Quest 2 VR perf tip

[DmAnd]

I have noticed, setting the Quest 2 to run at 60/120 provides the best experience.

I think VR was optimized to run on the PSVR and I am pretty sure the PSVR does 60/120.

Also another tip that seems to be a hit or miss on some systems is to disable HPET. Don't forget to turn that back on when done playing NMS

how do you change that setting?

Meh, probably shouldn't bother. Not working so good for me anymore.

Just in case...

How do I adjust my graphics performance preferences?
You can adjust the settings for the graphic performance of your Oculus Quest 2 + Link from the Oculus app on your computer.
Quest 2 + Link
1.
Open the Oculus app on your Computer.
2.
Click Devices on the left side of the app.
3.
Click Quest and Touch.
4.
Scroll down to Graphics Preferences.
5.
Here, you can adjust your Refresh Rate and Render Resolution.
Refresh rate: The number of times your Quest 2 screen updates with new images each second. You can set your refresh rate to 72 Hz, 80 Hz, or 90 Hz.
Render Resolution: Adjusts the resolution that the app or game you're using is being rendered at. The maximum render resolution you can set is 5408 x 2736.
Improved visuals vs performance
Keep in mind, while increasing your refresh rate and render resolution will result in improved visuals, these adjustments could have a negative impact on overall performance. Even with some of the newest and most powerful GPUs, maxing out values for the render resolution slider with a 90 Hz refresh rate may result in dropped or missing frames, which creates a less smooth in-VR experience.


The HPET setting can be turned off in your device manager under Control panel, Hardware and sound, Device manager, find System devices and hit the drop down box to see High Precision Event Timer. Right click to disable.

Your title makes a lot more sense if you swap the f for a v.

I found that messing with steamvr resolution helps performance the most but it obviously costs graphical fidelity

Not sure I follow what you mean by 60/120. I'm seeing refresh rates of 72, 80, 90 and 120.

[UPDATE] I find the game actually runs better over air link than with the link cable. This seems counter intuitive I know but the results are there.
