    Surprising if they’re going the wired route. VirtualLink has been said to be a dead standard (Oculus pipes video to the headset even if it’s plugged in) and NVIDIA stopped supporting it. AMD might, I recall a tweet from iVRy stating that if you plug the PSVR2 into your AMD GPU and it boots into cinema mode, it should work normally through any future means. Prior to this an adapter was needed to emulate the special DisplayPort modes to enable VR mode, but now that adapter is no longer required on AMD GPUs (still required for NVIDIA).

    In any case, I’m not complaining. Means I don’t have to shell out hundreds for a Quest anymore.
