optimization
21 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeOptimization for this game appears inconsistent, with many users experiencing significant stuttering during VR video playback even on high-end hardware like RTX 3080 and 2080 Super. Performance tends to improve with fast NVMe drives and capable systems, but stuttering remains a common issue, especially under demanding VR video conditions. Some report smooth playback on less advanced setups, suggesting optimization may vary widely based on individual hardware and configurations.
“I recommend you use an NVMe drive for the best performance possible.”
“Mechanical drives may cause stutters and even some SSD drives can cause performance issues.”
“For those having performance issues playing videos, most likely your hardware cannot cope with VR and the video playback at the same time. I am running VR with the resolution set to 110%, Blu-ray 2D/3D movie with the file on a NAS on a gigabit network and have zero performance issues using GTX 780 Ti, i5-8600K, and 32GB of DDR4 RAM.”
“Recently getting lots of stuttering even when playing VR videos from the local fast NVMe SSD disk.”
“Horrific stuttering since running this on an RTX 3080, seemed to run fine on my old 1080ti.”
“I'm running a Valve Index on a 2080 Super, yet I get stuttering on potato quality 720p and lower VR video files in the same way as the super high resolution ones.”
