After purchasing a novel RTX 5090 USD card, some VR users discover that their Varjo headphone sets do not work with their platform. For the moment, the answer seems to connect the headphone set using a Thunderbolt cable, setting the Varjo base (Varjo software) to “very low” or waiting for drivers – but none of these options is perfect.
As originally published in Forum nvidia In the thread entitled “Please make Varjo VR headphones work with RTX 5090!”, One user informs that after almost two months of attempts they could not get their Aero Varjo on their RTX 5090. In response, Nvidia staff asked them to complete the driver’s return form and capture the emergency DMP file.
In our Varjo Aero review, we liked the VR headphone display, we found it very convenient to wear, and we praised its price, although the base station required, lack of enabled controllers and ponderous character weighed It’s a bit. At that time, there was no support for AMD GPU, and now you can add reports to the stack about the lack of support for RTX 5090.
We don’t have equipment, so we can’t verify this first -hand problem. However, digging a little deeper shows many reports about the same problem in Varjo Discord server.
So far a handful of solutions has appeared, and perhaps the most imaginative is one user connecting the headset to Thunderbolt 4 expansion card Without using the Varjo link field. It seems that it effectively downloads the exit from the port and redirects it to the VR headphone set, which means that users lose access to the monitor during the VR game.
Another user claims that setting the Varjo base to “very low” solved the problem, although others have achieved less success in this approach. It seems that DIY is the only way users managed to achieve any success from configuring the Varjo VR headphone set with a novel shiny RTX 5090.
In the original thread of the nvidia forum, the user sepian78 claims: “Varjo support informed me that he is waiting for the controller to slow down these problems, but at the moment it is beyond their control and can only be fixed by NVIDIA.”
We got to Nvidia to comment on this story and when we can expect a potential solution.
This story is similar to the fact that many novel owners of the RTX 50 series have met with black screen problems after they are launched. Before VBIO and corrections to the card drivers were released, our Dave said that you can often bypass it by setting the monitor to 60 Hz, although this was not a satisfactory long -term bypass for a high -class graphic graphic designer and did not work for every application. Dave found these problems with the black screen when using HDMI, so the RTX 50 display errors are not only a display of the display port.
Aero Varjo, which seems to be the only reported VR headset that I could find with this problem, He was interrupted At the beginning of 2024, this special problem does not seem to affect other VR headphone sets.
