Hello The Mysticle . I love your channel! Lots of hight quality informations and you make things so easy to understand. Thanks so much! May you please help me? My setup is I7 9750h + GTX 1060 TI 6GB mobile card + 16GB Ram + SSD (Dell notebook) + Oculus quest 2. Is it possible to play VR games nicely with decent quality / FPS? Really appreciate your help. Thanks
I played VR on a 1050ti for a year before I upgraded. I was easily able to play Space Pirate Trainer, Rec Room, and Super Hot. It also was able to run on more high graphics games like No Man’s Sky at the lowest settings.
I have the same 2019 RTX 2060 Razer Blade 15. Totally recommend. It had replaceable memory and you can even add an extra ssd or hard drive. Mine came with a 512 gb ssd and I also purchased a 1tb ssd so I had 1.5 terrabytes and an RTX 2060 I can just carry around with me. It’s amazing.
Don't forget! For VR, it would be very preferable for laptops to include a Mini Displayport. Because USB-C Displayport Alt has been quite a hit and miss in my experience.
Keep in mind these are laptops and often times you pay more for the company to squeeze all that processing power into a small package. If you buy a pc and not a laptop it will be cheaper and if you build your own pc the price is even lower, you just need a little bit of skill though. You have two options if these are too expensive: buy a shadow (he did a video on this I am not going to explain it here) or you could wait until he reviews gaming pc's and check the prices on those.

I rember my first Laptop was built with NVIDIA Geforce GPU and AMD CPU. Sadly, I was still an amateur in PC/Laptop Gaming so I did not ever used its full potential and neglected it: Keyboard keys no longer sticked and the fan was failing causing laptop to overheat. This was back in 2010. 2015 is when I bought and upgraded to current laptop trends: Intel CPU without GPU. I bought Microsoft i7 laptop with Beats audio. Best laptop ever! Used its full potential.

I own a valve index and been trying days to get it to work on my Razer blade 17. Used a usb c to Displayport adapter but nothing seems to work. Please help
question:is the katana GF66 model:12UD-436 good for vr, iv'e heard that it has bad battery life and a bad screen but if you just plug it in and play vr then its fine right?
I bought the zephyrus g14, and it's been pretty good so far. I mean the battery is amazing, it can easily last me around 8 hours on a single charge, the performance on flat screen games is pretty good considering it has a 3060, and the performance in vr is pretty impressive for a 14 inch laptop, granted it will not be able to compete with high end desktop pc's, but I have played a lot of vr on this laptop and it can easily handle my Oculus rift S, Only thing is I needed to buy myself an adapter for the usb c displayport, I was afraid that it wouldn't work but it did! Though I have seen some people claim that it has not worked for them, but maybe it is thanks to the quality of the adapters that they bought. I would assume that it runs a quest 2 no problem. Only bad thing is that it gets so freaking hot when gaming, I measured my temps and found that the cpu can get up to 95 C, which is a safe temperature but still quite hot to the touch. Other than that, highly recommended!
Don't know about the exact model, but from my personal experience and anecdotal evidence from a good few reddit threads, ROG Zephyrus g14 doesn't seem to cooperate very well with the Quest 2 for some reason. I'm not entirely sure why. It is definitely possible and I have cracked through with it before, but it ended up with a very slow frame rate on VRChat. Anyways, that's beside the point, I just wanted to comment this incase anyone was looking for this laptop for the Quest 2 specifically, be sure to research the compatibility! Seems perfectly fine for other headsets though :)
Im looking at laptops in my budget, I have an oculus quest two, aswell as a link cable. I was looking at this laptop, I’m hoping it runs vr at least decently, it’s around 950$ and the specs are: Performance Processor Intel Core i7-11800H (11th Gen) CPU 2.4 to 4.6 GHz 8-Core Memory Type 3200 MHz DDR4 Total Installed Memory 16 GB Memory Configuration 2 x 8 GB (User-Replaceable) Maximum Memory Capacity 64 GB Memory Slot Type 260-Pin SO-DIMM Memory Slots 2 (0 Available) Graphics Type Dedicated GPU NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti with 4 GB GDDR6 VRAM
@@monashaVR I got a desktop for the same price(: but a bit cheaper! It’s got a 5600G and a rx6600XT, raplaced the memory with 16gb stick. Runs everything incredibly well. Laptops are great, but for the same price you get alot more performance going with a prebuilt desktop. On best buy, a prebuilt with a ryzen5 3600 and a rx6600 goes for 1,029$ which is more than enough. for running VR games.
