Hi,
I've got an Oculus Quest which is an awesome bit of kit. But am looking to enhance it by making user of the link cable to attach to my PC. My PC is an i7-4770k with 24GB RAM but definitely need to update gpu and was considering a 1070.. Does anyone have experience with this cpu and a 1070? My main intention is to use this for simulation games such as Project Cars 2. But also interested in how it would perform with more modern games too.
Any advice appreciated.
Many Thanks
Richard

For Link better to have latest generation of Nvidia gpu, at least 2060 since it has better video encoder and image quality when streaming will be better.

Pretty old cpu (and maybe old/slow ddr3 ram as well?) but with a gtx1070 (what is your current gpu?) it should handle most modern VR games/sims, albeit with lower graphics settings on some of them imho. If you have sufficient cooling you may be able to overclock your cpu to improve its performance.
Quest Link generally works better with proper usb3 cables than the supplied usb2 charge cable imho. I have a Quest with the Oculus Official Link cable and this works much better than the supplied usb2 cable (handles higher Link quality settings, less stuttering, and lower latency).
I also us my Quest wireless with Virtual desktop and this works well for most (but not all. esp sims) VR games. A bit more latency than Link but generally not too bad. Wireless w/VD works best with a good gpu so if you have a good internet setup (Ethernet cable from your router to PC) and strong (+800mbps) 5Ghz wifi.your gtx1070 should work pretty well.
