So the Radeon RX 7600 isn't a bad GPU. Whether or not it's worth it's asking price is a point for debate, but when it comes to playing games in VR it's definitely worth considering depending on your budget. If your gaming with a Quest 2 headset however, there is some stuff you're going to want to know about Meta's PC software (aka the Oculus App, Quest Link & AirLink). While AMD updated their drivers in July 2023 finally fixing VR performance with their Radeon 7000 series GPU's; at the time I'm making this video, Meta has yet to get the Oculus PC app working properly with them. In this video I go over some of the problems I encountered while testing the RX 7600 with my Quest 2 as well as test it in 12 different VR games, namely Pavlov, The Walking Dead Saints and Sinners, Beat Saber, Breachers, Contractors, Red Matter 2, Blade & Sorcery, Half Life Alyx, Lone Echo 2, Into the Radius, Assetto Corsa Competizione and Microsoft Flight Simulator. If you use a different headset like the HTC Vive, Valve Index or HP Reverb G2 that doesn't rely on an encoded video stream then the problems I experienced shouldn't effect you, but for those using a Quest 2 like me, at least we have Virtual Desktop to fall back on. Thank you Guy Godin!
