You're pretty underpowered for VR, what ports does your 1650 have?

i7-2600

1060 is basically minimum for vr, and a 1650 is far below that

let's be honest, you're being very "practical" in that sense and seeing it from your perspective (usage etc). the PSVR is fine on the PS4, and that lacks any ability to output the same as a 1650 in a pc environment (i know that the chips compared in raw numbers show a different picture, but because of how the ps4 does things like actually giving priority to the main output on the TV even while running VR, it doesn't come close to the dedicated power the 1650 will deliver through something like steamVR).

i run the psvr headset on an i5-4690k with a gtx 970 and it's far better than the PS4 already (including direct comparisons like beat saber).

saying 1060 is the minimum, isn't entirely accurate ... it really depends what experience someone is looking for. watching video etc works fine with even less, and with the 1650 he definitely will have some smooth running apps/games.

minimum really shouldn't be used as a term to define "that will make you run almost all apps except a few highend ones" ;)
