Disable "Your computer doesn't meet Rift's recommended specifications" message in Oculus Home?

Firf · March 2017

Does that also apply to my GTX1070? Does your response mean it will even if overclocked i7 is not on the Oculus reference table (whatever uses flag need for notice)? And that, based on this response, Ocukus is aware of concern overall? Is there a plan to allow users to acknowledge and remove the message in general, particularly in light of the articles and write-ups about the purpose of Asynchronous Time Warp?

Seriously, it's been a year and this thing still annoys. How difficult it is to allow for example disabling it after 7 days from installation or 2h of use or something like this. Simple tick box in Oculus home preferences for users freedom. I understand it from PR point of view you wanted it in the demo kits etc. However for a private user should be customisable.

I'm running on a Xeon that is well qualified and plays VR perfectly well.... but I get the same error.

I imagine they just have a list of CPU IDs and Xeon's aren't on it.

elboffor · March 2017

Im upgrading, this message is tue primary reason

Percy1983 · March 2017

I just had to check the message is still there, I had gone blind to it.

Its still there and I still don't care.

Lawyers and Marketers nagging us to re-buy something because they're not satisfied that we're satisfied.

The designer of the benchmark software was being idiotic.

I bought the Touch the other day to go with the Rift. i7 2600k, 16gb ram, 1080GTX are my specs.

Nothing runs lower than 89.99 fps so far.

Oculus are putting potential buyers off because they may have a similar cpu setup and merely need an up to date card and possibly USB ports. So card plus oculus is what, £1000 ish? If you listen to Oculus, forget that, try £2000+.

Hope the devs look through this thread someday and rewrite the bench mark tool to work directly on people's systems and NOT via static cpu lists.

Seeing as i no longer get this message i think it should pop up ingame every 30 seconds to remind people to upgrade

NuttleStuff · May 2017

I agree there should definitely be a toggle. Currently have the i7-3770S, which has plenty of processing power, along with GTX970 & 16gb ram. I'm considering upgrading my graphics card to the 1080 Founders Edition and it's ridiculous that I will still have to look at this misleading warning. It's obviously annoying for enough of us.

Just came across this link:

https://www.reddit.com/r/oculus/comments/4kangn/cpu_minimum_spec_not_met_message_fix/

I haven't tried it yet but it looks promising so I figured i'd share. Now to see if this solves the issue.

Devs, please let us turn this super annoying message off.

danmilla4rilla · August 2017

1+ year after release, and still can't disable message, should be a simple fix, yet oculus still don't care

Citric · August 2017

please fix this its annoy as hell and my pc is definitely up to standard

Alex_AT · August 2017

Just remove this crappy message already. AMD FX8370 / 32G RAM and R290X is more than enough to run safely.

Justos · October 2017

+1 for removing this message. I have an imac with amd pro 580 and an intel 7600k cpu runnning bootcamp that plays everything at a solid 90fps with 3 sensors. Its really illogical to create software knowing you will have to come back and edit it again and again. It should be performance based.

Tamagotchii · October 2017

Its so weird I had a 970 it had not problems, I upgrade to a 1080 and now im constantly getting this message its driving me nuts

Me too, it does not recognize our graphics card, which is a Radeon RX580, which is in their list, but since our HDMI, comes out of thunderbolt 3 Display port, it does not think we have a video card.... Please let us remove the stupid warning....

This has definitely gotten to the point it's more trouble than it's worth to get rid of a little message that does no harm beyond wounding the delicate egos of people who get upset at being told their PC doesn't match a compatibility list.

Delicate egos lol. Such hubris.

No, it's a case of Steam/HTC making Oculus looking amateurish by properly benchmarking systems to assess their VR readiness rather than just checking components against a list, regardless of real-world performance. If Oculus really can't get it together to provide a proper benchmarking tool that's available before purchase then they should nag once that "hardware may not perform adequately" and point to the SteamVR assessment tool for further testing. Repeatedly nagging after purchase/installation serves no purpose whatsoever other than to annoy users and make them wish they'd saved a little harder for a Vive, something from a company that actually understands gamers rather than a product from some subsidiary of a social networking site.

1point21jiggawattz · November 2017

Apparently the Oculus Tray Tool can disable this message for people getting it about their CPU.

karlz28 · November 2017

Too bad nobody from Oculus reads these....I guess I will buy a vive, and dump oculus if they can’t fix this, Our Macs run this VR perfectly, but this screen nag sucks.. It’s too stupid to see our video cards.....

karlz28 · November 2017

I sent a message to support, they said here is a link of other computers to buy. I guess they do not even read the tech questions, when the 2017 Apple iMac has all the hardware required...
I guess facebook is more concerned at selling other computers, than to recognize that new apple machines will run their device with no issues, other than than problem message...

vertexbreakers · December 2017

+1, dual xeon + 1080TI + 64Go Ram and computer does not meet recommendations ??, really ???

karlz28 · December 2017

Guess I will not be a advocate for Oculus as I have been..... I guess I will buy no more software, since my experience may be affected....

karlz28 · December 2017

Here is a good one, Oculus does not think the RX 580 Pro is an accepted graphics card. That is why this message is appearing, go to HTC VIVE site, and it says my 40GB of ram, my 4.5 GHZ I7 processor, and my Video card RX 580 is all checked as "your system will meet the minimum specifications of VIVE" Guess if Oculus can't remove the message, I can remove the Oculus......

Eychimo · January 2018

Agreed, tired of this crap. I bought a Vive. People at Oculus are more interested in you buying a new computer through them then fixing something that does nothing but annoy. I have told and showed every one what a piece of work Oculus is. You have not sold 1 rift from my recommendations. Congrats.

FroggoVG · March 2018

Same situation here. 2018 and still no check box to disable this message. Sent feedback with no response from Oculus. I don't mind seeing this once. I DO mind seeing this until I buy a competing product.

red6ft10 · April 2018

I have the Same message and I am using a Xeon X5670 overclocked to 4.2GHz with a GTX 1060 6GB and 40GB RAM. So stupid that they don't make a fix for this. I have 6 cores and 12 threads!

MAC_MAN86 · April 2018

I complained enough at this. Plus the daft SSE4.2 check is known to still not need to be ran as a prerequisite to the Runtime Installers since 1.3 and there is sufficient proof of XEON QUAD DUO 3GHz running VR perfect enough. If the DebugTool can rid this then so too can Oculus Home. I am aware that they can't include a Disable ASW Switch (bollcks they can't if Debug can then Home can do it!!!")

MAC_MAN86 · October 2018

Almost 2019 already. Is there a hack to turn this off in VR or can devs listen at long last and add a switch?
It's only in DASH as I disable Home2 to run via Homeless Hack but it hid the instructions on the Experiment Menus and so made DASH pointless until I seen the switch for Pull Out Window (should not be labelled Tab).

Nope. Just confirmed this does not turn it off. If anything the latest Oculus software makes the annoying message WORSE by forcing it to be viewable right next to the toolbar at the bottom. Sent a forth support message which will be ignored like the rest. Inexcusable.
