Hi all!

Would love for any tips for improving performance for my HTC Vive. I have a 1070 but still have a nauseating amount of stutter which kinda makes it unusable.

Thanks!

Edit: Worth noting that I’m seeing a bunch of pink lines on the SteamVR display graph.

    It’s a bit disheartening that VR is still not a good experience on Linux. I was wrestling with my Vive several years ago now, but I just got sick of dealing with it (literally and figuratively) due to the jitter, randomly breaking features (even mid-session), crashes, and other random things. It was a coin toss every time whether it was going to even launch at all.

    It just wasn’t worth it, so it has been collecting dust now for a few years. Was hoping that one day I’d be able to just plug it in and have an ok time.

      Randomly breaking stuff in updates is annoying yes, but when it works it works fine here with an AMD GPU. Maybe a Nvidia thing what you describe?

        Yes, that’s what I’m wondering. I’m seeing reports of people saying it works fine. Perhaps you should give it another go after all these years and report back on performance here so we can try and isolate the issue!
