- In today's video, we are renewing a classic on this channel. We will be taking a look at playing PCVR under minimum requirements. Let's say you have a Quest 2, and a PC,. however that PC is not VR Ready, but you would still like to play some PCVR. Well, today I will show you that you can play PCVR on something like the Quest 2, if you have a PC under minimum requirements. I will show you how to bypass the Oculus software and a way of boosting your performance using this method! I hope you enjoy this video :D

I was hyped for 0.0005 seconds until I realised my pc can't run Geometry Dash at a decent fps lol
felt that
Integrated graphics moment
Worth a try 🙂 I ran PCVR on a phone after all 😂 Surely it can't be worse than that.
L
@@TheMysticle computers can be worse than phones 😭 my phone runs Roblox at max graphics perfectly while my computer lags like hell when I run Roblox at max graphics
I find it quite weird how I still watch these videos after selling my quest. Ig 5 years of vr and this channels awesome experiments are really what makes me enjoy this stuff
Why did you sell it?
u should def get back to vr
There's no way you got enough money out of selling a used quest to make it worth getting rid of
Quest 3 is completely different, now it's so much clearer and better and smoother
8:45 I've actually finished the HLA campaign on Integrated Radeon Vega 8 Graphics with ALVR. It was.. very blurry, but still a bit more enjoyable than PlutoSphere on a 2.4 GHz connection in Eastern Europe
Yeah Vega 8 is very close to gtx 760 level but it has igpu advantage, more RAM mean more VRAM.
too many acronyms
@@EllaNonimato skill issue
Really loving your Aries kick you’ve been on about nodding and exploring tech. Keep it coming!
I loved this video, helped so much with my system, plus the new visuals lately are so appealing! Keep it up man!
Awesome! Thanks for the video!
As a developer the more people can experience PCVR the better.
I was able to crowdfund getting a minimum spec SteamVR system back in 2016 with a amd 290. However it was pretty much unusable for Quest & link cable. Was able to get it to sort of work hacking at some of the settings in the config files but pretty much had to wait in line overnight to pick up an upgrade during the pandemic to get a decent gpu at msrp.
Be good to have a workflow for people who don't have recent gpu can try our stuff outside of events we're showcasing at.
As always, great video :3
Finally Old Mystical Is Back Glad to see you 😊 ..... Mystry! You were missed
Thanks for the shopping list! 😄
I hate to admit that the only game I really truly WANT to play is minecraft VR. But having the ability to plug in and play "almost" anything would blow me away!
For instance I'd love to play vertigo 1 and 2. And there's just so much more you can do with a PC then you can with stand alone.
only played VR minecraft on quest Standalone but it's soo good, even though it's like really low quality. Honestly though would recommend blade and sorcery if you're into fantasy, it's a crazy game and can run pretty efficiently with my integrated graphics card whereas minecraft can't(haven't finished watching the video as of yet). if you're into that sort of thing I would recommend it so much.
yeah but he still has a really good cpu, he just changed his gpu, but the cpu, ram,etc are still the same. So I don't think this would work
@@CarrotKing269 I've been wanting to get blade and sorcery standalone for a while! I've heard good things about it. 🙂
Will probably end up getting it here in a few months!
It is stand alone right? I thought I saw it was available on the quest store~
@@creewize409 I know I've got quite a bit to go before I can afford anything worth while to play PCVR
@@CaptainRyMM It is on the oculus store for quest 2 I know at least, should be called Blade and Sorcery Nomad or something along those lines
As a PCVR user myself this is really cool mystical. I started playing PCVR in February 2023 when I got my gaming PC. PCVR was only a dream of mine since I got my quest 2 back in 2020. It is a cool experience trust me.
not to be that one guy but this is mostly just to help you the quest 2 came early 2021
@@Chex_VR not to be that guy but your kinda dumb the quest 2 came out early October 2020. And I thought this video was cool because it is actually possible to play under minimum requirements. I got a quest 3 recently and now I play pcvr on the quest 3.
Quest 2 on rtx 3060 works pretty well, I watch these videos to support the hobby 🎉
I'd love to see how this would work with some flatscreen to vr mods like L4D2 or even GTA V. Im Running a 4090 finally but my older PC is long in the tooth with a gtx 970. Gave that PC to my wife. Would love to have a solid PCVR experience. And yes, she's going to use my 4090 rig lol. That's if I ever inch around to trying these methods out on the 970 build. Great stuff!
