My CPU i7-7820X has 28 PCIe lines. I tried to connect the wireless card to the processor lines and to the chipset lines. No difference or difference is noticeable.
-
Thanks for the hint about using embedded graphics when broadcasting games! I did not know.
About the number of CPU PCI lines in Intel processors. Here are a few processors with 44 lines.
Now we see that there are two types of PC configurations to VIVE Wireless VR.
1. Weak PC. Pixelation. It is impossible to play.
2. Medium PC. No pixelation. It is possible to play. Not all games have 90 fps.Is there a configuration in which the Vive Wireless Adapter will work fine and show 90 FPS in all games?
-
Two video with Subnautica on my configuration, SS 100%
(Sorry for Video Quality, recorded in a hurry)
FPS is not always 90, but I can play. No Pixelization.
Here is the new computer configuration:
CPU i7-7820X
ASUS ROG STRIX X299-XE GAMING
RAM 32Gb Quad Channel
MSI 1080Ti
HTC Vive
Windows10 64bit

I think for wireless VR the number of PCI lines supported by the CPU matters. K series offers only 16 lines that will be occupied by the GPU.
-
Try install your WiGig card into PCIEX4_1
-
Guys, I do not understand why everyone use a CPU with a K index for a gaming computer? Why do you need graphics integrated into the CPU?
in a few hours (need to pick up the Steam controller from the child :) ) I will test my configuration with the Subnautica. Fallout4VR and SkyrimVR I have already tested, see above.
-
I think the guys from VIVE were very modest in describing the minimum requirements for a wireless adapter :) A computer for VR should have sufficiently high characteristics. Couldn't they say, “hey guys, we released a cool product, but you still have to improve your processors” :)
-
But how does the system behave when connecting the helmet with a wire? What processor load and what processes on the reference super-sampling value are 100%? you need to understand the difference in the load on the processor between the wired and wireless connection
-
Try starting with setting both supersampling values to 100%. And see the CPU load together in fpsVR and windows task manager (they show different values). Gradually increase the global resolution setting in steps of 10%. The algorithm for automatic set of supersampling by 200%, depending on the video card model, is unknown to us. Start with 100% and increase until the frame rendering time is less than 9 ms.

No Telegram, only Apple iMessage (Apple ID saint666ipad@gmail.com)

Glad I could help :) So the CPU i5 7600K is also suitable for a wireless adapter!
-
On your advice I insert Wigig card to PCIEX16/X8_2 and PCIEX8/X1_3. Nothing changes. Better not, worse not, absolutely the same works. Left in the bottom slot PCIEX8/X1_3, since it has the desired mode of operation x1.
-
I again got to the computer and continue to test Wireless adapter.
The following four videos show my CPU load with Wireless adapter, SteamVR and two Games using various settings SuperSampling.
(~90FPS)(~45FPS)(~90FPS)(~90FPS)Image in Helmet is Fine when SS set to 200%. No pixelization. No jumps, everything is smooth. Overall, with my new hardware configuration, the wireless adapter works satisfactorily. No CPU overload. Nearby (~ 1 meter) with the antenna of the Wireless Adapter installed Apple WiFi router 2.4/5GHz. The router does not interfere with the operation of the adapter.
Here is the new computer configuration:
CPU i7-7820X
ASUS ROG STRIX X299-XE GAMING
RAM 32Gb Quad Channel
MSI 1080Ti
HTC Vive
Windows10 64bit
If you have questions - happy to be responsible as possible. I wish the adapter didn't cause you any problems.
I do not work in VIVE and it is not advertising :)
-
Wireless Card works well in PCIEX4 slot. The image in the helmet is the same as with a wired connection. Problem only with Fallout4VR. And the problems are not permanent, then they are, they are not. While I understand what's the matter. I will try to rearrange the card later, thanks.
-
The processor loads I indicated are not entirely correct. Something happened in the operating system ... Here is the normal CPU usage started by Fallout4
and without running the game (only SteamVR Home)
-
Yes indeed, I noticed, at first I did not notice.
Today during the day I noticed the inconsistent work of Fallout 4VR. Now I turned off the computer, turned it on in five minutes, launched Fallout 4 and everything is fine, 90 FPS, there are no reprojected frames even at SS 200%. I turn off the Fallout, turn it on again and now 45 FPS and frames fell down ... Skyrim and other games work steadily at 90 FPS. Tomorrow I will understand, but this is a software problem. Later I will record a video from the helmet of Skyrim, anyway, my battery has sat down :)Most importantly, with the new hardware configuration, I lost image pixelation. Image quality is the same as with wired connection. There are some differences, tomorrow I will describe them in more detail and try to take a video.
-
My CPU load step by step:
1. Simply Windows CPU 1-2%
2. Run VIVE Wireless and connect HTC helmet CPU 4%
3. After run SteamVR CPU 68% (simply stay in Steam VR Home)
4. Close VIVE Wireless App and disconnect helmet CPU 33% (running SteamVR without VR compositor)
-
So here are some details about the working VIVE Wireless adapter.
This is PCIe slots on my Motherboard
BIOS Settings
Speed of PCIEX4 slot in BIOS set to 3.0, but WiDig card options in Windows is displayed as 2.0
Most likely the Wireless card requires only 2.0 port speed.
All Settings on SteamVR set to Default, SS Auto 200%, Image Smoothing On...
Tried to record two videos of the helmet with a wireless adapter.
Just put GoPro inside the helmet.Oh, my fpsVR interface language is set to Russian, I do not think this is a problem :)
-
Sorry, we have in Siberia already midnight. Tomorrow I'll post the details.
-
I think, Vive wireless adapter need CPU lane. I insert wireless WiDig card in PCIEX4 slot, that use free CPU Lane. This is just a version, however it works
-
I see specification of my CPU in Intel web site (CPU has 28 lane)
My Chipset
https://ark.intel.com/products/122941/Intel-X299-Chipset
My motherboard:
https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/ROG-STRIX-X299-XE-GAMING/specifications/
Find in specifications “PCI Express Lane”

My Wireless Adapter worked!
After buying a wireless adapter on my old system, I also had problems.
Here is my old PC configuration:
Intel I7-920
Gigabyte EX58-UD3R
RAM 12Gb
MSI 1080Ti
HTC Vive
Windows10 64bit
When connecting the HTC VIVE with a wire everything was fine, despite the rather very old processor. The wireless adapter worked disgustingly, like everyone here.
Here is the new computer configuration:
CPU i7-7820X
ASUS ROG STRIX X299-XE GAMING
RAM 32Gb Quad Channel
MSI 1080Ti
HTC Vive
Windows10 64bit
The wireless adapter works great! There are no problems. None settings SteamVR not changed. Supersampling set to 200%. Skyrim and Fallout4 work perfectly at maximum settings!
Pay attention to the characteristics of your system, as Max # of PCI Express Lanes.
My new processor has 28 lines. I think the problem is this. If the processor and chipset support only 16 lines, then all of them are occupied by the video card, and there are no lines left on the wireless adapter.
This is only a guess. Check the characteristics of your CPU and Chipset, Max # of PCI Express Lanes
Choppy Preformance with Wirless Adapter
in VIVE & VIVE Pro

If you are not ready to replace the motherboard and processor, return the wireless adapter and continue to use the wires.
I have achieved good wireless performance on my configuration:
CPU i7-7820X
ASUS ROG STRIX X299-XE GAMING
Samsung SSD M2 970 Pro 512Gb
RAM 32Gb Quad Channel
MSI 1080Ti
HTC Vive
Windows10 64bit
