Higher game latency with Pico 4 than with Quest 2

I picked up a Pico 4 yesterday to try it against my quest 2. I am running VD with a 3080. It was consistently more laggy than my Quest 2 on the same settings when turning my head. Game latency consistently higher than with the Quest 2. Where I get 72 fps with the Quest I get 60 and a bit of choppyness with the Pico.

Only 72Hz available in VD settings. 72 fps target. 70 Mbps stream. 3070 High setting. VDXR. OXRT unchanged.

I run the Oculus tray tool with the Quest 2 for some settings. Are there any similar tools for the pico that I should be running?

So far I don’t think I’ll be switching. The image was clear, I’ll give it that, but that also meant I could see the individual pixels more clearly as well. Give and take I guess.

I know the Pico 4 has a higher resolution per eye, but as the resolution is set in VD and I use the same as for the Quest 2 the stream that is encoded and displayed in the headset should be the same shouldn’t it? I’m not trying to push more pixels with the same GPU. I just bought the Pico for the lenses.

I have a Pico 4 with a 4080/5800x3d. I run 90fps, locked at 45fps via RivaTuner, VD quality at ultra, sometimes with SSW on, and bitrate at 150Mbps. I use an ethernet to USB adapter. I have almost no noticeable lags, and the frame rate is consistently 45fps, except in high-density areas like LA, where it does fall below at times. I’ve been extremely happy with the performance and graphics quality of this setup. However, it was a LONG road getting the settings and hardware right. I use TIAA in MSFS, with other settings mainly medium to high.

Why do you lockl the FPS? I have approx 40-70.

I have SSW turned on.