Last year i was playing pcvr games on my 1650. It performed pretty well with stutters here and there. Games like Bonelabs/Blades and Sorcery/Half Life Alyx would especially drop frames when they were loading in to certain areas. but overall it was good enough lol. Glad to say ive upgraded since then haha
This is kind of an old comment but Thank you so much this is the info i was looking for, i have a 1650 and a pico 4 for my birthday, safe to say in a month i will be playing pcvr 100% since standalone doesnt hook me at all
I ran my Q2 with VD on an i3 9100f and a GTX960 4GB. Ran really well on Potato mode and SteamVR resolution of 900p. VRChat was a much better experience like this than in Standalone.
a GTX960 works with oculus
I played half of Half Life Alyx on a GTX 750 Ti with 2 gigs of VRAM and 8 gigs of PC RAM, and it was def playable! It obviously wasn't sitting around at 90 FPS but it wasn't below 30 either, for sure.
VRC ran even better although I only interacted with like 5-6 people max in a couple private worlds so I doubt it would've held well if there were any more.
sounds like a horrible experience. Talk about a way to ruin a masterpiece. It's like watching End Game in 240p cam. I recommend only playing this game with a 1080ti and above. I initially played it with a 1060 (6gb) and I had to stop. The low resolution mix with bad frame rate gave me bad motion sickness. After upgrading to a 3080 gaming Pc I played the entire game again and the game was so much better. Complete night and day. When it comes to VR I wouldn't play anything with an unstable frame rate and low resolution.
@@Som5thing2487 As in having a playable experience with these specs?
@@chan13153 Oh yeah I upgraded to a 1650 laptop and it's waaaaay better obviously but some people don't have the luxury and want to experience it anyways any means necessary so I personally understand why people might go through that!
How
wait how????? i need to know
I used to play VR on a 3gb 1060 until about a year ago. I would recommend just putting asynchronous spacewarp on all the time instead of automatic, it helps create less lag spikes since it will be capping your fps. It definitely makes games on the verge of being playable much more enjoyable. This obviously only applies in virtual desktop on the quest 2,pro and 3 but most people have a quest 2 anyways so it should help some. other than that try to close all the background apps you can and if you can get a slight overclock in msi afterburner a few extra frames always help. Also if you can set the target fps to 72hz which is the same as the quest 1 then with asynchronous spacewarp your gpu only really needs to be capable of 36fps rather than the 45 you'd need if you use spacewarp and 90fps mode
Now that's some useful info😍
I played vr with a 1060 and a 15 year old cpu and it was a horrible experience yet some of the best times I’ve spent in vr😂
gtx 1060 gang, I enjoyed it too, bough rtx 2070s two weeks ago and it's not that different, gtx 1060 goated
@@Anonymous-si5ig yeah 1060 was a surprisingly good card. Still got mine in my draw lol. Gonna build a pc into my old Xbox 360 and I’m probably gonna use that card
@@vipersnakegamer5081 great, that pc would run well, are you going to build a PC inside your Xbox 360? That's a hard one, I don't have what's needed to do something like that 🤣
@@Anonymous-si5ig yeah lol. It’s probably going to be a little project for me over the summer. Probably would have to order some special tools to modify the case a bit and vertical mounting brackets, but with the size of the elite I definitely think i could make one fit
@@vipersnakegamer5081 that would be impressive, let me know how it goes if you remember this, I wish you luck
I know this is a pretty old video, but I've been playing Arkham VR on a mini PC with windows 11 pro using Intel Alder Lake N100 integrated graphics. using a quest 2 with Virtual Desktop and other than the controllers not being compatible and having to use custom settings, it's working pretty well. I also got Propagation VR to work as well, thought it was a little tougher.
I connected my non pcvr ready pc to Ethernet and tried to play vrchat and it purfectly worked I played over 6 hours and I had no crashes no anything! But ofc I played on the lowest quality without the add on that u showed ! Today I’ll prob try to make the quality better to see how far I can go! But ye im really happy, I also tried with out Ethernet and i would crash, it only worked one time! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
So did the pc not have the minimum requirements?
