Apple M1 Ultra - Hackdot

Uh, Varjo Aero is a clear outlier in terms of resolution and definitely does not represent the current typical VR headset experience (which in early 2022 would be around Quest 2 or Valve Index). If you went out of your way to get an expensive niche high-end headset, it struggling on a 3090 is your problem, not HL:A's.

I'd say that its just a couple of years ahead of the mainstream curve. My thinking is that Apple probably wants to make a very high resolution VR headset (similar or close to Varjo Aero), and it seems that with their new chips, they might be able to pull it off.

How is the foveated rendering? Is it noticeable?

There's no software support for foveated rendering in any games yet, afaik. It works in desktop mode and it's fast enough to be unnoticeable.
