can an rx 570 run vr games?
hello good night, I'm about to buy an oculust quest 2 but I have some doubts if the games work with the components of my pc

The components are

GPU: RX 570 8GB
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
32 GB OF RAM

I am interested in playing games like HALO but also other games like Pavlov and vr chat etc. it should work? or should i buy some new gpu?

btw, I have no problem running games on medium-low graphics

it will run, depending what resolution you decide to run and what fps your targeting 72hz on low to med around the 1500x1500 mark id say you would be alright. you could always upgrade gpu later

I would like to play at 90 hz more than anything so as not to get dizzy
What resolution should I put?

Im not entirely sure about the quest 2 native res and how that would look, I going off my personal experience with wmr hmd and a 1060 6gb 16gb ram and R5 3600
I ran it at 2880x1440 and it hit 90hz pretty well on low in something like pavlov's early access back then, the odd drop in intense games

Just for the record i find its not the low fps that maked you feel Ill, its the changing fps or how often it changes. the dizziness could also be down to no VR-legs yet

In VR GPU is king, you will run VR with what you have now, but that card wasnt really made for indexs/G2 or quest 2's higher res it was considered very entry level for cv1 and vives or wmr hmd at the time along side less intense games like brookhaven exp or the original Vertigo (still damn good)

can you show me some picture how your game looks like?

I have the same specs as you but have a i5-6600k as a cpu. I like to keep the rendering res at 1.2x (3616x1840) on the oculus app as anything below that is too blurry for my eyes. Easier to run games like beatsaber can keep a steady 90fps easily. Other games require me to bump the refresh rate down to 72hz.

And if you don't mind stuttery hand movements in favour of head tracking smoothness, you can also toggle on ASW. It's useful for more slower paced games like SkyrimVR. Also look into opencomposite aswell.

Screenshots will always look sharper than what you see in the headset, but here are some.

sorry but i dont have that GPU or headset anymore. and id be lying if i said thing didnt look blurry because at the time i didnt know how bad those older and lower res hmd were. i use a G2 at rendering res of 32% (1980x1900) which isnt that high but next to my old AH101 its crazy sharp