Fsr is picked up by vrchats anti cheat, good luck
My problem with Steam VR is that when I launch bigger games like Phasmophobia beat saber I can’t see out of one eye or it’s just a black and white screen
I also use the same GTX 760. Oculus quest link cable too because virtual desktop is too laggy. Also, games like gorilla tag launch and work perfectly fine
i actually have HLA on a GTX 960 and i must say that it works pretty well despite some lag spikes some times but honestly, i was surprised. hell i even managed to finish the game with this gpu
I have that exact GPU in my computer, thank you :)
I have a GTX 770 and found that I could run wireless vr just fine with a few minor tweeks. Mainly through my phone as the headset through iVRy driver, but it still worked
ty so much bruh🎉
i play bonelab under minimum (that's what the oculus app says but it still allows me to play) on minimum graphics it works mostly at 60 fps but with a lot of lag spikes.
AMD FSR can be enabled on drivers level if you're running an AMD card, so you might have more luck with an old AMD GPU.
my pc can run pcvr pretty decently. I ran into a lot of issues with fps and latency at first when i first got the headset, but a friend of mine gave me a good suggestion that increased my fps drastically which is unplugging my main monitor while using the headset. After doing that, i was able to run games at approximately 90 fps
eac should work the same as it does in some other games where you can still use enbs, because vrperfkit/fsr injector is a dxgi file, which as far as im aware is only a clientside graphics hook.
I'm running a standard GTX 1650 with 4GB of VRAM and it works beautifully despite being under minimum requirements. some games dont run amazingly but definitely more than playable. Alyx at low fidelity runs at more than 60fps at all times, Bonelab at performance mode has no issues at all, Pavlov on high can have some hitches but only with bots. I would 100% recommend the GTX 1650 to someone looking to get into PCVR on a budget.
I also have the same gpu but when I play half life alyx I get many frame drops, around 30-60fps. Do you use any mods or smth? My specs:
Gpu: GTX 1650
Cpu: i7-4770
16 GB ram
I use a 2.0 cable
it's your cable
I am running VRChat though Beelink mini PC running on AMD 5000. I had to set it to the lowest resolution possible which makes it quite playable but depending on certain areas you go, you can get 20 to 30 fps, others you get 8 or lower. This is why I'm trying to save up to get a better PC
Just asking how long did it take to start a game on steam home because my games won’t start and using wireless virtual desktop to launch games is to laggy.
Also I’m only trying to run gorilla tag.
PCVR is a whole other experience. I would try to play VR Chat even if it meant I'd have to bring every option down to it's bare minimum settings.
I have a laptop with an Ryzen 7 and a GTX 1650 (according to oculus, its unsupported).
But I can play some SteamVr games, but even VRChat with minimum settings and an 80% rendering it barely holds 60-70fps. Beat saber works fine, with a bit of lagg in the menu, but its enjoyable :)
I need to play without my normal glasses, so I se most of the stuff blurry ^^"
i ran HLA with a 1050 and the thing i did to get 70% res and 90 hz was spacewarp allways, virtualdesktop res on potato and the most important thing, alocating ALL VIRTUAL RAM OF WINDOWS ONTO MY SSD making it run very stable, very pleasant experience and i was happy, i could play vrchat getting 40 real fps and prety stable, just needing to rejoin the world after 2 and a half hours, but that's a quest 2 batery lifetime using airlink, so no problems
in 2016 i bought a osvr HDK2 made by razer and was running on the top end AMD spec at the time, a FX 8370 and a rx390 8 gig with a xbox 360 controller. i can say it worked. the IR tracker sucked though and failed.
my pc meets all these requirements but when I got it it said it wasn't vr ready so will it still work?
I had a vega 56 for long time, played MSFS fine (Obviously not high settings) and Alyx over wifi with virtual desktop.
I tried among us VR and VRChat with virtual desktop on SteamVR on my Nvidia GeForce GTX 760, And both of them never wanted to cooperate. I might try the FSR thing on Among Us, But I'm glad that there was a disclaimer on VR chat.
However, Roblox worked pretty well for the most part, minus some stuttering every now and then, but I think that was actually OVR Tool Kit having my soundboard window up while playing on Mic Up. Apart from that, everything on Roblox ran well. Might try FSR with that too
I played through HL:A with a 3050ti 4gb ROG laptop and Q2. This card is not officially supported by Meta, so the link/airlink not runs well at all, but with Virtual Desktop i can play it quite good on minimum and 80hz via a dedicated wifi6 router.