my question at this time is can you use a chromebook for pcvr? ive seen a video talking about a gaming chromebook for $500 and was curious if pcvr is possible.
Hey awesome video. I am new to PC gaming. I ended up getting a 2020 Razer blade 15 2070 max Q, 16 gig ram, I set up my laptop to run virtual desktop to my quest 2 to run half life Alyx and it worked nice but my fans were running full blast (very loud) and the laptop was hot to touch. Is this normal? or would running the link cable be less work for the razer blade? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for helping out a noob!
Half Life Alyx really is a difficult game to run , if things stay really hot you should buy a cooling pad ( plate with an additional fan) that will help
Yes! Asus G14 is great. AMD has amazing thermal performance & pricing, better gaming battery life too. Can’t wait to see more AMD 4000 series laptops. Worth noting it doesn’t have a webcam though, but you can always plug in a USB one. Alternative would be an Legion 15, Omen 15 or TUF 15, but that extra inch and extra cash might not be worth it. 15 inch gaming laptops are not as durable as 14 inch ones, tend not to last as long when used portably.
Hey I was looking to get a a good laptop to use with my quest 2. I liked this one but it doesn't have a c port. Could I use an adapter? & If so does it effect the quality at all? I'm just looking for a good laptop to watch at least 5k vr videos on my Q2.

My budget is up to 2300 & any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a laptop with GTX 1050, and VR barely runs (Via Virtual Desktop on Quest 2). I was able to finish games like Apex Construct, Doctor Who or Angry Birds VR, and the experience wasn't perfect, but it was playable. However any more demanding games like Raw Data, Saints and Sinners, or HL Alyx were unplayable. It's still worth a try though ;)
Thanks for this video man! I built another desktop for vr. I've got the ryzen 7 5800x non 3d :(, Asus 3070, and samsung 980 pro 2tb m.2. It's been running vr hella smooth! Got a Pico headset for it too.

Hi, I'm going for the MSI GT72 Dominator pro 17.3 " , i7-5700HQ, 16GB RAM with the Geforce GTX 980M with 8GB GDDR5, will this run well with the Oculus rift s ?
i just ordered a MSI gl75 17" with a 1660TI 6gb, i7 10th gen with 16gb ram and a 256ssd 1tb hdd 144hz, its costed 1049$ renewed on amazon, that should be pretty decent for VR im presuming? also im aiming for the oculus rift S.
@@ChapoGuzman896 on amazon , but it seemed to be the last one at that pricing, after i bought it similar builds came up with those search parameter's costing over 1150$, also mine was renewed but i have no problem with that, they run all the tests to make sure its just fine when they renew them so.
