Fps capped?
I noticed when i play in VR my fps doesn't go any higher than 35.9, i've tried using different pp filters, settings, etc and nothing has worked, vsync is off, my CM Fps cap is at 120 which i did try maxing it out (didn't work), any fix for this?

What are your PC specs? VR is more demanding than flatscreen. As an example, when I install AC and run in vanilla in flat screen with no mods at all, at 1440p with everything maxed out, I get around 250+FPS.

Then I add a few mods to make everything look nicer, CSP, PURE, SOL, filters, etc, and now I get around 100-140FPS flat screen.

Then I switch to VR and up the pixel density for a little extra sharpness and now I'm hovering around 60-80FPS on a full server.

But the main thing is even in VR with lower FPS, everything feels and looks smooth so I don't care about the FPS counter.

im running a 11th Gen I7 / GTX 1660 TI, i'm also using pure, here's a picture of my settings = https://imgur.com/a/yD1Ae6U also, it has been higher before, which is strange but it's now been floating to 35.3 - 35.9

I was going to say it's probably due to your GTX 1660 TI but if you say it was running higher before then it's now lower because of a change you've made. Could be a mod, a ppfilter, etc.
Try undoing any changes you've made recently since you've noticed your frames drop.

Also in your pic, try dropping shadows resolution to 1024x1024, will gain you some extra frames.

1660ti is going to struggle to make the 72fps for Quest so Spacewarp kicks in and halves the framerate and generates the other 36 frames in order to keep things smooth.

Without reducing the graphics a lot lower and the target resolution lower so it will look bad, you're not going to make 72fps native with that GPU.

bro i have 1650 laptop and im not using any graphics and my settings is most low graphics and i stil have 30-40 how can i fix this i think my computer is trash but its taking 140-170 on valo i dont now why

really the only changes i can remember changing is mostly decreasing the graphics, and changing pp filters, i have even tried using a lower end pp filter, but i will change to sol to see if that makes a difference, then i'll get back in touch.

that's the thing, any other game i run can get up to 60+ fps while ac on the other hand takes a toll on my pc even with low graphics, anytime i use a monitor i can get around 70+ but on vr, i can not get higher than what i said

If you are using Content Manager, go to the top right menu SETTINGS / then ASSETTO CORSA (Top left) then the VIDEO tab on the far left.

Now check next to LIMIT FRAME RATE. and confirm that it is set to 90 FPS.

I have 2 presets saved. 1 is for Openvr with FPS capped top 91 and the other for single screen with a higher FPS as I can get more FPS when not using VR. I use higher FPS when recording saved replays. I also increase the main screen resolution higher as my GTX1080 can handle more intense graphical demands under single screen than the GPU hungry Openvr.

I also recommend you buy fpsVR on steam. This handy utility will show you where your bottlenecks are at a glance including frame rate generation and timings for both your CPU and GPU. You will also notice some tracks / car combos are more demanding than others especially the number of AI cars and most demanding is any rain.

Have you confirmed that it is not a global issue with other VR games or the FPS is low only for Assetto Corsa?

If you can only make 70fps on a monitor and VR is more than twice the required performance, then you can't do anything other than get a better GPU.

Assetto Corsa is not a for-VR built game, other VR games are optimised to run at good framerates, AC is a monitor built game with VR tacked on.

If you are using Quest you can try to disable ASW using CTRL+NUMPAD 1 whilst in game, if you are using any other VR headset, you're basically out of luck.

as i said, i used to get higher but randomly it went down recently, plus i meet the requirements for ac, vr wise i do need a better cpu

I believe you need a better GPU for VR. Your 11th gen i7 should be fine.

I'm running a GTX1080 overclocked to max 2025 MHz with an I7 6700K CPU running at 4.6 MHz with 16 GB 3300 MHz memory. For example, I can run 17 cars on Highlands long and Nordschleife track with no stutter and between 87-90 FPS capped.

You must turn off most of the bells and whistles especially weather effects, world detail low, MSSA x4 and reflections @ 256x256.

What made the most difference was dropping my Vive Pro resolution down to 90% with little loss of fidelity and the game runs absolutely fine. The extra 10% res caused major high projection and brings in a little stutter. With the use of FpsVR, I was able to find the sweet spot for my setup ;)

I don't believe my GTX out performs your RTx3070 by any means so I suggest that you do a DDU clean install of your GPU driver then with FpsVR running, start the game with the lowest setting and work your way up. FpsVR will show you when you are pushing the limits then you can dial some of the more GPU intensive settings back a bit.

I also recommend that you check your Nvidia control panel / Manage 3D settings and at the bottom, confirm your VR pre-rendered frames is 1. Mine was set to 2 and killed my machine until I noticed this and reset to 1.

Under Oculus you are running 1.2x resolution, that is way too high for a 1660ti- reduce it back to 1.0x for a start.

4xMSAA is also way too high for a 1660ti in VR, turn it off and reduce shadow resolution.

Your CPU is fine, your GPU is too weak for the settings you have chosen for VR.

my nivida settings are already changed for ac vr, also i sadly don't FpsVR, nor do i use steamvr when playing.

i changed the resolution and the pixels per display down to 1.0 (it was on 1.2) and that managed to go up from 36.0 to 70+
