The VR thread. U R Not red(e) PSVR2 is legitimate!

Think even if there are exclusives, there will be ways around it.  
Sounds like OR made a good headset.  
Dat price though.  
What CPU do you have?  

fx 8320e

You should be fine.

and I had to order a usb 3.0 card. There was something wrong with mine according to oculus.

Have you guys run the system to check to see if you compatable?

Yeah, 100%.  

There is something about OR using USB 3.0.
Think it was saying something about 2 or 3 ports even, maybe I'm mistaken.

3 and I have 3 already. But something is different about mine oculus dosent like.

And after buying the CV1, if I plan to keep it I think i'll pass on psvr. Unless i get a few friends that buy one. Then i'll buy one to play with them. But not if it's over 350. I really wasn't planning to spend a small fortune on gaming this year. As I've spent way too much last year building everything up.

What they hell oculus. According to this I surpass you requirements by a good bit.

I'm trying not to buy an i5/i7 and a new MB .

IBT: What's the relationship between Oculus and Sony like?

Luckey: I knew some people at Sony working on VR before I even started my Kickstarter campaign actually, and we brought them in early on to show them what we were working on, to talk about what the minimum standards were for a good VR experience. What does it take to make something that won't make people uncomfortable and won't turn people off of virtual reality?

IBT: Sony appears to be best poised to challenge the Rift with the PlayStation VR, which works with the PlayStation 4.

Luckey: That might be true. I think that there's not many people who already own a PS4 who don't own a gaming PC who are going to go out and make that roughly $1500 all-in investment in the Rift. It really is a separate market. They're bringing virtual reality to a different group of people who I don't think where ever really a part of our market anyway.

It's also worth noting that their headset isn't quite as high-end as ours -- it's still, I think, a good headset -- and the PlayStation 4 is not nearly as powerful as our recommended spec for a PC.

I really wouldn't worry about it.  Sometimes those types of comparisons are difficult, because some CPUs are better at different applications than other CPUs.  
For some, yours will beat the i5, of course others the i5 will likely be much better.  
As long as the games that you have are doing well, I wouldn't worry about.  
CPU wise overall, it beats the recommended i5, by a little bit. With a lot of the new stuff, plus your PC, it should run terrifically.  

Spoiler for Hidden:

<br>But of course, if something were to go wrong, I&#39;d take it off your hands for a discounted price. &nbsp;<img src="https://vizioneck.com/forum/Smileys/alienine/wink.png" alt=";&#41;" title="Wink" class="smiley"><br><br><br>I kid. &nbsp;I kid. &nbsp;<br>It should work no problem, but I had to make the joke. &nbsp; &nbsp;<br>

Expected.  
Also you can hit the little paper button in the top corner before pasting, and you can avoid the gigantic font, or weird font, etc.

F U!!! I like gigantic text!  

I was on my phone while the pc was running my Single GPU test.

Use CTRL + SHIFT + V to avoid the gigantic text

My single card is better than yours.

Tacos, I just wouldn't worry about it.  

My expectation is that, there might be a few games that you can't run, but most of them would be no problem.  

I can understand the recommendation.  
Applications tend to be single threaded, and for VR applications, you'll want to be running pretty high frame rates.  ~90+.
Not all games would need that kind of CPU to run at that frame rate, but I'm sure there are some that would.

Oculus Has Already Sold All of the Rifts It Has Made and Will Make Until March - VRFocus


I'm doubting the number is substantial, but that's very exciting that it's apparently selling much better than they expected.  

[the-pi-guy]

Apparently about 100 ORs are made an hour. 

Also the Vive Pre is almost exactly what I wanted it to be.
