Stop Using Your Link Cable Wrong... (Oculus Quest 2)

In Todays video I am exposing how various Oculus Quest & Quest 2 accessories are deceptive in their reviews on Amazon. I also showcase some very important tips for new Link Cable users to help get the most out of your cable by increasing resolution, refresh rate, bitrate, and how to disable the USB power settings that are blocking maximum power.

My channel is about VR Content (obviously lol) I've covered many topics on this channel in the past such as PC Building, PC Gaming Knowledge, Gaming News. That can be CPM rates, Industry knowledge, Business knowledge, how to edit, how to build a gaming PC, budget or not. But VR is cooler so I'm probably gonna keep doing that.
I'm like the monkey you send into space for tests. I just come back with the results and give them to you for FREE.

USB power settings: "how do people not know about this?" Also USB power settings: advanced settings > advanced settings > even more advanced settings
-
i bought some $20 aftermarket link cable and wasn’t expecting the best performance, until it ran at 3gbs per second

To everyone on windows 11, 5:06 hit the windows button, type control panel, click on system and security, click power options, and finally hit the edit plan settings button. After that, you should be where gethip says to go to. Hope this helps!!

honestly i have over 1000 hours of vr playtime over a handful of years and i clicked on this video not thinking id learn anything but you did actually show me a decent amount i didnt ever know
-
YOU COULD NOT BE MORE RIGHT!!!! Oculus needs to get off their asses and make videos on these subjects. Thank you for doing their job for them!!!
-
Damn been using the oculus link for a while and never played with these settings! Thanks for the info this is gonna make pc vr gaming so much smoother!
-
I've been fighting with all these settings for days. It really makes the Quest2 feel like a beta product when you have settings scattered between the Oculus Debug too, The Oculus App (on your phone), the Oculus app(PC), the Oculus App(In VR), SteamVR, the App's VR Settings, Link Cable Settings. Will look into the Kiwi cable. I've noticed that they seem to have a good rep across the board. :)

My pc already had the USB power settings ready to go. It was actually set to high performance. But the debug tool helped so much. It went from looking pretty decent to looking amazing
-
Absolutely brilliant! I had no idea how much I was missing out on maximising performance of my headset! Thank you
-
Great video. I've only just bought the headset and I became aware of some of these settings by accident, but your video covers things concisely and highlights the key settings. Thumbs up.
-
Great video! Thank you! The only thing that nobody seems to take into account when talking about the headstrap is laying down and watching a video is one of the greatest things and the stock headstrap is so good for this. All the replacement ones have a huge-ass adjustment knob on the back which would massively dig into the back of your head while laying down. Trust me, once you've experienced laying back and watching a video. Sitting up will never be as appealing. lol

Thank you so much for this video! You just saved me from purchasing an official Oculus link cable, thinking none of the third party ones would cut it. I was able to cancel my order for one, and for the same price as an official link cable, I got a Kiwi link cable, a replacement head strap, and replacement grips. I am much more satisfied with my purchase now, and am sure this will enhance my VR experience much more than just the link cable.

That palpatine clip flippin killed me duuuudeeee 😂🤣😂🤣
-
Great video, watched many on this topic so far and still learned something new!
-
I’m planning on buying a quest 2 within the week, and I can’t think you enough for this video.
-
That USB tip was the best thing ive seen all year. I was completely unaware to that. I kept wondering my my camera kept cutting out mid streams. thanks a bunch!
-
One of the most useful oculus quest 2 videos out there! My experience is 600% better. Thanks man. Keep up the good work!
-
Thank you for the awesome vids! I was just finishing my setup and I wanted to find this specific video and I hadn't subbed you yet- now I have because you're the best for quest 2 stuff- keep it coming!
-
Thanks so much for making this video, i was looking for ways to fix these issues for months, but you just answered all of my question in a 10 minutes video!
-
It would be better if you actually explain why the usb power management setting should be disabled and what it actually does to your PC...