@@Here_is_Waldo its fantastic man, handling it greatly as long as i plug it in, off the battery it lags significantly but im running asgaurds wrath with all medium settings and textures on high on the oculus rift s, as for regular AAA games non vr it seems to do well either way and my only complaint is the battery life so i would like to get one of those laptop battery banks but theres so many options on amazon, i am considering this one though www.amazon.com/PROGENY-Generator-Portable-Generators-Emergency/dp/B07S74MCQM/ref=pd_ybh_a_4?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=Q7AJDMZJ8943BCQKMDK1 , i just hope 280 watts is enough for this laptop im not to savy when it comes to battery banks and what wattage certain things are in need of, if anyone has any suggestions on what i should get for this laptop it would be greatly appreciated thanks all :)
@@MadfugginMax I don't know how many watts the laptop uses, but I would guess that's enough. I have an old Aliuenware 17inch laptop that maxes out at 180w, so I'd think yours shouldn't be any higher. Easy to check if you have a look at the power pack and see what the maximum wattage output it has on it, that should be the maximum the laptop draws. That battery pack you're looking at also has 250Wh written on the side, though. If memory serves, that would mean it can only run for an hour with a draw of 250w on it. If your laptop draws 125w, then it'll only be able to power it for 2 hours for example. (Also keep in mind you shouldn't totally discharge a battery pack or it will slowly die over time, so total run time will be slightly less than advertised.) It does have a pure sine wave inverter on it, which is what you want, and it seems small and portable. If only an extra hour or two is all you want, it looks like it might be good. Otherwise I'd suggest looking for something with a bigger battery.
hello i wanted to know what laptop works best with the oculus rift s and is cheap im only 15 lol so i dont have a lot of money an di didnt know you needed a good laptop i have a lenovo t420 :(((( can someone pls help
I don’t know very much about computer talk so I’m new at this I just got a home in 15 and they oculus two my omen 15 I upgraded to 16 gig ram and ice seven graphics card will it do VR??? I’m not expecting a blowout performance I just want to run OK graphics that are suitable for my situation
This makes me happy that i spent soo much on my damn laptop 🤣 i know that desktops run alot better but I like the fact that i can use my 2070 super GPU while in my bed 😅 or have a pcvr experience in my living room with ease
Facts! I have not had a PC since 2007. And don't plan on buying one now. I have been a laptop user since 2009. I just love the simplicity of building the factor built for me.
I have an AMD RYZEN 5 3550H with radeon vega mobile gtx processor. And a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 graphic card. Will it meet the requirements of an HTC VIVE?
Ok so I looked up the Asus and I was wondering how big of a deal/problem is having half the ram soldered to the motherboard. I guess it is upgraded some what but I know you say stay away from it. I am guessing I could never put a 16 in because the soldered one is an 8. Just wondering, trying to figure out which laptop to work toward.
Love this video it helped me allot ^^ also would love to see u make more of these or an update^^ Also ive ben able to run an htc vive and htc vive pro 2 on an gtx 1030 3gb gpu so it wil work ^^
My PC was running fine until a few days ago when it would stop displaying everytime I would run SteamVR Home and any other VR game. Does anyone have a solution or had the same problem?
What GPU do you have? Are you plugged directly into a usb c port or do you have a 2000/3000 series Nvidia card that you can plug directly into? I cant say I've experienced the same, as a matter of fact I haven't had any issues with plugging directly into my 2070 super.
If you go to oculus they say that a gtx 1060m won’t work but a desktop will. I’m guessing m means mobile which is laptop. So by what this guy says is it ok to use a gtx 1060m?
A 1060m should work, but the problem is that some laptops the video connector port on the side doesn't connect directly to the video card, so they can't run VR properly. You'll have to check that before getting the laptop. Though the main difference between a desktop and laptop video card is that the laptop is a stepped down, lower wattage version of the desktop, so it will never be as powerful as it's bigger brother.
I found a 2019 razer blade advanced with Rtx 2070 super for 1,499 plus tax :) Also, this solved everything i needed to know about vr gameplay on a razer device. Thank you!
I need help I'm trying to work for a gaming laptop. See I just need one that will connect to my laptop because the Last laptop I got wouldn't connect. Does anyone have any suggestions on that?
Anyone know how I would connect my oculus quest 2 to my Dell inspiron 15 3000, I want to use big screen to stream movies and I’ve seen there are ways around it, so sad that I cannot figure it out and may not be able to do it. Any help would be appreciated
Broskie! Don't fall for NVIDIA forcing you to make an account to use Geforce Experience. You can update your GPU drivers from their website. You probably know but it always good to get a heads up.
