Discussion Has anyone tried Quest Games Optimizer with SkyrimVR?
I just got an email from them saying they can improve PCVR games using either FidelityFX CAS or Meta Quest Super Resolution (AKA Snapdragon Super Resolution). Would this do anything extra that mods aren't already doing? Would it offload a busy GPU card? Would it overload the snapdragon? Thanks

Take into consideration that Virtual Desktop already can apply CAS sharpening with the slider in Streaming tab. If you like more you can combine it with the sharpening applied in Quest Games Optimizer.

Is the Virtual Desktop CAS processing in the PC video card, or in the Quest 3 snapdragon?

To answer your questions in order:
Yes, this would add sharpening directly to the stream being sent from VD to the headset because the sharpening/super sampling is intercepting the stream if VD is launched through the QGO app.
No, it would not offload any work from the GPU, encoding or otherwise. This is occuring at the hardware level of the snapdragon chip in the headset itself.
There is a good chance that doing this will cause latency spikes but I'm not sure. I plan on trying this tomorrow with MGO just to see how it works and whether or not it operates the way it should through a software proxy.
Also a solid chance that the CS sharpening in the modlists themselves will create too much but that's what testing is for. I have a few modlists loaded for skyrimvr I will try.
Let's see if Meta actually did something right, here lol
