Happy to help!

I already had a 3080 and 12700k when I bought the Quest 3. Even with that, I would notice some stuttering at times. Another issue I had was that it would connect and start a game just fine after I booted up the Quest and Windows, but once I exited the game and Virtual Desktop and took a break and tried to start again, I would get a black screen after I started Virtual Desktop and selected my game. So I would have to reboot the Quest and my PC to get back to playing. I even tried shutting down all non-essential apps but that did not stop the stuttering and black screen. On non-vr gaming it would be fine. My Win 11 installation had a lot of work into it with Aida64 and a custom sensor screen, on a triple monitor setup. I did not want to reinstall Windows again on that boot drive, hours of work to get everything set up again and not be guaranteed that I would not still have the same issue. I do have backups, but that wont help with this issue. So instead of hassling with trying to find out what it was, I decided to dual boot with Win 11 as both choices. Just a bare minimum Windows installation to get the Quest running with Virtual Desktop. Took me less than an hour. Well, so far Moss 2 has been running fine. (so far).🙏 One other thing, when I boot up into the Quest version of Win 11, I am only running my main monitor and shut down the other two monitors. Before when I was single booting, I had the 3080 on the main monitor, and the other two monitors were hooked to Intel's gpu on the 12700k. Maybe that was causing an issue, I don't know. Suggestion for those that may be having some issues with an old Windows install.

The AV1 (quest 3) is just for Rtx 4000 series, AMD (i dont know), it falls back to automatic codec (HVEC for nvidea gpus) you can check in the about tab in VD streamer.

Oh man... I was on a Quest 2 with also a 10 year old PC and feeling 'pretty good' about it. I upgraded to a Quest 3 last month, massive improvement. 500$ I just ordered a whole new PC - i5-14600k, 7800 XT, 32GB RAM - Get's here this week. 1,500$ I also just ordered the S3 Pro headstrap and a Battery. 150$ (I also got some 3D printed Cat ears for it haha) Now I am looking at this router... and it's 180. This is overwhelming lol I feel like my 5GHz band is ok... but like you said, once you upgrade (the PC) and look back... it's clearer where you were. Might wait on that upgrade till I pay some of this down hahaha.

Hahah yeah responsibly 😄 the router can wait a bit if you feel like virtual desktop was performing ok. I think a dedicated router goes a long way. Your set up for quest 2 sounds a lot like mine. But after upgrading everything and seeing everything work as it should … I hate I wanted this long. Good luck with the new rig, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it! 👊🏽

Hi and thanks for the video. Nice work. Question, does Virtual Desktop not work with wired link ? - I only use my Q3 with wired link for PCVR sims in the seated position so as it is already wired then it would be far better to have it operate over the wired link. Do you have any info on that please ?. Keep up the great work.

Glad you liked it. I’m 99% sure this set up with the quest app is only for wireless. I’ll double check and if there’s something to share I’ll do a video. There is a classic virtual desktop that I don’t have much experience with. One suggestion if you’re having issues wired… Not all USB C 3.0 performs the same. Your PC could be slowing you down somewhere. Motherboard, graphics card etc. I’m sure you’re aware of these things. I’ll take a look. I will say this maxed out at 2401 Mbps on an updated rig feels just as good as wired when I play shooters. Thanks for watching!

@@TheConstruct_VR Thanks for the reply. I am having no issues at all using wired link, it is excellent. I never have to worry about power or charging as I use the INIU link cable with power input that connects to the Q3 charger hence always a safe 75% - more or less - charge. How are you getting 2400 Mbps ? do you have a 2.5Gb or 10Gb ethernet connection on the PC hooked directly to the router ?. With a 1Gb ethernet you will only ever get a limit of 1000Mb/s. Cheers.

