Hello

Thanks

You don't need OpenXR Toolkit to run QuadViews but you can still use it for things like adjust contrast, brightness, saturation etc.

On a similar note, what are the advantages, if any, of using quad views on the Quest 3 over the fixed foveated rendering built into the OpenXR toolkit?

With Quadviews you have more control over your settings. You can tweak supersample the foveated area for example. QuadViews does add load to your CPU though.
OpenXR Toolkit's FFR doesn't give you the option to supersample the central point and limited options for resolutions in the outer area but it's quick and simple. 

I used OXRTK FFR when I was using my G2 and found it helpful.

QVFR is superior to the DFR in OXRTK. If you have enough CPU capacity QVFR can increase performance significantly more than DFR in OXRTK.
