Can you imagine if they replace the internals of the quest 3 with an ally.modified the software to just run vr as a all in one headset. Rog get on this asap!
This is great... I am curious to see if anybody can get this working with the external GPU module and how that will affect performance. I like to maintain a bit higher refresh rate for motion sickness but this does look interesting.
@@Jdb63 Indeed it does. In most circumstances it would be completely ridiculous. I am highly mobile however and this would potentially be a perfect fit for a really mobile setup that wouldn't overload a carry-on.
Is impressive I’ve been enjoying Elite and ETs2 in VR though mine. Was bit of bonus when I found out it could run VR as I just assumed it couldn’t for a while
Works via USBC Oculus link running native PC VR apps with the Quest Pro. Would recommend plugging in, instead of using Virtual Desktop. Just need to find a way to strap the ally to the waist. (Which you barely feel)
I just played elite dangerous on my ally. The text is really hard to read but I was completely immersed. I'm not that versed into what I should do to get better quality ..maybe someone can get better results. I did not connect my Ally to a dock because I wanted a full wireless experience and also wanted to use it as a controller. As a portable all in one vr experience is incredible we can play a game like elite on the go
In elite settings goto graphics preset and scroll down and set it to Medium VR it helps a lot making the letters clearer. It runs a lot better and cuts out all the stutter using Steam Link as well it’s a bit stuttery if you use Quest Link I found.
I have the rog ally & a meta quest 3 I’ve really been thinking about trying pcvr on it and see if it works for myself. Only negative is my left analog stick went out on my rog yesterday for the 2nd time, only reads going up and down. Ordered some replacements tho.
ive just ordered my rog ally because its on sale i have quest 2 iam going to play assetto corsa on my monitor with my racing wheel which i use for xbox but iam very curious to see if the vr would work on assetto corsa if on a low rez
it absolutely can. no issues with it really with that 4070. I will maybe do some videos of VR with the X13 4070, (which is really close to the Z13 acronym)
Could Halflife Alyx be played offline after an initial setup. For e.g : Can you plug the Quest 2 into the ROG ALLY? Perhaps with some kind of adapter? I am thinking of making an adapter to fit the Ally to a belt and play it on the go would be crazy. But I don’t have an Ally but would definitely buy one if it were possible to plug the Quest 2 into it rather than using a network.
Hard to say... virtual desktop seems to remove any driver and displayport problems that could arise from the equation. most likely the rift s would say "incompatible graphics" or something like that.
Looks like Alyx is maxing out both the system memory and vram. Would probably play much smoother if the Ally had 32gb of ram as HL Alyx is a real memory hog.
Could you retest these games with the ssw on and with the vr performance toolkit? Would love to see performance in half life alyx with that performance mod enabled lol 😂
Meta, please put 2 x z1 extreme apus in your meta quest 4. This should make it possible to play proper PC quality games natively. I know it will be expensive but hardcore gamers will always find a way to get enough money to fund their gaming addiction.
Even the "link" wired USB-C connection relys on encode->decode same as virtual desktop. The difference is that the oculus software will tell you your GPU isn't compatible.
@@cbutters Interesting. In my testing, performance was generally better with wired vs virtual desktop. I still use virtual desktop as I prefer it to occulus, but if it's the same or just doesn't work, then this is a solid test.
If the 1 st gen of Ally works this well in terms of VR capability, imagine the future of all these pc handheld devices!😊

RIGHT?? that would be my dream vr headset i stg
Wow, you playtested HL: Alyx and Beat Saber, furthermore you chose Curtains (All Night Long)? You are the most reliable reviewer of it.
This is absolutely bonkers. Gonna have to try Half Life Alyx myself now
I might get it for my birthday and I hope I can play half life and b&s so bad
Half Life Alyx test was what I was waiting for, unbelievable nobody else did it. Now I’ll gett an Ally and retire my desktop PC 🙂
I’ll get the Quest 3 next month… I hope it works great to on the Ally! 🙏🏼

oh yeah, with the XG mobile, this thing will absolutely FLY for VR... won't be any problems playing anything with that 4090 xg mobile attached.
The external GPU costs double the price of the Ally itself
@@Jdb63 Indeed it does. In most circumstances it would be completely ridiculous. I am highly mobile however and this would potentially be a perfect fit for a really mobile setup that wouldn't overload a carry-on.
@@bikerelc Fair enough. If you got the money it'd be a dope setup
Aw, man, beat me to it. I was going to get this with the External GPU dock. It could, hopefully, run much better.

