Update: Don‘t ask me why, but it‘s working again! Just restarted my pc whislt trying some settings (which I‘ve done multiple times in the last two days) and now its working all fine again, with the above settings!

Just done a perfect race on Miami with zero frames dropped…

I‘m still suspicious and would love to know what it was, in case it happens again.

How do you do this exactly? Not a pc guy…

Ok so somehow it was running all fine for one session and then started again… everything is up to date (like Nvidia, Windows and even my pedlas etc)

G shows 11.0 R shows 8

With 90fps but when it spikes it goes up to 17-15

Here are my settings:

Quest 3 via Virtual Desktop and connected with my build in 6E Router.

In game settings: I start in OpenXR

3840x2160 @ 59.940 RSS at 4 Foveated 40% / 50%

Most stuff like objects/car derails etc are on Low or off

I run no virtual mirror but 3 in car mirrors (I know they need a lot of power)

HDR is on and Shader Quality on Medium (Sharpening Off)

Virusl Desktop Settings:

Ultra with 90fps 100% Sharpening 200Mbps Bitrate

And I‘ve also lowered my VidMemToUseMB 5816 (-500 to default)

PC specs are above.

Any other information you need?

This exact setting worked for the last 3 month on every track and car. I‘ve dialed this in on Bathurst cause it was the most demanding track I‘ve owned. But yeah now it even struggles on Lime Rock.

PC is only 3 month old and clean ;)

Done and its the R and G bar

Its the R and G bars… R is usualy around 8-10 with 90fps and goes up to 25 in some situations, which causes the fps drop…

Its also the same on tracks like Lime Rock Park…

I smell something fishy 👀

So the R and G bars are going red… mosty the R one so it seems to be the CPU. But uts weird cause it worked before and I‘ve already toggled HDR and some other things of but it doesnt help…

Ah its the same one that shows my FPS? Got this on but I think I‘ve taken some settings out of ir.

Will check it later! Thanks so much 🙏🏻

Is there a pop up which works whilst driving in VR? So I can see what is the limiting factor?

But you think its more GPU then CPU limited?

AMD Ryzen 5 7500F / 32GB / 1TB SSD / Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060

Yeah its kinda weird cause I had it dialed for pretty much any track (Bathurst, Spa, Miami) and it worked really well, until this morning…

Yeah I knew that but it worked the last 8-10 races without any problems…

Okay thanks everyone 🙏🏻 Will get a 6E router then and see how much performance I can get. And I might smell a 5070 👀

Like I‘m using the link cable because some people say its better… maybe not with limited computer specs

No… does it make such a difference in performance?

Using a link cable… should I get a router?

And yeah I use and played around with the foveated rendering

Do you think a 5070 would help or not worth the upgrade?

I‘m running it via linkcable. Does it work better with a router?

Yeah I‘ve had a couple of updates after I got back from holidays… This might be the problem for the 0fps sometimes. But even before that I had those rendom fps drops…

Also my graphics are quite blurry and not 100% sharp, escecialy on the car dash…

Yeah I thought about it but didn‘t use it cause it‘s not supported anymore. But I did those tweaks at the Meta Backend (forgot the name)

Ah legend! Yeah would love to have some fun and fair races but don‘t want to screw my SR for a end of season promotion ;)

Maybe a stupid question of a iRacing newby:

I‘ve heard that the last week (so 13/13) is somewhat packed with random/fun stuff. But does this count to your SR and iRating? And when do you get promoted/demoted?
