meta horizon link is saying my graphics card is incompatible when it should be compatible.
i am using an AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT which came out after the minimum requirement for graphics card, which means it should be compatible. i suspect it may be because its too new but its displayed before that it is able to recognize it and expresses that it may be not powerful enough for a enjoyable vr experience, however whenever i try to connect it says it cant because the graphics card is incompatible.
specs: meta quest 3s (vr headset), amd radeon RX 6500 xt (graphics card), 16 gb of ram (not graphics card), and using air link with a pc that uses ethernet.

Are you trolling? That's a terrible GPU with only 4Gb RAM that came out in 2022. It's rated as one of the top 10 worst PC gaming GPUs ever. It has no hardware video encoding at all, which is required for AirLink.

    i wish i was trolling but i am not. but i am now even more confused, task manager says it has 15 gb of ram. other than that, which graphics card do you recommend?

    You're obviously misreading task manager, or confusing shared GPU Memory with on-board memory.

    which graphics card do you recommend?

    I'm sure you can Google for that.
