Yeah, all drivers are up to date.
Cable test comes back fine, but I noticed that the cable was bent double in a certain place and when moving wondering if there is not a poor connection / cable inside that section.

ah probably that. Sounds plausible. Mind i had a load of bother with recent Nvidia drivers, ended up rolling back to May 2020. Just might be the latest isn't friends with your setup (Steam vr was the worst for me)

Update, it was the cable as I bought a new one and it has been flawless since.

My Headset no longer shows the environment and UI on boot. Just stays blank. I can press the Oculus button to reset orientation and I see that appear but the display stays blank. It's lit but blank. I have factory reset via the app and via the headset. I've gone back to Oculus and it looks like a return. Have a missed any other tricks I could try?

Sounds borked. That's the kind of thing that works or doesn't. RMA is probably your only option.

Tried it yet? Is it a big improvement?

Is the encoder on the 6600 XT fast enough for 120hz on the quest 2?

Just tried update 33 and IAM pretty impressed with the gfx update, the sharpening really does make things clearer although it did look oversharpened in places.

What games did you test it with and which looked over sharpened?

Hmm I'll give it a whirl myself but might be a game by game basis

After the 33 update i had to actually turn the Link resolution down as it looked far too sharp at 1.5x with the new sharpening.

While connected to link on the desktop oculus app goto devices, click on the Quest 2 and the res and refresh rate are in the right column.

Oh is the new sharpening tool not an option you can enable/disable or tune the degree of sharpening? Haven't been able to test it myself yet

First steps. It's the basic VR intro, but has a few fun games. It's what I always put visitors in.

After that, what sort of games do you like? Superhot and beat saber are always popular choices. I play a lot more beat saber than I do superhot though.