My laptop has an 8th gen i5, 16gb ram and a gtx 1050ti and I haven’t found a VR game yet that I couldn’t play in atleast low settings. Not full 90fps like people like but I don’t get motion sick from lower frame rates than that I tend to hover around 50-60 on low in vr games Edit: headset is Oculus quest one
My Laptop has a 960M 4gb and failed Steam's VR test epicly. Thankfully the 5700XT in my desktop makes easy work of it. I'm curious to see the price points of next year's 30 series laptops. Great video!
Is there an easy way to get smooth feeling in vr but without it looking amazing (Cuz I don't really want amazing graphics) with my GTX 1050? (Ya know, 360p gang anyway)

@@asduhaisjdjasd First you haven't started why. Second it's not that you shouldn't buy a prebuilt PC. But it's just that you should avoid not reputable companies. I feel like your just repeating what everyone else says.
Unless you absolutely need a laptop get a PC my dude. And remember that if you get an oculus quest 2 you don’t even need a PC or laptop to run it, it already has the specs of a half decent laptop.
Before Thunderbolt 3 ports were a thing, people used mPCIe ports and even the antiquated Expresscard slots. It's definitely doable but not that recommended. Source: Had a GTX460 eGPU in a Lenovo T400.
Right?? I mean i always see them people suggesting making sure to have all the ports you need but i mean you can literally buy a port adapter with everything from usb to hdmi for like 30-50$ (depends on the quality), anyways happy gaming fellow gamer
I'm looking for a laptop that can work with the occulus quest 2. I just want to play beat saber and vrchat. But I can't afford more than 700 dollars. Should I give up?
can you help me? idk much about technology but im trying to decide the right laptop for the oculus quest 2 but also something at the price of 1,500 or under. i want to improve the resolution and all the other good stuff to make it look amazing.
Hmmm, have you taken a look at the Asus Zephyrus G14? It's in that price range and depending on the configuration you choose it can have some pretty powerful specs.
ok i searched it and it looks good but is it good as the one you recommended or better? like you said in the video get something of the higher end if you can and i can go higher but i dont want to spend over 2k on a laptop tho i just want the perfect laptop that will last me a lifetime.
Since 2016 (when I got my original Vive) I've left gaming laptops behind. More money for lesser performance and non upgradable. Sure you can take it to the beach and play VR, but honestly how does that, not to mention you won't be doing it very long as battery becomes an issue while gaming. I have gotten into and LOVE building powerful ITX PC. I can take it with me to my sisters or a friends house to play VR and am getting all the performance of a big boy PC, for about the same amount of cash, or less, than a high performant gaming laptop will cost (while giving less actual performance). Now if you just want one and have the cash, have at it. Just saying most people should consider what is actually the better option for them.
I want a not that expensive laptop so I can be able to play VR chat and non Vr games I want to use the index headset and controllers as well what laptop would you recommend?
I got my Acer predator helios 300 in 2016-2017 with very similar specs to your 2018 model razerblade, for less than 1,200$! I've been using it as my primary computer this whole time, with no problems. The only downside is the shitty monitor, being made mostly of plastic, and being a hefty boi. Super happy so far, but its getting to be upgrade time, and time to finally get a desktop.
I recently bought an ASUS TUF fx505 for 580usd and it actually runs half life alyx, on the lowest settings mind you. Gtx1650, i5 9300H Upgraded ran to 16gb of high quality ram. I wish I was able to add a egpu later down the road and wish it had a lightning bolt or USB 3.0 slot but ehhh I can play most steam vr games using virtual desktop!
