Your settings and performance in VR?

[arjepsen]

ok, so I wondered if I could get people to write down their system specs and settings, both in the link/wireless setup and their setup in ED.
(Reason is of course I would like to compare my performance to what others get).
Here's my stuff:
14700k / 4080 super / quest 3

Wireless: ~ 72 fps docked in station, pretty stable connection at 2401 Mbps, latency ~57 ms
Virtual Desktop, AV1 codec, VDXR+OC. Godlike, 90Hz, 200Mbps

Link cable (3 meter thunderbolt, measures about 2600Mbps in oculus app: ~ 88 fps, latency ~52 ms
Oculus app device setup: 90Hz @ 4128x2208
(NOTE: graphics quality seems worse using link cable, even though I seem to get slightly higher fps).


ED settings:
Quality:
Texture Q: High
Text. filter quality: anis. x16
Dir./spot shadow Q: medium
bloom / Blur: off
A.A.: FXAA
SuperSampl.;: x1.0
upscaling: normal
A. Occlusion: off
Env. Q.: Ultra
FX Q: High
Part.fx Q: Ultra
Depth Of Field: off
Mat. Q: Ultra
HMD Q: x1.0
Glxy Map Q: High
Terrain settings: Ultra (except checkerboard off)
Field of view all the way up
on foot almost all the way down.

Mat. Q: Ultra

There are other settings you can play with at the driver level. There are too many to list, but with a good search, you can find them.

I try to keep my FPS at 90Hz. In most cases, it locks in well or I can go as low as 80Hz and won't get sick (unless I drive too fast on a rocky body.)
