i use a titan xp
And half the cost too
I prefered the Oculus S for not having to deal with all the fucking camera sensors
waiting for that intel 10nm
I had first gen titan (900 series) and the thing broke last week, so I Decided to upgrade now
I just went up from a 1060 3GB to a 1660 to get up to snuff for VR
wouldnt a used 1070 be smarter
Nice its the sweet spot for VR
I definitely was hugely attracted to the inside-out headtracking
a 1070 is like twice the perf compared to 160
I'm on a 2070
Im not upgrading the motherboard though, its not expensive, I just cba lul
Yeah I couldn't justify the cost to go any higher since by all accounts (and now having had it for 2 weeks) the 1660 is great for 90% of VR applications
I'll upgrade it when I get a ryzen CPU lol
God, upgrading bones is my nightmare
dont buy ryzen
intel is better for gaming at all price points
Ryzen is cheap as fuck
I thought I was SOL cuz the Rift S doesn't work with ASmedia USB 3.0 ports, and of course I have an ASmedia mainboard
My Ryzen does me good no point in upgrading
that single core performance on ryzen is laughable
Yeah I had that issue at first I had to use my case USBs
Ended up just buying a PCI USB 3.1 card for like $30 at my local Fry's
SSee my motherboard is like first gen x99, but its still good for now 🤔
I want to get a new one eventually for the 2 m.2 slots for SSD sticks tbh
I'm lucky enough to work in a place where I'm 3rd in the pecking order for who gets the old hardware, and the two people above me are gen x'ers who don't want to work on hardware
The S is great because you can set it to camera mode and see your surroundings with the headset on
So I ended up lucking into a seriously nice former-server rig that I just had to drop new storage and a GPU into
Nice always good to get tech handmedowns
replaced the PSU too cuz it was cheap and dying but I'm still running an FX 8350 8 core @ 4.3
And 32GB of RAM cuz server ^_^
Once the ram turns up tomorrow <:Snakegasm:533665229280903196>
Also dude yes, passthrough is awesome
32GB homies ❤
FX 8350 😄 they still exist? haha
lol right? I have some issues every now and then but she still runs like a fucking champ
I know it's gonna be my bottleneck in the next couple years
Yeah should be alright for another year or so. Ryzen is cheap as fuck though so upgrading wont be too much hassle for you
FC5 had an update early this year that makes my entire system tank to black, not even BSOD. Just dumps power entirely and hard shutdown.
😂 I remember those day s