How does this FSR compare to Virtual Desktop's Potato Mode with Snapdragon Game Super Resolution? It's not enough in many PCVR games for my 1050ti unfortunately.
With Angry Brids VR though I dial the settings all the way up to Godly (with Space Warping enabled ofc) because why not. And Into the Rabbit Hole runs great at default settings.
My AMD 4600g will run beat saber on low low settings. But, my 1660ti seems to do me fine. 16gb memory brings it all together.
My bud has an i5 with a 1050ti. With recent leap forward with Virtual Desktop, it works really well. Again, 16GB of memory seems to be the sweet spot.
I see headsets as low as $100. What's the weather usually the Oculus rift. They still look fantastic.
I got pcvr to work on a gt 1030 before... it was an experience alright. Though, tomorrow, I'm upgrading from a 1060-rx 6600xt so I'll be able to actually pcvr game without getting headaches lol
I can't believe somebody literally did something that i did also. My GPU was GTX 560 and it has been running VR pretty well
...ok, it was in 60 Hz, but it still worked XD
I run VRChat on a Radeon 560x laptop using VirtualDesktop on potato with VRC along with SteamVR running on high priority with Radeon boost min resolution set to max and enhanced sync on. max frames at 60fps on a good day
I'd recommend that you also have hevc encoders, because steam link vr likes having that.
I seen this video So for kicks and giggles I tried to do chill out VR with under minimum with AMD and it worked somewhat okay
I used to have an i7-2600 with no graphics card and I used this method to play gorilla tag, I could actually still play it i just had to use the oculus version and only play it casually or with mods.
I was actually able to run vrchat through alvr with an nvidia geforce 940mx on my laptop albeit the streaming bitrate turned down to 20 and honestly? It's usable, just don't go to gpu taxing worlds and you're good. I did however ran tetris effect connected and ran surprisingly well. I was hitting 30 fps and the only downside to it is Area 4 of connected mode (it has way more particles than the other 4 areas) so yeah, that was my experience with pcvr on a laptop from 2016!
I used to have a Intel Pentium Gold, 4GB of RAM and absolutely no storage. Let's just say I only managed to see the SteamVR hub in 15fps on the lowest resolution/quality (no I didn't use a real headset I used programs such as Vridge and Trinus.)
I'm looking to spend 1700 on a new rig just for vr, I'm so addicted to vr now, I have got a very old PC and my brother got me the first Oculus rift headset for my birthday, I'm hooked at the moment, I can only play very dodgy VR but it's still a drug for me I need more I need to save money lol I clean for a living so it's gonna take me a long time to save😮
I know ChilloutVR allows for Mods to be used. Why not use that for testing frame rate as well?
You can also Tweak in game settings to get better Performance.
It's no where near as Popular as VRChat, but is similar enough, and has a Prop system.
May Also be easier to run for those that want to enjoy PC VR on Lower end systems. Though may be best to wait for their next update. Unity 2021 runs great.
On vacation I have been able to run VR chat on my laptop with a 1060M in virtual desktop potato mode pretty good.
You can play oculus titles with virtual desktop underminimal requirements. Though if you bought games on your standalone headset, you cannot play them on virtual desktop. If you log in to the pc app with your account that has purchesed a game, You cannot play it. You can only play free games (unless you want to buy the games again)
hey , if i buy a cloud pc on a laptop without a graphics card could i run that with virtual desktop on my quest?
Please answer this: how did you get into the game when the beginning is flashing like crazy?
I suggest also trying to play games like boneworks/blade and sorcery and maybe some vr mods for gsmes like half life 2 vr mod or resident evil 4 vr
i’m getting a pc for my birthday, and i already have a quest 2. what else will i need for pcvr?
I am really surprised that HL:A didn’t run that well, i have a low end GTX-1650 Max Q graphics card and it runs decent.