The 780m graphics are supported by oculus link?
@@cbuttersno shit look do research before doing stuff like this 😂😂

Kinda wanna see Skyrim vr and fallout 4 vr
Have you seen it done yet pleaseee tell me
@@Nasties_1 not yet. Neither console is powerful enough.
Great video!! Can you share all the settings? I installed Alyx on my ROG ALLY, and my graphics look very bad and blurry. Thank you in advance. 🎮 🔧

just ordered a meta quest 3. will be testing it out myself as well
@@Erks89 let me know how it works if you get the chance
Could you see if Skyrim or more complex games would be playable? I’m curious to see if the resident evil 2 vr mod would run this

I played borderlands 2 vr on steam deck with virtual desktop 72fps (windows). I was amazed. No router required either I used wifi direct.
Can quest 2 work on the rog ASUS z13 acronym? If so can you do a video?
it absolutely can. no issues with it really with that 4070. I will maybe do some videos of VR with the X13 4070, (which is really close to the Z13 acronym)
@@cbutters awesome! Can’t wait to see! Thanks!
Also can you test some other games like Pavlov VR or into the radius

Yeah, if you get a USB-C hub that has power in, you could run the quest 2 on it via cable.
@@cbuttersThank you for your reply and thank you for the video. What a fantastic breakdown of an amazing product I never knew I needed. 😅
Amazing!! Stand alone PC HMD’s r right around the corner!!!!
Hi, is there any chance you can test Elite Dangerours in Vr please?
Elite works fine in VR through the Ally I play it
Half Life Alyx just ran short of RAM maybe set GPU to 5G because system RAM had around 1 GB spare
I didn't expect that. Amazing. Do you think it would work with the Rift S?
Hard to say... virtual desktop seems to remove any driver and displayport problems that could arise from the equation. most likely the rift s would say "incompatible graphics" or something like that.
sick video
Thanks for test

Hye how about steering wheel like g29 ?
Can i use it with air link???
does it run boneworks good
EVERYTHING
Can add from oculus app?
does the ally power the headset so you can play as long as you want?
Air link vs VD?
VD or Steam Link work better atm, Air Link can be a bit of a nightmare connecting and generally more stuttery in games
Change your turning to smooth turn it’s much better.
100 degrees Celsius in a tiny plastic box? 😬
It's fun isn't it?
@@cbutters what is the max temp before shutting down or under clocking?
@@Juidodin I believe it starts throttling at TJMax is at 100C I believe.

Come on valve make a pcvr standalone headset !
This is so stupid and I LOVE IT gotta try this with my steam deck 😁
I wouldn't💀
Your steam deck is finna see kobe if you do that💀☠
Do I need virtual desktop on the quest as well? I’m kinda new to this. Thanks in advance.
Jesus. That's impressive. Time to sell my 4090. 😅
Ok, now i buy a meta quest 2
If you are not driving 2 lens vr goggles then it's not really VR
What vr headset do you think I'm using in this video?
Meta, please put 2 x z1 extreme apus in your meta quest 4. This should make it possible to play proper PC quality games natively. I know it will be expensive but hardcore gamers will always find a way to get enough money to fund their gaming addiction.
Yea, but try to play high end Steam games, see what will happen...
That's exactly what the fuck he's playing...
Steam vr: am i a joke to you??
wouldn't testing this wired be a TON less overhead? You absolutely can do that with the quest 2.
Even the "link" wired USB-C connection relys on encode->decode same as virtual desktop. The difference is that the oculus software will tell you your GPU isn't compatible.