Another laptop I did a lot of research on and am planning on buying on black friday is the Acer Predator Helios 300 It comes in 15 or 17 in size and with 2060 or 2070 with ram and storage above 16 and 512gb. Highly recommend looking into it as it's not as expensive ad laptops with similar specs
I am currently looking for a pc which allows me to play VR games on Quest 2 and taking adventage of the 4k screen. So it should run at highest graphic settings also on upcoming titles and handle the high refresh rates of 90Hz (possible 120Hz in the future) also I want to stream everything over WLAN, so a build in WLAN module might be needed or an external router. Curently looking at used hardware and pcs with rtx 2070 super and Ryzen 5 3600x for around 700€ seems possible. But with new Ryzen chips and the nvidia 3070 cards on the market it might be smarter to build a new pc instead for just a slightly higher price.
I forgot that Premiere Pro Does That... There is image corruption in the video at 8:14. I don't think there's a way to fix that only by rendering using CPU instead of GPU. Sorry about that

Don't know about the exact model, but from my personal experience and anecdotal evidence from a good few reddit threads, ROG Zephyrus g14 doesn't seem to cooperate very well with the Quest 2 for some reason.
I'm not entirely sure why. It is definitely possible and I have cracked through with it before, but it ended up with a very slow frame rate on VRChat.
Anyways, that's beside the point, I just wanted to comment this incase anyone was looking for this laptop for the Quest 2 specifically, be sure to research the compatibility! Seems perfectly fine for other headsets though :)
Im looking at laptops in my budget, I have an oculus quest two, aswell as a link cable. I was looking at this laptop, I’m hoping it runs vr at least decently, it’s around 950$ and the specs are:
Performance
Processor Intel Core i7-11800H (11th Gen)
CPU 2.4 to 4.6 GHz 8-Core
Memory Type 3200 MHz DDR4
Total Installed Memory 16 GB
Memory Configuration 2 x 8 GB (User-Replaceable)
Maximum Memory Capacity 64 GB
Memory Slot Type 260-Pin SO-DIMM
Memory Slots 2 (0 Available)
Graphics Type Dedicated
GPU NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti with 4 GB GDDR6 VRAM
looking for this too
So.. did u get it? If so how well is it runs?
@@monashaVR I got a desktop for the same price(: but a bit cheaper! It’s got a 5600G and a rx6600XT, raplaced the memory with 16gb stick. Runs everything incredibly well. Laptops are great, but for the same price you get alot more performance going with a prebuilt desktop. On best buy, a prebuilt with a ryzen5 3600 and a rx6600 goes for 1,029$ which is more than enough. for running VR games.
@@monashaVR a 3050 wouldn’t do well with vr at all, it only has 4GB vram, and vr needs basically 8 gb minimum for enjoyable experience.
my question at this time is can you use a chromebook for pcvr? ive seen a video talking about a gaming chromebook for $500 and was curious if pcvr is possible.
Hey awesome video.
I am new to PC gaming. I ended up getting a 2020 Razer blade 15 2070 max Q, 16 gig ram, I set up my laptop to run virtual desktop to my quest 2 to run half life Alyx and it worked nice but my fans were running full blast (very loud) and the laptop was hot to touch. Is this normal? or would running the link cable be less work for the razer blade? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for helping out a noob!
Half Life Alyx really is a difficult game to run , if things stay really hot you should buy a cooling pad ( plate with an additional fan) that will help
Yes! Asus G14 is great. AMD has amazing thermal performance & pricing, better gaming battery life too. Can’t wait to see more AMD 4000 series laptops. Worth noting it doesn’t have a webcam though, but you can always plug in a USB one. Alternative would be an Legion 15, Omen 15 or TUF 15, but that extra inch and extra cash might not be worth it. 15 inch gaming laptops are not as durable as 14 inch ones, tend not to last as long when used portably.
G14 gang
Would the g14 also be good for school work and things like 3d modelling?
Tuf is hot, better to go for Nitro
Hey I was looking to get a a good laptop to use with my quest 2. I liked this one but it doesn't have a c port. Could I use an adapter? & If so does it effect the quality at all?
