Meta Quest Link is a Windows program for bridging the gap between the desktop computer and virtual reality headsets from Meta. Users are able to play resource intensive VR games by processing all graphics on the PC instead of the internal device graphics chip. There is an online store with a large selection of immersive experiences and productivity tools as well.

Connection

It is possible to communicate with the headset via a USB C interface, ensuring stable and quick data transfers. However, you can eliminate cumbersome cables by connecting to the computer over the local wireless network. This is particularly beneficial when a greater degree of freedom is required to enjoy vast virtual environments.

Please note that a powerful GPU is necessary for processing complex 3D scenes. Moreover, VR headset displays have a high refresh rate to ensure full immersion, which places even more emphasis on the graphics card speed.

Visual settings

Like in Mixed Reality Portal, users are able to adjust the overall video streaming quality by changing the desired bitrate and resolution. It is easy to find a balance between performance and image clarity, depending on current hardware power. The screen refresh rate is customizable as well.
