was it running fine before? a 1660 super is kinda low for vr imo, especially with the higher refresh rate headsets, which model headset are you using?

also, just curious, why a 1200w psu??

make sure to quote, that way people know you replied. i would first start by lowering all settings to lowest, see if that helps. have you tried any games on the oculus app, and if so, are they laggy as well? is it a fresh install of windows since adding the new gpu? if not, may be worth trying ddu'ing the drivers for the gpu and reinstalling. also, might want to try reinstalling steam, or at least steam vr.

i don't know that that would fix the issue, it's also nice to be able to play wireless* if you are playing a game that runs on the quest, your call though.

it might be becuase im on the 3rd floor of my house and my router is on the 1st floor and it may be becuase i switched from amd to nvidia today and maybe forgot to properly uninstal the old amd drivers or it could be that ive got to much stuff running in the backround