I'm just looking for a good laptop to watch at least 5k vr videos on my Q2.
MSI GP76 Leopard Gaming Laptop: 17.3" 240Hz IPS-Level Display, Intel Core i7-11800H, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070, 16GB, 1TB SSD, Win10, Black (11UG-076)
I've been struggling to find a laptop to pull the trigger on. My budget is up to 2300 & any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a laptop with GTX 1050, and VR barely runs (Via Virtual Desktop on Quest 2). I was able to finish games like Apex Construct, Doctor Who or Angry Birds VR, and the experience wasn't perfect, but it was playable. However any more demanding games like Raw Data, Saints and Sinners, or HL Alyx were unplayable. It's still worth a try though ;)
Thanks for this video man! I built another desktop for vr. I've got the ryzen 7 5800x non 3d :(, Asus 3070, and samsung 980 pro 2tb m.2. It's been running vr hella smooth! Got a Pico headset for it too.
Could I hook my quest 2 up to this laptop

Hi, I'm going for the MSI GT72 Dominator pro 17.3 " , i7-5700HQ, 16GB RAM with the Geforce GTX 980M with 8GB GDDR5, will this run well with the Oculus rift s ?
Nah GTX 980 is gonna be painful
i just ordered a MSI gl75 17" with a 1660TI 6gb, i7 10th gen with 16gb ram and a 256ssd 1tb hdd 144hz, its costed 1049$ renewed on amazon, that should be pretty decent for VR im presuming? also im aiming for the oculus rift S.
Where did you buy that sir?
@@ChapoGuzman896 on amazon , but it seemed to be the last one at that pricing, after i bought it similar builds came up with those search parameter's costing over 1150$, also mine was renewed but i have no problem with that, they run all the tests to make sure its just fine when they renew them so.
From what I've heard a 1660ti will do, but isn't the best. Have you got your laptop yet? How is it handling VR?
@@Here_is_Waldo its fantastic man, handling it greatly as long as i plug it in, off the battery it lags significantly but im running asgaurds wrath with all medium settings and textures on high on the oculus rift s, as for regular AAA games non vr it seems to do well either way and my only complaint is the battery life so i would like to get one of those laptop battery banks but theres so many options on amazon, i am considering this one though www.amazon.com/PROGENY-Generator-Portable-Generators-Emergency/dp/B07S74MCQM/ref=pd_ybh_a_4?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=Q7AJDMZJ8943BCQKMDK1 , i just hope 280 watts is enough for this laptop im not to savy when it comes to battery banks and what wattage certain things are in need of, if anyone has any suggestions on what i should get for this laptop it would be greatly appreciated thanks all :)
@@MadfugginMax I don't know how many watts the laptop uses, but I would guess that's enough. I have an old Aliuenware 17inch laptop that maxes out at 180w, so I'd think yours shouldn't be any higher. Easy to check if you have a look at the power pack and see what the maximum wattage output it has on it, that should be the maximum the laptop draws.
That battery pack you're looking at also has 250Wh written on the side, though. If memory serves, that would mean it can only run for an hour with a draw of 250w on it. If your laptop draws 125w, then it'll only be able to power it for 2 hours for example. (Also keep in mind you shouldn't totally discharge a battery pack or it will slowly die over time, so total run time will be slightly less than advertised.)
