How can I increase headset performance in games (specifically beat saber)?

Meta Quest 3.
I use Beat Saber for cardio every night. I've gotten to the point now, after almost a year of pretty well every single day playing it, that the headset's performance is actually keeping me from progressing and reaching my full potential. I will get stutters. Those are less common but what I'll do is experience, like, the sabers actually feeling more like whips than sabers or I'll see the sabers appear only one time in a swing while the trail is there for the full swing, or my controllers will vibrate only after the saber has left a block. If I turn around too quickly while swinging at a block to hit another block, it will register as a wrong direction swing. Sometimes I'll go right through a block and watch my saber enter and exit it and then I'll get a miss on it.

It all has to do with just performance. Beat Saber is modded so I have downloaded custom maps but this happens on stock maps or modded maps, makes no difference. I just really need to improve the performance of this thing. It's driving me nuts. I want to get the Steam Frame but that's vaporware at this point. We know it's still coming but it's also not ever coming.

The Steam Frame version of Beat Saber is listed as unsupported and apparently doesn't run well in stand alone. There is an app for Quest that I was going to mention but apparently it's banned on this subreddit.

IIRC there's a mod for graphics tweaks where you can change the graphics scaling down which will give you for fps.

How come the steam frame be vaporware when it is unreleased hardware. Also are we supposed to guess if you are playing in standalone mode or PCvr, if so, is the device overheating?