@MevRB19

2 ай бұрын

Hmm, in fact it looks as if the router is limited to 1Gb ethernet port so you can never run greater than 1Gb (1000Mbps) that is a quick glance though. So 2500 would not be possible. You may see a connection speed between the router and the Q3 of a certain figure, but that is meaningless unless the data from the pc is being transferred to the router at the same speed . (this is why wired is preferred by all pcvr sim users). Cheers

​@@MevRB19 Yeah! You're 100% right. The transmit speeds claimed by TP- Link of 2402 (6ghz) and what you see in Virtual Desktop ( like in the video ) is simply Wifi Transfer Speed. Not the actual speed of the PC to the router as you pointed out. But what I've found is that having the wifi connection speed that high gives a LOT of overhead to keep get the full 1000Mbps without dropping. For example I had an older router that didn't have a 1GB port and while it had 2402 connection speeds the performance was AWFUL, so the combination of the Gigabit port and the over the top wifi speed is what makes this work so well. Also if i go downstairs that 2401 drops to about 1800Mbps but the game still runs buttery smooth. I'd say give it a shot and see how it compares to your wired set up. To be completely transparent I was so blown away by the performance I didn't look into the numbers as much. Thanks for the insight!

@@TheConstruct_VR Hey, no worries. I am sure it will be excellent and there should be no reason to unplug my wired connection to run wireless if needed. My router is good enough for a solid 866 Mbps on 5Ghz and my laptop with the 4070 in is the only one of 5Ghz as my wifes lappy uses 2.4. Thanks for the heads up. :) . As you say, you have stacks of overhead !. If you are interested in a cable that will give you a great link speed and keep the Q3 charged have a look at the INIU DI-401. I have just been testing 5 different powered link cables and this is one of the best. I have an AMVR cable to test in the next week which has shown great results on static load testing, just needs running on the headset. This also contains intelligent charging like the INIU. Anyways, going off topic a tad lol. I will give the virtual desktop a try for the non link apps as it offs a fantastic amount of options. Thanks again and keep it coming. Great channel !

Good Video to get started some points though: -the bitrate can be higher on h.264(+) because the decoding is less demanding than for hvenc and AV1 (only available on rtx 4000 and rx 7000 cards). 500mbit/s isn't always better visually than hvenc(10bit) or AV1 at 200mbit/s. it depends on the game, results are similar though. -while wifi 6e has it's benefits (6ghz if alot of other 5ghz noise is great), but wifi 6(even wifi 5 works) is fine aswell. it works perfectly fine for me. You have to have a decent router though. Also the quest can get a 2400mbit/s connection on wifi 6 aswell if the router supports 160mhz bandwidth. not that it will ever use that much :P

Dude it’s so cool to learn things from yall. I will say… I saw 2400 mbps on WiFi 6 the the performances was terrible in comparison .. even on the same router I showed in the video. I wonder if I’m doing something wrong. I have the baby brother of that router (WiFi 6h) and I couldn’t get the performance like I can on this one (WiFi 6e) Now that I have a 4000 card I’ll see if the AV1 10bit looks better on some games. I mentioned to someone yesterday, I’ll admit I just threw money at the problem and was pleased with the results. Looking closer at the actual numbers I realize it’s a lot of overhead and I’m probably only using about 1000mbps. It I love it… even with limited knowledge I can play all around my house I get better than link cable performance. Thanks so for the insight! Pure gold.

Is your router WiFi 6 or WiFi 6e? I have the baby brother of the router I showed in the video and it’s wifi6 I was using it dedicated and I would completely lag out of a game of onward. So even though you see the 2401 Mbps on WiFi 6 … for me at least WiFi 6E was COMPLETELY different. I’m sure everything else I tried you e already seen. If you don’t want to purchase anything give it a crap tone of overhead like set your streaming nitrate to 100 Mbps and inch up until the lag comes back. You’ll see where your limit is. Let me know

All games? Or one specific game? If it’s all games you should figure out how far apart your eyes are. There’s an app (on iOS ) called Eye Measure , it’ll help you figure out your IPD or Interpupillary distance (IPD) is the distance between the center of the pupils. That’s the number you see when you adjust the lenses. I’m a 70 so I have to set mine to max. Other than that make sure your headset is lower enough your nose should be pretty much covered so your eyes are in the center of the lenses. Not sure about a specific game being blurry bs another

YES it creates warping artifacts. but if a game can only do 45 fps, you will get 90 fps. Which can GREATLY reduce motion sickness. Please don't misinform users.
