My quest 2 has been experiencing screen tearing with most games, the screen tearing starts after sometimes not immediately, usually after a loading screen or after the game lags a bit, after that the screen tearing won't stop whenever I move my head, there's no lag or stuttering. I would need to reconnect my link cable and restart the game, after a while, the screen tearing starts again. Anyone has the same issue? If yes please help 🙂
I have recently started using Link and when ever my Quest 2 lags slightly that's when I get screen tear and even when I use Air Link the same thing happens. I have tried all the solutions I have seen online and nothing has worked so far.

Just got my quest 2 so it's not something that started it has been like this since day one. As for things I have tried Went through Nvidia control settings and made changes to try and help the issue Image scaling set to off Ambient Occlusion set to off Anisotropic filtering 8x Antialiasing -fXAA off Antialiasing -Gamma correction on Antialiasing mode override any application setting Antialiasing setting 4x Antialiasing transparency off Background app max frame rate off Cuda -GPUs all Cuda sys fallback driver default DSR factors off DSR smoothness off Low latency ultra Max frame rate off Multi frame sampled AA (mfaa) off Open GL GDI comp performance OpenGL rendering Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 ti Power management mode max performance Shader cache size driver default Texture filtering anisotropic sample off Texture filtering negative LOD bias clamp Texture filtering Quality High performance Texture filtering Trilinear Optimization off Threaded Optimization on Triple Buffering off Vertical sync Use 3d app setting VR Pre-rendered frames 1 VR Variable Rate Super Sampling Adaptive Vulkan/OpenGL preset method Auto Let me know if this looks ok or if something needs to be changed?
We appreciate you providing that information! To help narrow down what may be going on here, are you using Quest Link via cable, or are you using Air Link? Make sure you have a stable connection if using Air Link, and try multiple USB ports if Link Cable. Some other things to check are:
Ensure you are not running other programs as much as possible, especially things like GeForce Experience or screen recording software.
Ensure HDR is disabled
Try removing the device from the Meta Quest Link app, restarting the PC, and then adding it back
Please have a look at these settings, and let us know how this goes!
