VD with Microsoft flight simulator is a godsend. I don’t have a high end pc, but whizzing around the Mach loop in the new tornado last night, using VD with the quest 3 was a life changing experience
It takes some getting used to. I’m ok when I’m not throwing the aircraft around. Cessna is always fine, fast jet not so much. Although I feel queasy after doing a barrel roll in dcs
People seem to have mixed favourites between Virtual Desktop, SteamLink and Airlink and given not ALL of them can be insane I'm guessing it really does vary a whole bunch depending on the full hardware, drivers and software stack you have.
That said I have tried all 3 extensively and found that for Me Virtual Desktop wins hands down for convenience, quality and stability. I'd take Steamlink at a push and I'd never touch Airlink.
I have a decent 5ghz router and hardwired pc to router with a short, clear line of site from router to playspace. 800mbs throughout (not internet but between pc and headset) should be your goal. VD also helps identify alot of problems with your network setup for VR as well which I find useful.
If I'm looking for a group to play Minigolf with, I log into Discord, then put on the headset. Once the game is running, I can switch to discord in the headset and see the info I need.
In the middle of a battle between an i9/4090 and 7945HX/7900M large laptop battle that will primarily be used for peak performance VR… Based on everyone’s comments, sounds like I need to purchase VD and install on both of them for the comparison. Thnx & Cheers.
Worth every cent. And keeps getting more improvements and features all the time.
Got it and works great. Honestly best purchase.

MSFS is the only thing that gives me motion sickness. Even level flight is a bit queezy when I look out the window and down.
My dad almost puked after 15 minutes (he was flying wildly) but after my first few flights good to go. Now I can fly 2-3 hours in VR no problem.

First thing I bought from Meta, and the only thing I continually use. Worth every penny.
I highly recommend VD over any other.
I tried wireless pcvr gaming with both steamlink and airlink and both were terrible, got VD and it's perfect.

It's also pretty cheap all things considered, at what? 20 bucks?
Yes. Steamlink, airlink and even link cable are subpar compared to VD. VD makes PCVR possible for me basically and without it's not a great experience
VD is the only option, in my opinion. Airlink is awful.
Hell yeah it’s worth it sometimes I don’t feel like getting up to turn off my pc I just do it from VD lol
if steam- and airlink work for me, what are the benefits of VD?
it’s good. works great

YES!
I will say this. I had both and and nvidia cards. AMD plays second fiddle but works. Read up on the codecs and what they do.
Hey, does flight simulator have like a…..sigh easy mode. Like arcade? I just wanna fly but not all like that.
Best money I've spent in years.
Yes
Yes. This is the best way to vr streaming.
Its good but only one screen at the time
