Are you VR ready /v/?
I guess
I want a combo of the Vive/OR though. Want the FOV and camera from the Vive with the controllers of the OR.
Guess I'll end up buying neither as much as I want them.
>>323274103
What ever has the better software support will get the beans from me. I had a triple Nvidia 3D Vision gaming set up a few years back, but the lack of native support was a fucking nightmare. Had to force the resolution with shitty FoV, etc.
Seems like the Vive with the whole being the official Steam hardware might be the go for me.
>>323274328
>What ever has the better software support will get the beans from me
I was thinking the same thing but all games should eventually be able to support both so it wont really matter.
Vive has a worse screendoor effect do to higher FOV but it has the nice camera on the front I really REALLY wanted with a VR headset. I want to be an early adopted. I'm an enthusiast. I just can't decide which shit smells the least.
>>323274482
Yeah the screendoor effect is fucking annoying too. That put me off getting the Rift DK1 and even the DK2. Literally made me queasy.
Hopefully both this issue will be fixed with both systems on release.

Cooling is pretty efficiency family. GPU/CPU will delta at 70/75C respectively. Breddy good since the GPU will go 1380/7500MHz and the CPU is at 4.5GHz both at 1.2v.
It's loud as fuck under full fan speed though.
>>323275314
yeah sure it does
you literally got zero airflow, stop making shit up
if you dont got at least an matx (but best is an atx) you are gonna get overheating issues
your memebox isnt gonna stay cool under heavy load

2011 socket.
>>323273759
Not in 8 years
>>323275721
nice dustfilters you got there
just stop baiting with your memebox no serious PC Gamer is gonna believe it or even consider it
>>323275724
Why is the 2011 socket best? What about s1151?
And what is difference between s2011 and s2011-3 ?
>>323275374
>but best is an atx
MOM I TOLD YOU I NEEDED A FULL TOWER!
>>323275374
stop being a fucking idiot.
>>323275892
2011-3 is the better version but it hardly matters.
1151 is fine. 2011 is just newer and more powerful.
>>323275907
full tower is the best for airflow and later on expansion but in most houses its just too big. Especially if you sometimes move it around
>>323275948
no u
>>323275838
>gamer
>serious
Keep shitposting family.
>>323275967
Thanks. I havent looked into the 2011 sockets yet but they are expensive as fuck. Cheapest ones are 300 for mobo alone, i think thats a bit expensive for me.
s1151 are 100-150 bucks which i also thought is pretty expensive but at least you got new generation i7 and ddr4 with that
>tfw my PC is no longer considered high-end
Probably gonna upgrade to a 980 or a 970 within 5 months or so, maybe the CPU as well
>>323273759
>locked i5
>gtx970
nope and neither are you.
>>323276045
Yes, 1151 are pretty common. 2011 is the future kind of stuff. Most of them only do DDR4.
>>323276054
I went from 560ti to 980ti just recently. I know that feel very well.
>>323276054
>Probably gonna upgrade to a 980 or a 970 within 5 months or so, maybe the CPU as well
Wow right when dx12 cards come out so you'll be left with a series nvidia drops like a hot potato just like kepler good job
>>323273759
why doesn't this include the price of the 970?
>>323275374
>can only see pack panel
>idle temps are fine
why are you so mad?
Ready but not willing yet.
>>323276142
900 series will support dx12 though.
>>323273759
You tell me anon, am I?
>>323275907
Or you could just get a mid tower.
>>323276081
>locked i5
>wasting money on K cpu that is not i7
>meme card
wtf man, it was bait ?
>>323276272
He's referring to the fact currently there are features of DX12 that maxwell does not support and is leaving out the fact Nvidia already stated this will all be resolved on a software level and has nothing to do with the physical hardware. 900 series is going to be fully capable of DX12. Doesn't mean it'll be as good as pascal obviously but there's not going to be an issue running it.
>>323276352
Name me more than 5 games that can use micro-threading which is literally the only feature i7 has over i5.
>>323273759
Nah, im not to be cucked like you
>>323276392
>280X
>bought for 150$

