The lowest spec for Meta Quest 2

Hello. I need to buy the cheapest computer for very simple VR purposes, where I will use Oculus Quest 2. I'm not interested in gaming at all, but in XR. I will use the glasses to look at objects in the room, and when I look at them, the passthrough video will play. It will be integrated using the Unreal Engine.

I need advice on buying a computer. What is the weakest graphics card (or CPU?) I need to even run Oculus Quest 2? Is there a limitation not in terms of performance but in compatibility as such? Thank you.

Hey there, @tomasburancgi, and thanks for reaching out to the community with this! The computer requirements to use Link can found in this article:

 

Requirements for Link

 

But per that article, the minimum requirements are:

 

  • Processor - Intel i5-4590 / AMD Ryzen 5 1500X or greater
  • Graphics Card - Nvidia RTX 20 Series / AMD Radeon RX 6000 Series
  • Memory - 8 GB+ RAM
  • Operating System - Windows 10, Windows 11
  • USB - Ports 1x USB port

We hope this information helps with you choosing components, and want to also mention that there is also a list of compatible and uncompatible graphics chipsets as well, so pay particular attention to the uncompatible ones on the low end. Let us know your final setup!

using amd ryzen 9 7940hs with 6gb nvidia rtx 4050 and 32gb ram still getting the message of not meeting the minimum requirement

 

Honestly Same here Though I think Its a bug You cant be So sure. I suggest just ignoring It as MY VR runs Really Great and I have had no issues here.
