Koriel Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 Hi, Just saw the rift being on sale. Since my major new PC is being postponed indefinitely, i was thinking that perhaps a GFX card upgrade to my current setup might land me into VR territory. I have a 5 yr old PC. i7 3770 @3.40Ghz 16GB DDR3 @800Mhz GTX 680 Would replacing the 680 with say a 1060 or 1070 get me into the minimum specs for VR?
Boris Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 https://support.oculus.com/help/oculus/1357437467617798/ A 1070 might get you passable performance in DCS, though your CPU and ram might pose a bottleneck. Keep in mind that even people with a 1080ti are having VR performance issues.
