Many VR issues I found

First of all my hardware: 

* I7 14700F

* RTX 4080 SUPER

* 32 GB RAM 

* Quest 3 headset

* Link cable 2.2 - 2.5 Gb in speed test

The game in VR mode use only 47% - 55% of GPU. No matter what settings I use ( High or Ultra etc. In Oculus App everything is max out ). 

Constant 45 FPS is a bit more smooth than 60 - 80 FPS which goes up and down all the time. But indeed 45 fps is too low and absolutely can't compare Dirt 2.0 ( I know that engine is different but still ). 

Unfortunately VR mode has a unplayable visuals / graphics without OpenXR toolkit and even with OpenXR Toolkit this game graphics and performance are grap ☹️ 

Game crashes all the time when you use OpenXR Toolkit. Only way to use it is add           -force -dx11 command but seems that it causes performance drops a bit. I'm not a numbers guy and I don't care how much FPS I get but smoothness is as important as graphics. That's why I bought high end PC but unfortunately it's useless until you guys fix all this grap. 

My Quest 3 headroom is -80 up to -150% and GPU headroom is +50% 

For example in Dirt 2.0 I get constant 90 FPS butter smooth VR experience and Quest 3 headroom is + 20 up to + 60% at the same high settings. 

Stages are so different visual quality and performance. Can't play monte carlo with same settings than Portugal etc. 

I really don't think that this game ever will offer a good VR experience to us but I still really really hope that so much because I'm huge rally fan and bought high end simulator and PC for this game ☹️ 

I have been tested few sim racing games now and unfortunately EA SPORTS WRC have a worst VR ☹️  There is so much potential and I really hope that Codemasters optimize this game in final mode. 

Can't wait next patch. Actually I don't get it how this VR Beta even passed trough the test for release ☹️

    @Misviga I agree. I just purchased the game. I have a new PC, I-9 14900, RTX 4090, 64gb, 2TB SSD. I spent over an hour trying to get the game to look good. I’m running a quest 3 90hz auto resolution. It runs smooth without stutter in highest Ultra graphics settings but still looks horrible. I’ve messed with everything. It’s either too much antialiasing or too soft on the display. I think I’ve tried just about every settings. I’m going to request a refund through steam. I bought this to play only in VR.

    Me too. Latest 1.9 update make a huge impact on VR performance. Before update i got stable 80fps but after update the game stuttering below 60fps makes the game unplayable. I guess the anti cheat take a lot of resources impact VR performance.
