Thats interesting, but like I said my rift would work but the problem was me losing signal to my monitor (DP) when I start the oculus software. I had only found one similar problem to mine here https://communityforums.atmeta.com/t5/Get-Help/v1-Oculus-rift-nvidia-gtx-4090-no-support/td-p/997851
the cable which comes with the quest pro is only for charging....... you will need to either buy a cable (£30 - £90) or use wireless via airlink or bigscreen if you have a good enough wifi for it.
I bought it off FB marketplace last night for £120 so not really lol. It will do for the time being & I should be able to get a bit of money back when i sell it maybe?
that is a great price!. i cant see you losing on that tbh.
I guess £120 isn't a bad price, but, it's such a low resolution headset these days. Not sure what it will be worth in a few months when the Quest 3 is released. You might get £60 for it? i agree with bigmike, £120 for a rift s is well worth it imo i had 1 in 2020 i liked it, gives u a cheap way of trying vr.
Ah, that's a shame
What you should do now is download Oculus Tray tools and up the super sampling to 2 or 2.5 even. In steam leave the resolution per eye at 100%. You could also try turning AWS on or off to see which you prefer.
I was a bit desperate to get things working again & don't really have the budget for a big spend atm right after buying the 4090, buying the Rift S seemed a good way to find out whether I had a problem elsewhere or it was simply a compatibility issue, & fortunately its paid off.
Ok thanks for the advice I'll look into it...
With a 4090 you'll be able to supersample/increase the resolution a lot. in the oculus home software, find where the resolution is set (iirc it's somewhere like >devices>settings...) and max it out. also in the oculus debug tool (this is bundled with the oculus home software, the exe file for it is in the oculus directory somewhere, google it) or oculus tray tool (this is a separate download) you'll be able to set the supersampling to atleast 2-2.5 as melmac says. the setting is called the Pixels Per Display or something like that, it's not far off the top.
Ok cool thx..
My Rift CV1 has a hdmi connection, are you saying yours has a display port connection?
I've bought myself a Rift S to last me for the time being, when I can afford to upgrade I'll probably look at the Quest 3 & whatever else is about at the time, more towards the end of the year I reckon.
I see a lot of people saying how the Rift isn't very good, I've been playing with a psvr & the Rift cv1 for a while & the rift looked kinda ok cos It's what I've been used to, so I know I'm gonna be impressed with whatever hmd i do get next, really looking forward to it.
No, HDMI.
the 1st DP to hdmi adapter I bought didn't work with my CV1 however I bought one reccomended to me (it may have been someone on here) and it worked fine.
Oh! Not all HDMI-DP adapters are created equal!?
