I know you guys are probably sick and tired of noobs begging for help. Well I'm sorry to say I'm about to be one of them. I really have tried to research this on my own, but I've hit a wall and I'm starting to lose my mind. I've never delved into fine tuning gpu settings before. If a game started sputtering I'd knock the game's graphics presets or resolution down a rung or two until it stopped. That was fine for me until I purchased a VR headset.
I'll try to make this concise so I don't waste your time. Below you'll find my system specs, my efforts so far, and anything else I think might help. I really appreciate any assistance or advice on where to go from here. Thank you so much.

System specs (nothing overclocked):
- EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER BLACK GAMING
- Intel Core i7-9700K Coffee Lake 8-Core 3.6 GHz (4.9 GHz Turbo) LGA 1151
- G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 16GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3200
- Intel 660p NVMe PCIe M.2 1TB (game is installed on this)
- ASUS ROG Strix Z390-E Gaming
- Antec True Power Quattro-850W psu
- Windows 10 pro 64bit (yes, used Media Creation Tools to create bootale USB to clean install)
- BIOS Version 1704 x64
- Oculus Quest 2
- latest gpu driver is installed
- I ran UserBenchmark and here are my results
- running fpsVR, I'm seeing the following gpu readings:
- fps usually in the 20 - 30 range, with dips into single digits
- temp 70 degrees C
- 90%+ power consumption or perhaps max load
- SteamVR SS 150% (I know SS is super sampling, but I haven't figured out exactly what the number means yet)
- Reprojection Ration ~50% (whatever that means)
- in Nvidia's control panel I turned off Anistropic (sp?) Filtering, Anti-Aliasing, and set power management mode to 'optimal power' (I've since been trying other recommended settings to no effect)
- no other extraneous apps are ever running
- I just performed a clean install of Windows, so there shouldn't be any digital flotsam gumming up the work
- The readings I've posted were all taken while playing No Man's Sky VR, but I got similar readings in Fallout 4 VR as well
- For the record, I've tested a couple of non vr games and am able to sustain fps in the 100s. At first I thought maybe vr is just that much more taxing on a card and this is what normal performance looks like. But then I saw a No Man's Sky benchmark video using a 2070 super getting fps in the 100s.
