So basically I'm trying to do oculus link on a GT 1030 now hear me out, since the last post I did on this my friend got a wmr headset and tested it on my machine and minecraft vr worked flawlessly with optifine Installed and some graphics settings lowered so I know it is possible and heavily playable so no replies saying don't bother. yada yada yada My graphics card ain't on the list for oculus link so I can't play using my quest and I have no money to upgrade to a 970 due to this fucking pandemic, any recommendations on how I can spoof my hardware to make the oculus software think I got a 2080 or something lol.

I mean it's possible, China does it all the time. I think you'd have to make and flash your own BIOS to it which probably isn't worth doing unless it's as simple as finding a BIOS online, changing one variable in it with a text editor or something, and then flashing it.

wont that cause some headache due to fps skips?

 

though i think something like steam vr will do. i saw someone use integrated graphics on vr (See lowspecgamer on youtube) so i dont think you need to make it think you have a 2080ti.

Im with the mentaility of "IF IM NOT SURE IF ITS ENOUGH COOLING, GO OVERKILL"

Oculus Link does need to do video encoding as well, so that could add another bottleneck vs a proper headset.

If you mess up moding the bios on your card or flashing it, you will have a brick and be in worst shape. I say neigh to this.

I look at lowspecgamer as a role model for this sorta stuff, I saw how well he managed to get skyrym vr to work on a 1050 which was main inspiration to get a quest in the first place seeing as oculus link was announced around the same time I watched it. also there was no fps skips or frame drops when I tried it on the wmr headset, infact it ran over 100 fps which I didnt expect 😅
