Hello, I have a system with the new Intel Arc A750 graphics card, and I previously had an RX 570--my Oculus Rift S was working completely fine beforehand. Ever since I upgraded, I've not been able to use my Oculus Rift S.
This seems evident whenever I try to connect the DisplayPort it never connects and instead gives me an Unknown USB Device (Port Reset Failed) error. I've reinstalled the drivers, reinstalled Oculus, and the only thing I have not tried is reinstalling Windows, however, I do not want to do that as it seems like this is more of a software issue than anything, or is it that my graphics card is genuinely incompatible?
The only solution to this problem is just to have two graphics cards, one dedicated to games other than VR (which in this case my Arc A750), and one dedicated to VR alone (my RX 570 in this case). While not price effective for those with only one card, it has fixed my issue in my scenario, because I did not want to return my new card just because it was not compatible with VR. Maybe in the future, if I get a different virtual reality headset, one compatible with the Arc A750 (namely the Q2 as others have stated using Virtual Desktop), then this solution is the best for those with the Oculus Rift S. Unfortunately, I doubt we will be getting compatibility for the Intel cards at this moment since VR compatibility with ARC is most likely the last thing on Intel's list of support, as well for Oculus. This is most likely due to the fact that the Rift S is discontinued.
Thank you for all your comments guys. If there is any update or change, I'll try to update this post. However, with all of this being said, hopefully, we ARC users get an update with VR support, with Oculus opening the door for us as well.
Upgraded to an Arc 770 and I have an Oculus Rift S, connecting the Display port from the headset doesn't detect it. Didn't work with SteamVR. This headset worked with my GTX 1060. Pretty much the same problem as OP. Maybe other headsets work (I saw Oculus quest work with A770 on Youtube), but not this one.
I bought a game today. It is available on oculus and on steam. Since steamvr works beautifully with Intel arc A770 on Q2, I bought it there. Guess what: it was 30% cheaper too.
I also sent this message to Meta. The game in question is warhammer 40000: Battle Sister.

This does not seem like a solution. Similar to; "Just stop being poor". "Don't be homeless, buy a house!".
Oculus is actively blocking the Arc cards. Nothing Intel can do about that.
It seems cheaper to buy a Quest 2 with virtual desktop and work with SteamVR (which is cheaper for the same games), than to buy a second GPU, even if your system can handle two.