I forced vr on my 1030 gt and it worked actually really well with virtual desktop.
what thing do you use to get all the info about FPS and stuff
I mean. It could be possible to use some form of cloud software with the quest 2 and such, For some people it might be doable depending, and I have seen a LOT of good performance on older hardware for a decent price. Ofc it may require a specific level of power via wifi and such, But it might be doable for most ppl. I love the idea of Cloud gaming in general. and if VR works really well, that is something I think a lot of people could do and enjoy!
I do have a question would Virtual desktop work with Intel integrated graphic card. Intel integrated graphic card was not compatible with link cable but I just wanna know if I can bypass that with virtual desktop.
You could use oculus dash killler, which allowed me to run steam vr, even when the oculus software said my pc is to weak, the only problem is I can only play steam vr games
You should give out recommended pc build for VR
btw I tried and I was able to run a gtx 650 ti boost in vr just that airlink wasn't working but normal link was so maybe you should try that next time. Hope that helps! :)
If you're bumping up resolution and refresh with a massive amount of super sampling those requirement get sky high fast. If you're running on a eight year old card its probably about time for a upgrade.
I played in my laptop (ryzen 5 3500U with Vega 8 graphics) that I overclocked to absolute hell and many other windows and game file configurations. I played almost anything but at a cost of visual quality
If using virtual desktop. Do I still need to link my oculus to the questlink?
I'm quite eager to get myself Boneworks and Bonelab sometime soon. However, I'm very curious on how well they'll run under minimum requirements.
Just bought a Quest 2 and frequently alternating between the Oculus AirLink and the Steam Link Apps. I'm currently trying to troubleshoot why my RX 480 (GTX 1060 equiv) and i5-6400 are both choking on things as simple as SteamVR Home around 50fps and running most games (even simple ones from back in the earliest days of PCVR like "Plank not included") are stuttering at 72fps and only running somewhat decently if I set the headset at 120fps for an effective 60fps.
Meanwhile, I hear from people that ASW (asynchronous spacewarp) is a miracle by interpolating frames at 45fps to trick the eyes into perceiving 90fps, but I don't know if ASW is actually kicking in on my PC because I'm just getting a juttery plain 45fps whenever I set my settings to 90fps
Any ideas for running Asgards wrath on a gaming laptop? I can run like breachers ghost of tabor and vrchat, but not half life alyx or Asgards wrath, any ideas?
do you have to have the oculus app for this to work? cause deleting the oculus app was the only way i could get enough storage for steamvr nvm i got it working
I use my steam deck with VR becauase I have a WMR headset and if you have good VR legs and if you are fine with 60 fps and above the steam deck works very well. The only thing that doesn't work is SteamVR which is a big deal. But other than that I've ran Beat Saber, Gorilla Tag, Bonelab, Super Hot, Phasmophobia (has like a locked 60 FPS), Ancient Dungeons, and Into the Radius. So with someone who doesn't have a quest I will say that it works pretty well if you are fine with a little bit of FPS drops and troubleshooting. I also don't use FSR and just scale games to like 800x1000 if they don't run well or don't have a resolution setting in game. One thing to add on is that light quest games run perfectly on the steam deck like Beat Saber, Ancient Dungeons, and Gorilla Tag run perfectly with 90 FPS and with no decreasing the resolution.
I have a Ryzen 5 2600x and a RX570 and play with a Q2. GET VIRTUAL DESKTOP!!! Not having to mess with the resource hog that is Oculos Home is such a Game-Changer. I can play pretty much every (Optimized) game I have with stable 72FPS & Good Frametimes. Obviously make sure you have a 5GHz router available in your Room but if you router is less than 3-ish years old it likely will work just fine. It also just came to mind that Overclocking might also help a lot if you have a good cooler. Recently OC'd my CPU to 3.85GHz for TLOU and then played some Pavlov and my Frametimes went down a considerable amount for no real downside.
One gripe i had with this video is how little you tried to pursue air link (unless you just didnt show it) sometimes my drivers need to be reinstalled in order for my quest 1 to link up to my pc.
Danny Devito in the background 😂
My 1650 is technically in the yellow. but with updated drivers, downscaling the resolution to minimum at 72hrts, and again to 85% resolution in steam vr. half life alyx runs well without any mods.
