hello i have an oculus quest 1 and an rx 6500 xt i want to use the quest 1 for pcvr it connects with the app and the quest sees my pc but when i try to connect my quest with my pc it either gets stuck on the loading screen or it just cuts off and throws me back into the main menu i have been searching for months now. i tried older software but i dont understand it that much, alvr worked only 1 time but it cut off after 5 minutes of playing the forest and i never got it to work again 

i heard that my graphics card is too bad to run pc vr bc it doesnt have a video encoder or hardware encoder but after i got to play the forest i know that it can play pc vr even if it looks very bad 

 

if you didnt understand something that i said tell me and i can try to make it more understandable 

Thank you for the help

Try SteamLink first before considering VD. VD performance is slightly better than SteamLink, but about equal with AirLink.

Not a good card for VR!

In Windows advanced graphics settings, disable HAGS (Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling).

If your PC also has an onboard GPU, disable it.

In Oculus Debug Tool, disable Asynchronous Spacewarp.

Hello steve_40 thank you for the fast answer 

i know that its a bad card especially for vr but i still wanted to see if it was capable of doing anything 

i couldnt find hags in the setting bc AMD dropped support on it 

and Asynchronous Spacewarp was already turned off 

i dont think my pc is good enough for pcvr but i still want to thank you for trying to help 

but can you tell me if virtual desktop is worth a try or if it even works on my pc Thank you.
