I plugged my unit in to my pc and got the prompt and accepted and instantly the vr showed lots of black dots so I thought maybe it was using my pc's GPU but the visual quality of every game, video is the same when I unplug the cord. I have a 2 thousand dollar GPU so I expected the visual quality to drop when I unplugged it but nope. Anyone know how to make it use my GPU?
I also installed the oculus software on my pc which was gigabytes big so i thought that would allow it.?
Do you have a usb 3.0 type a to type c, or the link cable.
Once you get the oculus app installed on the pc, turn on the quest establish your guardian plug the link or usb cable in, look into the headset click deny on the allow files prompt, then click enable link.
I did not know you needed to have the PCVR version of the app? I have not even bought a single thing yet ha, just got it a few days ago. And I have been clicking "accept" on the prompt (and yes i use 3.1). Thanks for the help guys.
Is it alot better when using a nice GPU? Because while i like the experience i hate not being able to for example read a book in vr that the person in vr is reading, does using GPU allow that kind of thing? Ill go try now :S any free apps just to try that are good for graphic :S?
There's some compression for when link is active. There are plenty of free apps, and some of your quest library is cross buy. But it may look a bit better depending on the game. But yeah you need the oculus rift app on the pc to run it as a pcvr.
I wouldnt mind paying for one either if you think its worth it, just want a app that will really utilize my gpu, i feel really nooby asking but is there any pcvr videos that will do what i mentioned in the last post?
again thanks for the help and any recommendations to a new oculus user are welcome...also new to vr :S
Google Earth VR is free and is amazing. Free flight over hills and down valleys, Full 3D modelling of major cities. Epic Roller Coasters is free and good too.
