The real issue with dell xps gpu 4070 RTX having problem connecting to meta link app for pcvr
The compatibility issue is around for more than a year and meta didn’t fix it yet.
I have a dell xps with 4070 RTX GPU and thought it would have no issue at all working with meta app. The reality is that it doesn’t work at all and I have been troubleshooting this issue with chatgpt help for a week with no good news. The conclusion I found after looking at the logs in debug tools it shows an issue with the hybrid gpu setup in the laptop. I contacted meta support and they told me they don’t support laptops. It turned out the root cause of the problem is that there are 2 GPUs inside the laptop: 1- Intel integrated for the display 2- nvidia gpu for rendering. When meta runs it checks for the whitelist gpu and does a check to give validation. Your gpu could be compatible but if its not connected to a display its marked as noOutput in the hybrid gpu check as shown in the pic below
and this is the main reason for the validation fail. I have tried to find a solution to make nvidia gpu connected to the display but could not, it seems all ports and display are connected directly to the intel gpu and it only uses nvidia gpu for rendering.
it also seems that meta support doesn’t care about solving this issue and just tells me to buy a PC so I can use the link app, as PC has dedicated gpu cards that can be used directly for output.
i would really appreciate anyone having the same issue to help with troubleshooting and trying to find a solution as Meta is not thinking of fixing this problem.