It does have a pure sine wave inverter on it, which is what you want, and it seems small and portable. If only an extra hour or two is all you want, it looks like it might be good. Otherwise I'd suggest looking for something with a bigger battery.
will a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650, 8GB memory, work for the oculus quest 2 with a link cable
ASUS - ROG Strix G15 15.6" Laptop - Intel Core i7 16GB Memory NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 1TB SSD is this able to run vr?
it should be able to run pretty much every vr game smoothly with max or adjusted settings

hello i wanted to know what laptop works best with the oculus rift s and is cheap im only 15 lol so i dont have a lot of money an di didnt know you needed a good laptop i have a lenovo t420 :(((( can someone pls help
I don’t know very much about computer talk so I’m new at this I just got a home in 15 and they oculus two my omen 15 I upgraded to 16 gig ram and ice seven graphics card will it do VR??? I’m not expecting a blowout performance I just want to run OK graphics that are suitable for my situation
This makes me happy that i spent soo much on my damn laptop 🤣 i know that desktops run alot better but I like the fact that i can use my 2070 super GPU while in my bed 😅 or have a pcvr experience in my living room with ease
Facts! I have not had a PC since 2007. And don't plan on buying one now. I have been a laptop user since 2009. I just love the simplicity of building the factor built for me.
What headset do you have?
vive index oculus rift Vive pro oculus quest two oculus quest one oculus The one controller
This is a important question I have a Samsung chrombook it’s the latest version, is it vr ready?
How about the AMD Ryzen 5 5600H 6 Core Processor
16GB RAM AMD Radeon RX 5500 Mobile Graphics.
How does this perform with VR
I have an AMD RYZEN 5 3550H with radeon vega mobile gtx processor. And a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 graphic card. Will it meet the requirements of an HTC VIVE?
Nope
Ok so I looked up the Asus and I was wondering how big of a deal/problem is having half the ram soldered to the motherboard. I guess it is upgraded some what but I know you say stay away from it. I am guessing I could never put a 16 in because the soldered one is an 8. Just wondering, trying to figure out which laptop to work toward.
Really good video cheers! First one I have seen confirming VR is possible on a laptop.
Love this video it helped me allot ^^ also would love to see u make more of these or an update^^
Also ive ben able to run an htc vive and htc vive pro 2 on an gtx 1030 3gb gpu so it wil work ^^
My PC was running fine until a few days ago when it would stop displaying everytime I would run SteamVR Home and any other VR game. Does anyone have a solution or had the same problem?
Wot headset you have?
@@sniperpiss3946 Oculus Quest 2
What GPU do you have? Are you plugged directly into a usb c port or do you have a 2000/3000 series Nvidia card that you can plug directly into? I cant say I've experienced the same, as a matter of fact I haven't had any issues with plugging directly into my 2070 super.
@@TheGauges420 I have a RTX 2060 that's plugged into the monitor with a DisplayPort cable.
If you go to oculus they say that a gtx 1060m won’t work but a desktop will. I’m guessing m means mobile which is laptop. So by what this guy says is it ok to use a gtx 1060m?
A 1060m should work, but the problem is that some laptops the video connector port on the side doesn't connect directly to the video card, so they can't run VR properly. You'll have to check that before getting the laptop. Though the main difference between a desktop and laptop video card is that the laptop is a stepped down, lower wattage version of the desktop, so it will never be as powerful as it's bigger brother.
What laptop( s ) do you recommend for VR flying ? ( MFS200 and X-Plane 11 ) thank you. !
I found a 2019 razer blade advanced with Rtx 2070 super for 1,499 plus tax :)

Anyone know how I would connect my oculus quest 2 to my Dell inspiron 15 3000, I want to use big screen to stream movies and I’ve seen there are ways around it, so sad that I cannot figure it out and may not be able to do it. Any help would be appreciated
Thanks for the video! Just bought a laptop with a 3060 in it
Broskie! Don't fall for NVIDIA forcing you to make an account to use Geforce Experience. You can update your GPU drivers from their website.
You probably know but it always good to get a heads up.
Asus tuf 505hd. R7 3750h, gtx 1650 is a great deal for a laptop that can run VR. $1200 two years ago, Canadian.
Do you think the Lenovo legion 5 is a good vr ready laptop
My laptop has an 8th gen i5, 16gb ram and a gtx 1050ti and I haven’t found a VR game yet that I couldn’t play in atleast low settings. Not full 90fps like people like but I don’t get motion sick from lower frame rates than that I tend to hover around 50-60 on low in vr games
Edit: headset is Oculus quest one
Any recommendations for a price range of £1000?

