Quest 2 Steam VR games freezing/crashing

[Virus]

I recently got a quest 2 and use a link cable or Virtual Desktop for playing pcvr. I'm having an issue where almost any steam vr game i have played. After 20-30 or so minutes, the game sometimes freezes then crashes. steamvr however still stays open, the game is frozen but i can still access the dashboard and close and reopen the game (Which is the only way to fix it temporarily). Its making games borderline unplayable. My pc should be more than capable of running any vr game. I have noticed that it only happens in steamvr though. I played hours of Echo VR on the oculus api and there was no issue. Any help would be appreciated! This is driving me crazy...

Specs:
CPU - I7-9700k OC 5ghz
GPU - 2070 Super OC
RAM - 32 GB DDR4 2600mhz

I am dealing with the same sort of crap. My pc is golden and this shouldnt be happening. Im new and hoping for answers as well

I am dealing with the same thing you are. Mine works with the link but, then freezes... And forget Virtual Desktop working it caused me to blue screen 5 times. I am running a 3700x with a 2070 Super. When it does work the games work great for a moment but, then start chugging then freeze my whole PC. I have been trying to fix this since December. I just want to make VR YouTubes.... It also stays open for me when the games freeze, causing a lot of stress on my hardware. I feel the Quest 2 needs some serious bug fixes and updates. Hell, I have the thing to play StreamVR games and received it as a gift. I hope they can fix this problem soon because with the amount of problems and threads I see around the internet this is a real bad issue.

Same hier 3900x with 1660 Super 6GB. Crashes instant by Tabletop Simulator but it works totally fine with games like Job Sim or super hot

My work around is as follows;

!. Disable SteamVR Home
2. Launch all SteamVR Games outside of VR/
3. Always choose Launch games for Quest 2 VR option when available.

These workarounds have fixed about 90% of my problems. I hope this helps you all and SteamVR + Quest2 devs really need to come together to make this more streamlined, less buggy, and stable. There is a huge portion of the market they are failing to receive and I believe the solution starts here.

Welcome to the Club: ( I wouldnt have minded buying a Quest 2 if told it wouldnt be able to play Rift/Steam games, but the whole sell just feels dishonest, like CyberPunk 2077 or something. I still find it hard to believe a better job couldnt have been done here. Tired of being a beta tester for FB...

I buyed an new Mainboard + CPU and since then i got the problem that my VR Games freeze always after a different amount of time. Strange is, its only VR Games. GPU is not overheated nothing. Tried already several USB Ports out, no change. All other Hardware stuff is the same from the old PC.

New:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
Mainboard: AsRock B550M PRO4

Old:
VR: Oculus Rift S
GPU: GeForce 1060 6GB
RAM: 16GB HyperX Fury 2666mhz
Power Supply: 650W

my solution was a better PC and switching to Valve Index, but also with Quest 2 i have 0 problems now

[CrimzonZ]

Yea I also have this problem and I am not as tech savvy as I want to be. Everytime I go into my pcvr on my quest 2 I play for about 15 mins and it crashes. It's been happening for weeks now and I still can't fix it. Pls help

I am having the same issues now. Brand new PC, 4060 ti, 5600x, 32gb 3200mhz doesnt matter what vr game it is. Any steamVR game just crashes my entire pc after a few minutes ingame. Didn't always have this issue. Only started happening in the last few updates.
