VR Support for Oculus

[CosmicBanana1934]

Hello Intel Dev Team,

As many of you have already noticed, there is a growing community that warmly accepted the endeavour of acquiring a first-gen product, namely your first attempt at consumer grade GPUs. As performant as it may be in standard flatscreen gaming, where performance has been more than acceptable and even excellent at times, it falls flat when VR is involved. It appears that LTT had been given access to some closed alpha drivers to get his setup working with limited functionality on VR, yet it has more than 8 months since that experience, and we have been given no additional information whatsoever regarding these drivers for the public drivers. I have been an early adopter for months and have been pleased with the experience in flatscreen gaming, however I do expect a company as large as Intel would have some more information regarding the development in this area after nearly a year of optimisations. Is there any possibility to have VR support for Intel ARC cards, or do I have to switch GPUs every time I wish to to VR compatible activities?

Best regards,

Cosmic