I saved for so long but my mom helped me get an rtx 2060 so excited to get my laptop but also getting some moree ram :)
Dude! This helped me out so much! Thank you!
Unless you absolutely need a laptop get a PC my dude. And remember that if you get an oculus quest 2 you don’t even need a PC or laptop to run it, it already has the specs of a half decent laptop.
@@lucashurley7612 not everyone wants a gaming pc 😐 others wave a laptop something portal and cheaper.
Does VR work on Asus Nitro 5 ?
Do you think that an MSI GE66 would work with oculus link
is it better value to get g14 or g15 now? :)
Is there a way to use an external GPU with a laptop that doesn't have a thunderbolt port? Maybe a PCI-E extension?
Before Thunderbolt 3 ports were a thing, people used mPCIe ports and even the antiquated Expresscard slots. It's definitely doable but not that recommended. Source: Had a GTX460 eGPU in a Lenovo T400.
Can someone please answer my question do you need a pc and a laptop or can you just have a vr ready laptop
You can have just a laptop
will you make the same video for desktops? Maybe with budget parts?
Would have to disagree on needing laptops with ports because that issue can be resolved with a $40 port adapter.
Right?? I mean i always see them people suggesting making sure to have all the ports you need but i mean you can literally buy a port adapter with everything from usb to hdmi for like 30-50$ (depends on the quality), anyways happy gaming fellow gamer

U mean quest 2?
I'm looking for a laptop that can work with the occulus quest 2. I just want to play beat saber and vrchat. But I can't afford more than 700 dollars. Should I give up?
give up on laptop maybe a tower depends on area
If you have a quest 2 you can play VRChat and Beat saber inside your headset wirelessly without needing a computer at all
can you help me? idk much about technology but im trying to decide the right laptop for the oculus quest 2 but also something at the price of 1,500 or under. i want to improve the resolution and all the other good stuff to make it look amazing.
Hmmm, have you taken a look at the Asus Zephyrus G14? It's in that price range and depending on the configuration you choose it can have some pretty powerful specs.
ok i searched it and it looks good but is it good as the one you recommended or better? like you said in the video get something of the higher end if you can and i can go higher but i dont want to spend over 2k on a laptop tho i just want the perfect laptop that will last me a lifetime.
Since 2016 (when I got my original Vive) I've left gaming laptops behind. More money for lesser performance and non upgradable. Sure you can take it to the beach and play VR, but honestly how does that, not to mention you won't be doing it very long as battery becomes an issue while gaming.
I have gotten into and LOVE building powerful ITX PC. I can take it with me to my sisters or a friends house to play VR and am getting all the performance of a big boy PC, for about the same amount of cash, or less, than a high performant gaming laptop will cost (while giving less actual performance).
Now if you just want one and have the cash, have at it. Just saying most people should consider what is actually the better option for them.
I want a not that expensive laptop so I can be able to play VR chat and non Vr games I want to use the index headset and controllers as well what laptop would you recommend?

Tf, I swear I haven’t even seen this video?????
I am currently looking for a pc which allows me to play VR games on Quest 2 and taking adventage of the 4k screen. So it should run at highest graphic settings also on upcoming titles and handle the high refresh rates of 90Hz (possible 120Hz in the future) also I want to stream everything over WLAN, so a build in WLAN module might be needed or an external router.
Curently looking at used hardware and pcs with rtx 2070 super and Ryzen 5 3600x for around 700€ seems possible.
But with new Ryzen chips and the nvidia 3070 cards on the market it might be smarter to build a new pc instead for just a slightly higher price.
Is the new Mac mini M1 good for vr gaming and gaming in general for RUclips and stream ?
Mac does not like video games being played on their system.