I have a 1650 and it’s so laggy and it looks pixelated when I run pcvr how broooo
I've been having lag with my rx 580 with a i7 2600 any tips to fix that lag I do not use ethernet will that help? I use link cable
This isn't really related, but is it possible to get an auto clicker on quest 2? (phone or standalone)
will an rx 550 work? i have i5 4570 but isn't too far off from the i5 4590. i have 16GB ram, a name SSD, Win11, and usb 3.0
i kinda wanna know if i can run Steamvr games like beat saber or gorn on my integrated AMD graphics card cuz im pretty sure its in the requirements but its an integrated graphics card
Some people saying pico 4 needs higher graphics card than quest 2 pcvr to run smoothly?
Does pico with higher resolution need higher graphics card to run same game which runs smoother on quest 2?
I'd like to get a mini pc, are any of them good enough for PCVR?
I ran VTOL VR with a Samsung laptop with an intel i5 and built in iris xe graphics and it ran somewhat playable, had to tweak a few settings on virtual desktop but I was getting 60 frames..
I have a 1k starter NZXT PC, barely hitting the minimum specs, but I can play fully modded Blade and Sorcery, Skyrim, VRChat, and Half Lyfe Alex with little issue.
I have a 1060 max q in my laptop and it works well.
before upgrading to a 3080ti i was using a 980ti. The 980ti did a very good job for the most part.
I have a 980 ti, tbh It's actually Rlly good at PCVR
Ofcourse it has some issues when running modded games f.e. Modded Boneworks/Bonelab but it is playable. Otherwise It can run the full ver. of Alyx with 40-60 fps. But ofcourse a big part of a strong pcvr computer is the CPU also.
I played Boneworks and Blade and Sorcery on a GTX 970 for a while. Wasn't too bad at all.
hello i run a gtx 1050ti and my main game is vrchat with 173 hours in it
how do i play it? the same way you did, i just tank the psychic damage, its not outright horrendous when the world and avatars around you are optimized (which they never are unless youre just with a few friends)
I'm running HP Pavillion (TG01-2022) desktop. It was a Lil sluggish, so I installed a NVIDIA RTX 3050. And I also doubled my RAM from 8GB to 16GB. Lastly I'm using a Quest 2 with a Link Cable.
I probably got 1,200 - 1,400$ invested. It's enough to run
HALF LIFE: ALYX full tilt,
with 45-50 FPS.
What about Frame generation and built in upscaling
I see polish cities on tha board on the wall :)
Earlier today I felt like trying something, so I botted up my old childhood rig with a 3 1200 quad core and 8gb of ram, as well as an RX 460.... VR was surprising lol. I ran Rumble at 2k per eye getting 60 FPS and it actually looked pretty great, then ran AFTER the fall at only 1080 per eye getting 60, still looked pretty decent and was still an ejoyable experience, Into the Radius ran pretty much the same as After the Fall. Don't own half Life sop couldn't test that sadly. A township Tale ran decently, not very enjoyable though, and VRchat was absolutely dying simply because of the sheer amount of Vram it takes and because the 460 only has 2gb of Vram. Safe to say I was absolutely astounded at how well some of the games ran after some optimizing.
Oculus warns me that I doesn't meet the minimum, with a RX 7900 XT. Maybe the restriction to not connect at all was lifted when the current GPU stack was being released? Still waiting for Oculus to update requirements, so I don't have to use a work around to get it to run at all.
I wonder if vr works on rdna 3 igpus, the 780m graphics are pretty powerful
So a 1660 GTX will work to play games like gorilla tag and something like vr chat
I have a ryzen 5 4600g cpu 16gb of ram. What's a good cheap gpu I could use for quest link?
i actually run half life alyx with a gtx 1050, the oculus software lets me use this gpu and connect via link cable, i used oculus debug tool to make my resolution the worst it could be and its quite playable but its really pixelated
For whom who want to play or try VRChat under the minimum requirements, at the time he tried it it was rendered a loss but now with VRChat having its own settings its somewhat possible. I tried it in a private world (I was sitting at 50 fps) with all VRC settings low and inside SteamVR with settings low as well. You can go ever further if you are using a Quest 2 to try PCVR under minimum and set quest res to the lowest and get more performance.
As for the worlds
I have no clue how public worlds will run but I wouldn't test it as it may result in a crash. Private worlds with friends can be good just not with many people with poor avatars ( I was sitting at 29 to 30fps).
Yeah, i play pcvr on my gtx770 and its quite smooth
