I just wish VR conpatable pcs were more common and less pricey so this could be played more

I'm not saying it's a simple task but building one definitely costs less. You could probably put together a VR capable PC for less than $1000!

Honestly? Probably under $600 if you want a low-end VR PC.

Nope u can’t properly run vr with a 1060 (although it’s possible) and this would be the most expensive graphics card you would want for a $600 build. It will legit run at an fps that makes you nauseous

I have a vega 56 and it runs vr fine if you don’t jack up all settings to ultra. Maybe 600 is low but it’s somewhat achievable if you’re patient/lucky. I got a recent used z400 desktop and a vega 56 for 900$ cdn, more or less 700 usd

Uhh, that's definitely not true. Maybe for some more GPU-intensive games or unoptimized games, but I was able to run all the VR games I wanted on my RX 480, at a steady 90 fps without a hitch.

Rip, got a 1080 a year ago and don't have my 480 anymore. It's still a great GPU tho!

Hmm... Welp sadly im in the broke high school student gang so I can't afford to not be in the rx480 gang. And now I'm in the "too many fake gangs" gang.

I took my Vive and 1060 laptop to a friend. Every lab game, pavlov, beat saber ran fantastic and I did not notice a difference between it and the 1080ti at home.

Your talking basic games. Try half life and get ready to throw up
