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. If this changes, we’ll update this article to include any supported
adapters. Until then, we don't recommend trying to use Rift S with any PC or laptop that does
not have a DisplayPort port or Mini DisplayPort port.
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.
In order to ensure basic functionality, any display port used to connect Rift S needs to be
directly connected to a discrete GPU.
