*Update 1: I was wrong about SteamVR video unable to change while in-game. Apparently this is different for every game
*Update 2: After testing a little more, I can say that SteamLink's compression is actually pretty darn good. Not as good as Airlink 850mbps, but still pretty darn good

First section is a technical comparison. I tried my best to match all the resolutions, that was the closest could get so far among all 3. But as we can clearly see, SteamLink is struggling to keep up the FPS.

The second section is my first impressions and thoughts. Something I didn't mention in there is the Foveated, it's some of the wildest Foveated encoding I've seen. The edges are so blur, thank goodness you can (mostly) control it in the settings.

First game: Light Brigade
Second game: Kayak VR Mirage

Specs: Quest 3, 4090 i9 13900
Router: TP-Link AXE75, 5ghz mode
All were tested in H265, 200mbps.
