Quest 2 optimization tips?

[leaf dog]

Played through the entire game on my original model Vive about a year ago and it worked great. Tried playing today with a Quest 2 (to enjoy dat sweet sweet high resolution) on the same computer via link cable and software and the lag was unbearable due to the Oculus Link software taking up a hefty ~40-65% of my GPU on top of SteamVR and the game itself.

I tried setting the priority of the "OVRServer_x64" process to Realtime using task manager, but this did not help much. My current setup makes AirLink an impossibility (PC does not detect headset on college campus network). Does anyone with a similar problem have a solution that has worked for them?

What are your PC specs?

If you got a WIFI dongle, you can try mobile hotspot, and connect your oculus quest 2 to that network should work for you, if it is usb 3.0 and WIFI 5GHz its the best option, latency is not a problem in this config

In reality your card is too weak for the native resolution of the Q2. However, others will say it works flawlessly on a 1650. There's a lot of BS out there. What you may have to do is run at a reduced resolution at minimal frequency, which shouldn't be too bad, considering the game's graphics (textures and draw distances etc) was optimised for an Index.

Open the SteamVR menu and scale the resolution down to 80%, it makes little difference visually but performance wise it helps a ton. I have a 2060 as well.

It might be related to the lower amount of VRAM in those gpus, I'm running at 125% of 1440x1440 on an RX 580 8GB, which in performance in most cases is a bit weaker than a RTX 2060, but with 2GB more VRAM, and I don't have many issues as long as I don't set texture quality to ultra

I've been running the game on max resolution (but fov set to 90% of the max) on the quest 2 with ingame settings at medium/high and it runs smooth. Maybe I just dont notice low fps in vr.

3070 8600k @4.7 game will just spike for no reason with average 5.5ms render time on 90hz 40% headroom steam vr reports a red bar when that happens and oculus hud sees a tiny spike. It's an alyx issue. If you search google you'll find all sorts of stuff people say works. None of them work. It blows. Learn to deal with the stuttering and you'll save a lot of time and headache. Or refund cuz it ain't getting fixed.

Il played it last year and it has no issue, but i replayed it today and the game was very laggy after one hour. Maybe it's an issue with some updates on the Quest 2.
