Your Oculus Rift S uses USB 3.0 and DisplayPort connectors to connect to your computer. We've listed the different options that you can and can't use to connect your Rift S below:
Supported connections
- DisplayPort connection: You can connect your Oculus Rift S to any DisplayPort port that is directly connected to a discrete GPU.
- Mini DisplayPort connection: You can connect your Oculus Rift S to any Mini DisplayPort port that is directly connected to a discrete GPU using the mDP → DP adapter included with your Rift S.
Unsupported connections
- Mini DisplayPort connection with third party adapter: Currently, the only mDP → DP adapter certified to work is the one provided with your Rift S. If other adapters are used, we cannot guarantee functionality or performance.
- HDMI connection with third party adapter: Currently, there are no known adapters that will work from HDMI → DP.
- USB Type-C connection with third party adapter: Currently, we cannot make any recommendations for USB-C → DP. If this changes, we’ll update this article to include any supported adapters.
- Ensure any DisplayPort used to connect Rift S is directly connected to a discrete GPU for basic functionality.
