Hardware required:

  • VR-capable gaming PC. See your headset manufacturer's recommendations, but generally this:

    • i5 or Ryzen 5 or better CPU *

    • Discrete GPU with at least 4G of video RAM

  • For Quest, a link between the PC and the headset

    • Airlink:

      • PC should be on wired Ethernet. The PC does not need to be near where you are using your headset, just on the same network. You can control it through your headset.

      • Headset should be close to your router. It doesn't necessarily need to be in the same room, but you do need a strong signal for acceptable results.

      • Ensure that you connect to a 5GHz band with the headset.

    • Link Cable

      • USB-C cable with super-speed capability (USB3 speed). Obviously, the PC needs to be close enough for your USB cable to reach.

      • The Oculus-branded cable works of course, but so do many others.

      • Does not require that the PC use wired Ethernet

    • More information here: https://support.oculus.com/airlink/

* I've heard of one report of this working with an i3 but do not have details at this time. Everything that you need is free, so you might just want to try it.


Software

  • Windows software for the headset

    • If you have a PCVR-only headset, you already have this

    • For Quest, download the Oculus app from Meta or the Windows store

  • Steam

    • Free, install from steampowered.com

    • Login or create a new account. Then open the Steam store in the app, and install the remaining components. These are also free.

  • SteamVR

  • OVR Advanced Settings

  • Bigscreen VR
