Is it possible to get ALVR to virtual desktop quality? (lemmy.ml)

I have been trying to get rid of my windows dualboot and fully jump in board to linux.

However after playing vr on both opersting systems, I have had the clearest and jaw dropping visuals on windows with virtual desktop vs arch with ALVR. That isn't to say my alvr experience is bad by any means! Performance wise it is identical. It's just that there is a noticeable difference in visual quality. The main game I have been testing is alyx, the texture wuality seems lower no matter the setting (I tried changing it on windows to the same quality and it didn't seem to be game settings.)

Is it possible to change alvr seytings so that the difference between it and virtual desktop are unnoticeable, or is ALVR just not there yet and only time will tell? Have any of you gotten it there?

Specs:

Nvidia 3070 Ryzen 7 3700x 48gb of ddr4 3200 ram

Quest 3 is the main headset I use

Thank you for your time!

WiVRn works well, I feel like the video quality is better with it.
