With a vr ready pc and a a good 5ghz router, PC wireless is not too hard. And my vr pc is in another room than my vr space. I just have the router close and line of sight to my vr space and a wired connection back to the pc. Then just follow the instructions for Virtual Desktop. And buy Virtual Desktop of course. Great to still be able to play all the Steam VR games I already had. The only game I've found to have issues this way is Eleven. I still buy some games on Steam since they tend to have better on sale prices there. |

Unless your pc has a 1080 graphics card or higher don't bother. --- End quote --- It has a MSI GTX 1660 Ti 6 GB graphics card and a Ryzen 5 2600X CPU. Not sure if that is enough. Games like Borderlands and Metro look pretty good (to me). I don't have anything better to compare it to though... |

Ya I mean you can play any old PC game made before 2018 probably just fine. Try playing Cyberpunk 2077 on that even at 1080p it is not going to work out. VR requires a lot more graphic power. You have TWO screens that need to be rendered at the same time at a high resolution and typically they have to be locked in at 90 frames a second. It is very important that they never miss 90 frames a second or you will see jumps and skips making you sick and giving you an all around negative experience. So what do they do if your processor and graphics card can't keep up with the full resolution of TWO screens at 90 frames a second? It lowers the quality of the images you are zoomed in on; you see all the bad antialiasing and artifacts and degradation of the image. Half Life Alex deserves more because that game is beautiful. |

I do have some games on there but I've probably played less than 10 hours on it in the 2 years since I bought it. I understand your point though - it seems like a huge hassle to me to get PC games to even work on the Quest 2 which is why I haven't bothered. I also have an Eero mesh wireless thing in my house and I cannot force 5GHz band on it - it just picks between 5GHz and 2.4GHz randomly and I think you need constant 5GHz for wireless streaming on the Quest 2. Had I known I wouldn't have bought the Eero (although it works pretty good for wifi in my house). |
