Meta Quest 3S Incompatible with my Graphics Card

I recently got a new PC for Christmas, nothing too crazy but it's pretty decent. It came with an AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT graphics card, which is pretty good, until I try to connect the Meta Quest 3S to it. I was trying to connect it to my PC a week or two before through wireless link and it wasn't working, it was basically saying my GPU and/or drivers weren't good enough, which was odd since after I looked on the Meta help site for what requirements I need to be able to use it, and it said the minimum is AMD Radeon RX 6000 Series and anything after. Seeing as I have a 6500 I was sure it should've worked,  I installed new drivers and reset my computer but still no luck. I bought a quest link cable since I know wireless can be pretty buggy so I thought the wire would help, same issue. After looking more into it, apparently the AMD 6000 series IS supported, with the exception of the Radeon RX 6500, which unfortunately just so happens to be the one I have. Is there anything I can do about this? Would I need to buy a whole entire new graphics card just to be able to connect my headset?? The PC and headset were already such big investments themselves, it'd take a while to be able to get my hands on a new card. Please help 💔

@schmoobie try the SteamLink or Virtual Desktop apps to stream PCVR to your headset wirelessly.
