    Does anyone know if any of the options in the Nvidia Control Panel should be changed?

    I leave them at default beside the power usage, I have set it to performance.
    But feel free to test different settings. You can see for yourself if it give you better result or not.

    You can do that, but I’d recommend putting the global steamvr supersampling at 180% and launching directly to vr instead. (No difference other than being able to switch between vr and 2D quickly) You can dig back in this thread to find a long post that I made about my VR settings in raceroom, all focused on performance.

    Just took a look but I already have this monitoring off. I only monitoring the FPS so the stuttering in R3E are not caused by MSI Afterburner. At least in my case. Even if I turn off AB I see this stuttering after a few laps...

    Is that only when playing in VR or when playing on monitor, too?

    Any other apps running in background? If yes, close everything which isn‘t really needed for playing raceroom and try again.

    I have an almost empty win10 installation. Nothing in the background beside the needed things.
    It is in VR indeed. Will test some more tomorrow

    kinda embarrassed here. I went to the first post in this thread and tried to set up my new samsung hmd odyssey as per suggested.
    first catch after digging into the steam folder for the rre64 program, right click on it.... I look into the properties and there is no Set Launch Options... Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

    You find the Launch Options in Steam. There go to you Game-Library, search for Raceroom an right-click on the Properties there.
    But with the latest Update, there is no need to set launch options for VR in Raceroom. It is now added as option to steam, so you can directly start is from Steam in VR-Mode.

    hm, but do you have Display-port or DVI as an alternative on your Graphicscard? If yes, you can mount your monitor on that and use HDMI for the Headset...

    Not sure, I do have a 1080 card I bought but never hooked up. I was curious if it would work on the older 980 board. I have a couple projects in front of this to do. Than I'll get back to it, I was hoping it would be plug and play, even if only at low rez...

    As you get.older and the memory becomes less than what it was, you will understand. One of those new nvidia gtx1080 graphics cards I bought it a awhile back, never installed it.
    Might add one of the curved flat things too:):p

    Yesterday I had a weird bug. The placements and respective time intervals of the other drivers at the top of the bar were white and really good to see in VR. Has anyone ever had that? And how can I do it again? :(
