Quest 3 setup (link cable)

[Arioch]

But I am assuming this setting is a matter of the processing power of the quest 3, not the 4080 in the pc, right?

It’s your 4080 doing the work when you’re playing PCVR, the Q3 is just the display.

HMDQ is the most immediately noticeable quality difference and sharpness of image is valued by some players above all other things - personally, I prefer all the graphical goodies turned up high/ultra, keep HMDQ & SS at 1.0, then use the Contrast Adaptive Sharpening setting at about 50%. This gives me a similar look to using HMDQ 1.25 but with better performance on my 4070ti.

I’ve never seen a difference in bitrate image quality above 200 so I’ve always kept it at the default with variable rate to OFF. Also worth checking out what resolution is being displayed via the Quest 3 - if you look in the devices tab on the Meta desktop software, you can select the headset and see what is currently set.

The pinned topics in the VR subforum are so old they are laughable - I agree that there should be updated threads for current hardware and purge the old ones.

I’d happily write a post for Meta headsets though I’d need assistance for launchers other than the stand-alone launcher, which could then be compiled into the opening post.

There is a wide spread of equipment between the regular posters here and I’m sure some wouldn’t mind writing setup instructions - they can probably just cut’n’paste from their old posts.

Do a new thread, whack it in your signature. People will soon start linking people to the "bible"

How to get started, methods, recommended method.
Pitfalls
VR Addons/mods (OC)
Alternative setups for planetside, etc.

You have helped me as I dug through your posts I think it would be a valued asset.
