I received the card from Amazon (the 5 port+20 pin version) and can confirm it passes the test. Also make sure it's one of the powered cards (comes with internal power cables).

NOTE: I think any of the versions of this card should work as they all use the Fresco controller, but obviously the 2 port one isn't going to give you enough to run the Rift plus the Touch. If you do have this issue, you can buy a PCI-E add-on card. Even though the port may be labeled as USB 3.0, and be functional, it may not work with the Rift. The Compatibility Tool will show you a warning if this controller is known to cause problems. So, there are a variety of different USB controllers, and not all of them are fully compatible with the Rift. At first I thought this was meaningless since the tool is doing some other silly things (like saying some CPUs aren't compatible even though they're faster than the recommended spec) but then I saw this post on the oculus forums: Apparently the ones on my motherboard (Asmedia controller) are known to cause problems.
Sometimes you need to go through the process more than once for the computer to clear its cache, but once you do, you should be good to go.If you're meeting the recommended specs you may not have bothered to run the compatibility tool, but you should still run it to check your USB 3.0 ports.

Sometimes the driver exists in your operating system at other times it needs to be downloaded from the Internet or installed from a CD. What’s good about the USB devices however is that once you plug them in, they should immediately try to initialize and load the driver for the device. I don’t have USB 3.0 myself but I understand that it’s found on the newer notebooks and is backward compatible with USB 2.0. In that case you would need the USB 3.0 host controller driver. September 11, - The new standard now is USB 3.0 supposedly it’s very fast from what I understand.

They will usually have pages where you can download the drivers that you need. If you need an official driver, go to the Microsoft website – assuming it’s a Microsoft driver – or go to the original manufacturer’s website. Yes, they may work, but these are not official sites, so unwittingly you may find yourself downloading a virus as well. Personally, I wouldn’t recommend that you download drivers from these sites. There are some websites I’ve found online that purport to offer drivers for Windows XP (or other flavors of Windows I suppose). September 11, - I’d like to offer up a word of caution about drivers since you mentioned downloading them from the Internet.