>>323276054
>tfw i've never had a high end pc
at least it was only $200
>>323276452
>the only feature i7 has over i5.
also has higher clock speed
just saying
>>323276452
Name me one reason you need to buy a K i5 or i3.
Meaby overclock is more used for AMD processors, but K on Intel, aside from i7, is just a waste of money.
>>323276452
we're talking about future VR gaming, not games already released, dingus. and it was more the fact that it was locked that i was commenting on. why not a 4690k?
>>323276323
Specs?
>>323275967
>2011 is just newer
2011 socket been out for years, retard
>>323276671
>Specs?
probably someone else's build on the 3dmark site
yeap
Will I be able to VR on this thing?
>>323276671
Score was at stock speeds, need to run a new benchmark some time and see muh gains.
>>323276517
I went from GTX 770 SLI -. R9 290X crossfire -> GTX 980 SLI
My brief time on team red convinced me of something. I'll never buy another AMD product again unless they get bought out by a company that isn't shit. $550 GPUs performing worse in every fucking instance at 5760x1080 and 4k than 770s which were like.. $370 I think when they were new? Not to mention DAT 95C IS NOMRAL FER DIS CARD M8! Had to slap blocks on them, another $200 before they finally started to slightly beat out the 770s.
Man... AMD is fine if you're running just 1080p or some simple single display setup, but for anything enthusiast level just stay the fuck away from them. Hope your purchase is serving you better than mine did.
>>323276660
>K
>i5
just why
Save you money, you can upgrade to i7k in two years starting from now.
You don't need nothing more than i3 for play every game nowdays. i5 and i7 are just overpowered shit.
>AMD cpu
not even once.
>>323276901
8gb ddr4? and probably depends on the which 200 series gpu you have.
>>323276214
>idle
>>323276947
Yeah, only got one strip of DDR4 memory. WIll get another one once I get my paycheck.
I have Radeon R9 270X. Should I upgrade it?
>>323276920
I'm just a cheap ass pc player, I have only one filthy monitor at 1080p.
With my 280X Dual-X, wich is the worst of the custom 280X, I can play near everything at 60+ fps.
>150$
This card was a fucking great deal for me.
>>323277019
Oh spaghetti, Sapphire r9 270X
>>323276946
if op is paying $300 for a 4590, he's making a mistake regardless of the K debate. and the 4690k is only a whopping $40 more ($200 vs $240) and has a higher stock speed.
>AMDcup
>not even once.
i agree even though i have an FX8320.
why do i have it? because the desktop was INCREDIBLY cheap and brand new.
>>323277019
>>323277131
The bare minimum for AMD is the R9 290...
>>323277071
Hey as long as it works for your setup that's all that matters. Curious to see how AMD will perform with VR given that mostly where I saw issues was things outside the typical 1080p/60~120hz. Hopefully it won't be a complete mess like EyeFinity.
>>323277019
i would say yes, but it may not be entirely necessary. with an FX8320 and PCS+ R9 380, 3DMark puts me just under the "Oculus Ready" score.
>>323276842
What site for the GPU? I'm looking to upgrade soon and the 390 seems perfect for me.
>>323277219
>>323277302
It's okay, I was thinking about upgrading anyway. What should I upgrade to,any Geforce card that's cheap atm?
>>323277219
No dude, is the 280X
>>323277470
I got my GTX 980 for $250 nearly last year. It should be cheaper now. It's above the VR requirements.
>>323277318
Jet if you're in the US
>>323277663
It's 550 where I'm at. Where did you get it?
>>323277549
That's below recommended specs; ie not playable.
>>323277736
Online, pre-loved.
Is it still a good idea to get a 980? I'm not sure how much more powerful it really is compared to the 970.
I've used AMD cards the past 7 years and want to switch for a bit.
>>323278078
980ti or bust.
>>323278146
Really? I mean I'm only going to be doing 1080p 60. I don't really card about 1440 or 4k
>>323273759
>8GB RAM
Get 16, seriously, a fuckload of shitty ports like Black Ops 3, Arkham Knight or AC Unity stutter like shit because they eat RAM like mad.
Drop the SSD and get the 16GB and a 2TB HDD instead.
>>323274865
>DDR4 with Haswell
>>323278307
Do it for the vram.
Should last you 4-6 years at 1080p 60fps.
>>323278078
It's nearly 25% faster is gaming performance but the biggest thing over the GTX 970 is the full 4GB of full speed memory. It won't crap out with higher graphices settings at higher resolutions like in the Rift or Vive.
>>323276054
>the GTX 680 has 2GB of VRAM
Jesus christ, talk about aging like milk.
>>323278353
I see what you're saying. I guess I'll just save up some more for now. Maybe by the time I have the money they'll release new shit.
>buying right on the recommended specs and not above
this is a big mistake, it's better to go at least 20% over the requirements gpu-wise, because VR is going to be intensive on the GPU
>i3 6100
>16GB RAM

Poorfag, but oh well, i'm doing quite fine.
>>323278350
you idiot it means no haswell
>>323278487
Pascal will be out in july or june or something this year. Just loook for 6gb of vram or more.
>>323278425
2GB was fine back then. But with 4K textures a shit ton of multi-sampling now it is like expired milk.
>>323278682
What case is that? So many corsairs look the same, I've got the 100R that looks like an mATX 200R
>>323278910
It's an oldie Fractal Design Mini, mATX. There should be at least two new versions of it, but I haven't kept up with any cases bigger than mITX.
>>323279140
Had me fooled, nice setup
