Nvidia RTX 3050 Ti graphics card not supported with Oculus Link?

So, like many other people (I've noticed), I have a MSI Katana i7-11800H Nvidia GEFORCE RTX 3050Ti laptop. I've tried every suggestion that I've seen; restarting both the laptop and the Quest 2, disabling the integrated graphics card, updating everything, so on. The only thing I've fixed is the error that said "there's a pending hardware issue". I cannot get the "your graphics card is not compatible with the Rift system requirements" message to go away. Everything, for the most part, works. It brings me to the Rift version of the menu when I click enable link instead of staying at the quest menu, and I can run the tutorial app for the Rift just fine. But it won't let me run any other apps. I downloaded VRChat to test it, and it said that it couldn't run it. I'm honestly at a loss for what's going on, and hoping that an actual solution can be brought forth, cause this is making me mad.

I was in contact with the meta support. They then helped me to fix the problem as best they could. Then worked like this: Uninstall the software in safe mode and delete all folders that had any data from Oculus. Then reinstall the software and then it went again with the message that the graphics card is not suitable. However, despite the message, I can use it again. So that this doesn't happen to me again, I have deactivated the automatic updates. Of course, my greatest wish would be for the 3050 TI to be supported by the software.

Just give us back that annoying banner that said we don't meet the requirements.

why does it not work it is directly below the 3060 and that works perfectly fine please change this i bought this laptop just to play pcvr and i can not even do it

I bought a microsoft surface studio so I could tether my quest 2 to a laptop.  It's beyond frustrating that such a high profile card says it will work when reading the oculus specs before purchase and then find out it doesn't when I actually try to set it up.  this thread is too old to have not been fixed yet.  

it's been more than a year.  any updates?

 

Please, after spending a lot on the laptop I finally bought the Quest Pro and now I’m also in this quagmire.

So the 3050ti isn’t the best card in some respects but to lock it out is bizarre.

What is the status? This post is over a year old.

IanRJ, have you been able to find a solution to play Steam VR games already on your PC?

Thanks…

It's been a year and a half already, has there finally been any news about it?

its july 2023 WHY IS IT NOW SUPPORTED YET!
