This helped but hasn't resolved the issue for me. I set "VR Volumetric" to Low, and I am still getting sudden spikes of slowness, stuttering, low framerate, eventually resulting in a crash and it generally starts with the Kill Cam screen in Fleet battles. I hope that a resolution can be found. The game is great, and I love playing in VR, but it is painful to keep crashing out. I am attaching details in case it helps.
