Why do I keep seeing Timewarp Artifact/Reprojection Artifacting (Black bars) When turning?!

I think virtual desktop is vastly superior to airlink, however, no matter what I do VD is behaving as if I have high latency.
I have both environments AL & VD matched with encoder and bitrate in most of the videos above.
To clear up the most likely concerns, i’m running ethernet>PC>Puppis S1>Headset.

What I’ve tried changing.
Encoders, Bitrates, quest snapdragon processing, auto bitrate etc. Bandwiths, wifi channels, games, No Puppis. FOV Tangent, Meta support (They are way worse then the support in this disc btw) among other niche things. Runtimes etc. Graphics settings.

As seen in the videos, the ones with a VD overlay are VD, and without are Airlink. In the airline video, there is next to no timewarp artifacting/reprojection artifacting except for near the nose (recording from my right eye.). For VD, some videos are left eye and some are right eye, still, the artifacting is much greater. I want to clarify bitrate in airlink is maxed out. Is there something Up? Are your guys experience the same but still choose to use virtual desktop for all the other benefits? If you were able to achieve near the same performance as airlink what did you do?

I also want too reference linus tech tips video where this artifacting is showcased in video and he used both airlink and got this artifacting.

Reference timestamp 7:35-7:55

So it seems that I’m curbing this properly via sufficient Networking, & Pc power (Game decoding?) and the fact airlink is near flawless artifact wise. How do I close this gap on VD?
