PC System Requirements for tethered headsets

We recommend the following levels of hardware to ensure you have a good experience using Gravity Sketch VR when tethered to a PC. Gravity Sketch also runs on standalone headsets (Quest 2/3/Pro), but the specifications below are specifically for PC tethering.

Quest Link users: You do not need a video output on your PC – only a USB 3.0 port and a dedicated graphics card. You can view Meta’s official requirements here.

Minimum

These are the lowest specifications required to run Gravity Sketch on older VR systems (HTC Vive, Oculus Rift). Performance will be limited with complex scenes.

CPU Intel i5-4590 / AMD Ryzen 5 1500X
GPU NVIDIA GTX 970 / AMD Radeon R9 290 equivalent
RAM 8 GB
Storage SSD with at least 20 GB free
OS Windows 10
I/O 1 × USB port, HDMI 1.3 video output

Recommended

Specifications for a smoother, more reliable experience on most tethered VR headsets (HTC Vive Pro, Oculus Rift-S, Quest 2/3 with Link).

CPU Recent generation Intel i7 / AMD Ryzen 5 or greater
GPU NVIDIA GTX 2060 / AMD Radeon RX 5700 or greater
RAM 16 GB
Storage SSD with at least 50 GB free
OS Windows 10 or 11
I/O 1 × USB 3.0 port, DisplayPort 1.2 or HDMI 2.0

Optimal

High-end specifications recommended for professional use, large projects, and the most stable performance on headsets such as Vive Pro 2, HP Reverb G2, or Quest Pro with Link.

CPU Current generation Intel i7 / AMD Ryzen 7 or greater
GPU NVIDIA RTX 4060 / AMD Radeon RX 7600 or greater
RAM 32 GB
Storage High-speed NVMe SSD with at least 100 GB free
OS Windows 11
I/O Multiple USB 3.0 ports, DisplayPort 1.4 or HDMI 2.1

MacOS Support – VR support on MacOS has been reduced, therefore Gravity Sketch is not available on the MacOS platform for the time being.
