Man I left my headset in the wrong spot. A ray of sun was blasting it this morning. Screen has a tiny red line thats visible in pitch black. Could be worse. On the bright side that it's not sellable anymore is that when I get my next headset Ill just keep the quest 2 for multiplayer.

if you have monitoring software (like fpsvr or MSI afterburner) try turning it off

3080 is more than enough, problem is probably with your configuration.
Although the game is a ram hog too so it could be that.

Well I'll be damned, Facebook actually sent the replacement face cushion(VR Cover).
It took some effort to get it. Initially support responded and said that their records indicated I had already received a replacement. I told them that was impossible and to please provide the name, date, and address they shipped it to. They responded back that there seemed to be an error and they would ship it out asap.
Now of course I do own a VR Cover face cushion, but I bought it from Amazon for $30 and that shouldn't disqualify me from getting the replacement. The pack-in foam cushion was hurting my face. It would be weird and creepy if they had responded with the date I bought or received that from Amazon.
Either way, I'm happy they came through with the replacement and now I can have a normal VR Cover cushion and extra thick each on their own bracket.
I requested one and got the link to order it, so I'm just waiting for delivery now. The entire process was very smooth.
(I don't actually have any issues with the original one, but I'm not gonna turn down a nicer one for free.)

They were probably spying on me through the headset and knew that I already bought one.

I haven't played many from the new bundle. From the first bundle I would recommend The Morrigan if you like Ancient Dungeon.
There's a lot games I need to catch up on. Right now I'm on a steady diet of Gun Club VR, Beat Saber, and Demeo. Signed up for Viveport yearly and downloaded 20 games to start. Good stuff.

it just tested it out with virtual desktop and it worked fine
looks like the Oculus Air Link is where my issues come from, whenever i run it through airlink I get a Low GPU memory message and the game stutters alot
were u wired, air link or virtual desktop?
honestly Air Link seems the most convenient it just sucks that it doesn't work properly with games like Half life yet

Aha. Ok, so important to note, AirLink and Virtual Desktop may have different resolution settings, and Steam saves its own resolution settings as a percentage of native, rather than as a fixed number. It also sees Air Link and VD as different devices.
So it sounds to me like SteamVR is trying to oversample to a ridiculous resolution when you're using AirLink. I would go into the menu from in the game and make sure the resolution is set to something reasonable like 1800x1900ish.
AirLink is generally smoother because it supports ASW which can cover for frame drops. So when it's not there's something amiss.
Also if you went into the Oculus debug tool and manually set resolution or nitrate settings instead of using the regular settings that can cause issues too, but I don't think that's what's happening to you.

In steam VR i leave everything to default
works fine with steam VR and virtual desktop
air link, not so much

Again the same setting will produce different resolutions depending on which you are using, because SteamVR is bonkers like that. "Default" is meaningless.

Yeah, you can try dropping your resolution in device settings of the oculus pc app. I'd also run dynamic bitrate. Both virtual desktop and airlink work great for me. I prefer airlink though because of asw and being able to run a higher bitrate without network latency spikes.

About to cop Walking Dead S&S. PCVR or Oculus native?
also confused about the oculus store on pc. Are all the games in the desktop app the link (pcvr) versions of the game? There are some I would assume are quest native but the recommended specs they list gpus and such.

I always ask myself if this a game I'd want to bring over to a friend or family member's house for a session.
IIRC, somebody here once posted a filtered list from the store that showed cross-buy titles.

Got a link cable. Idk seems kinda of bullshit. Like I am trying virtual desktop and air link then cabled in and I am failing to see the reason to use it.
Yeah, the main advantage is that it keeps your battery from draining.

It's not even particularly good for the battery as the low charge consumes battery cycles
I also received this. I was expecting it to be an official face cover, but it's a third party cover from VR Cover. And it says 'WARNING: This product can expose you to carbon black, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer."Well I'll be damned, Facebook actually sent the replacement face cushion(VR Cover).
It took some effort to get it. Initially support responded and said that their records indicated I had already received a replacement. I told them that was impossible and to please provide the name, date, and address they shipped it to. They responded back that there seemed to be an error and they would ship it out asap.

They are increasing guarding size which is awesome. You use to have to turn off guarding and hope to not run into the street or other walls.

just went into the Quest 2's PC app and noticed that the recommended/automatic rendering resolution is 4128x2096
should i lower that for a more smooth experience in Half Life Alyx with air link?

Anyone here dealt with the black screen of death. When I boot my Quest 2, the Oculus symbol comes up, controllers sync, three dots appear (loading to home screen), then NOTHING.
I have done a hard reboot, tried to launch a game from the Oculus app, soft reboot, etc. and nothing has worked. I feel it's going to need a factory reset but wanted to see what others may have experience with this and if I can avoid having to reload everything. Thanks in advance!!!

Not that I have seen. I'm really looking forward to that one too. I just bought The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners to tide me over in the meantime (I've heard it's pretty good). I reckon we'll see RE4 sometime around Halloween, but that's just a guess.
