What the highest resolution you can set for the CV1? Geforce Experience says 1280 x 720 optimal. Can you go higher or is that all? Thanks!

I have played it at more than 1400 per eye, not sure exactly the value as I can't enter right now to check it but it was way higher than that.

you dont set the resolution for a VR headset in geforce.

the headset runs at it's native resolution, you cannot change it, for the rift CV1 that is 1080x1200 per eye.

what you can do is increase the super sampling in your VR software for steam or oculus, what that does is render the picture at a higher resolution, and then sort of compress it to your headset's resolution, it makes for a smoother picture, even if your actual resolution hasnt changed.

You can´t change the resolution at all.
You can upsampeling the picture to look sharper but thats all.

Guys don't be so picky, yes, it's supersampling but at the end is playing at higher resolution than your HMD's native one.

Also, no need to do it in Oculus or Steam VR, Alyx already has the option to increase the rendering resolution. Instead of bringing up the regular menu press the three lined button on the left touch and it will bring a secondary menu, from there you can adjust the supersampling resolution.

Does changing the Super Sampling in Nvidia Control panel work on the Oculus?

im not sure, but it is not the preffered method, use either oculus, steamVR, or the game it self if it has the option is likely the best way to go. some games have the option built in.

I used the CV1 and it was still an amazing experience on older tech, I am kind of glad I didn't buy the Index just to play it
