Yep, two of them should do it!

[hansangb]

LOL! But if it can drive 4X 4K at 120Hz...that's the ticket for VR! :) Only $4,000!

[NeilWillis]

Trouble is, it is porobably too big to fit in my case, and I'd never be able to persuade the missus it'd be a good investment!

[Kuky]

pffft... so get a full tower case, small price to pay compared to price of the VR headset, the video card, and the rest of the main PC components ;) Real "Problem" is VR is not 4K yet, nor do we have PC's that can run it at 4K in VR at good FPS :)

[BobFlex]

I don't think we even have cables that can support 4K VR at 90FPS yet lol

[adrianstealth]

Will it run crisis with shadows on medium maybe?

[SkateZilla]

Driving 4x 4k 120Hz displays and Rendering 4 Scenes At 4K 120Hz are 2 Different things...

 

I can plug in 6x 1440p Screens at 75Hz on my Lightnings, But no game will render on all 6 at 75Hz.

 

 

Also, Workstation / Pro Cards..... Not Designed for Gaming... At All... Rendering Video and CAD at 120FPS doesnt mean it will render DCS at 120FPS.

DCS is cpu limited. It's topped out at a 980ti for now. My 1080 gives me zero performance increase in DCS VR over my 980ti even with 1.5-2.0 PD set. The sim just won't use the extra gpu power.

[SkateZilla]

If you're gonna drop 10K on a Graphics Card,

 

Get the new AMD SSG :-), Put DCS Directly on the Solid State Drives on the Graphics Card, Linked Directly to the GPU, Bypassing Latency and Bottlenecks of M.2 and System Chipsets.

 

:pilotfly:

The 3 smiley face was supposed to denote that it's more of a wishful thinking.

 

But the good news is that Moore's law will catch up even for video standards and in the next 3 years, we will have glorious VR!

 

But man... that SSG with built in SSD is a BEAST!!
