Hi I'm having an issue with my lenovo explorer headset which has been working fine until today. I keep getting a very stuttery image whenever Imove my head and I have no idea what to do. My pc has a gtx 1660ti, Ryzen 5 1600 and 32gb of RAM so is more than capable of running the headset. Any help...

Hey there. I’m fairly new to PC gaming and having Oculus, so I’m going to try my best to explain the things I’ve been experiencing so far. From what I remember, for the first week or so of oculus I had great performance with everything being very smooth and no signs of lag, but that’s changed a...

Greetings all who visit this thread! For years I've yearned to acquire a VR headset for myself but I've yet to fully decide on which to buy. Perhaps someone out there may be willing to share their thoughts and/or experiences? Standalone headsets are not what I'm looking for - It needs to be...

I know it’s not the best card for VR at all, but I want to know if it CAN. Obviously all games would have to be at low settings and probably not a full 60fps but could it still run games like Pavlov or VR chat at a good rate. My friend really wants VR, me and my roommate both just got it, so now...

Would my 17 3700k be able to handle vr and would it be playable. Just ordered rift s and want to be prepared. I am also using 14gb ram and a overclocked asus gtx 1060 6gb. I now it meets the minimum requirements but dont now if vr will be any fun on my specs.

With upcoming releases from Oculus, and fresh competition—yes, of course I’m talking about the Valve Index—the state of VR hardware is as vibrant as ever. Since the Oculus Rift came out for consumers 3 years ago headsets, controllers, and GPUs have all improved. While the latest hardware is not...

Greetings! I'm looking into upgrading my VR Rig, which will be used to play VR games(duh) and stream some of them. I don't exactly plan to overclock and I'd like to be able to pump the Supersampling in VR games up to anywhere between 1.5x and 2.0x. (but as they say, the more the merrier) I live...

Hi guys, first up I'm sorry for what I assume is a very commonly asked question. I wouldn't worry but the problem with my rig is that it's being bottlenecked somewhat by the CPU and the motherboard (two oldest parts that I plan to update soon). Here are my specs and SteamVR Performance Test...

Been out of the game for a while. Right now I have the system outlined in my signature, with an Oculus Rift. Thinking it's time to finally update CPU/MOBO/MEM. Mostly with an eye toward improving VR framerates/quality. Don't want to break the bank. Should I just save up for a newer GPU...

What it says on the tin. As far as I can see on basic searching on Google even though the Corsair Vengeance Pro (to be specific the 16GB [2X8GB] DDR4 3000MHZ C15 black one) has a higher height than other RAM sticks, Noctua's U12S SE-AM4's size should still have enough clearance as long as I use...

For the last month and a half I've been experiencing major packet loss, high jitter and high latency while gaming. When I phone my ISP (BellMTS) they say they see errors in the line and suggest sending out a tech to fix the errors. I've had 3 techs come out in the last month and each of them...
