as it can be run as a self contained .exe file. Once you know which part of your system is working too hard or hot, it's easier to offer a solution.

Are you asking me to look at the temps of the GPU and CPU? Or is there something specific. When I run Elite It is around 55C for each.

No mate, you want to look at the work load on your RAM, CPU and GPU to start with, to see if they are running at %100 usage/overloaded. Then figure out why; Is the software(Elite) too much for your system, or is the laptop under performing? Take note of the speeds/frequency that those components are running at and compare those numbers to the specifications of the hardware itself, as typically a laptop will try and run cooler by running things slower and/or under powering them, so go into your laptop BIOS and make sure any throttling is turned off, and any power profiles are set to full. In that regard, if your CPU is advertised as 3.5GHz you can use that software to see that it's performing as intended. Same goes for your RAM speeds and GPU. HWiNFO is a standard tool commonly used for this kind of thing... If throttling/power is a factor, keep in mind that turning everything to full power will increase heat... Report back, happy to help

Nothing seems to really struggle . I was reading that the problem I am having with the 2D panels being displayed is caused by asynchronous time warp kicking in and messing things up.
