Yes, the setup looks solid for an Oculus Rift.

Comparing the options, using an active USB 2.0 cable might be more cost-effective unless you need consistent high-speed performance.

You could use a different active USB 2.0 cable for transferring files or connecting peripherals that require a separate connection.

Would it be beneficial to purchase an active USB 3 cable?

USB 3.0 isn't required here. It could lead to problems if your USB controller struggles with the additional data.

If you get a PCIe card with a 3.0 active cable, it might not be worth it depending on your needs. Regarding the rift effect, seeing slight blur or lighter pixels in the center is usually normal and rarely noticeable.

It shouldn't change much. The two sensors using USB 3.0 should already provide fairly precise tracking, and the third on USB 2.0 is just to cover any minor blind spots. I don't really understand what you're talking about with the blurry effect. If it appears in scenes with strong contrast, it might be the sunbeams?

Yes, the god rays are typical for their natural occurrence.

It's the drawback of the Fresnel lenses.

You have multiple USB devices connected via USB 3 and USB 2, plus wireless peripherals. It functions well, but adding a PCIe USB card could help reduce bandwidth usage.

Only if you experience problems such as weak tracking, confusing alerts, or distorted sound.
