A bold prediction.
Yes, it requires a fairly good gaming PC.
I would hold out on another amazon deal if you can. The $599 deal a week or so ago on amazon was better. It included a Vive Deluxe Audio Strap and $100 gift card.

Yes. It has to be a newer computer too. You need a good graphics card. Steam has a VR system check to see if your computer can run VR ( Vive requirements are slightly higher than the Rift ) and tells you what you need if you cant.

Oh wow.. Yeah that's much better. I'm sure these will go down in cost the longer they have been out.

got my oculus rift for 349.00 no tax, 2 day shipping newegg sale about a week ago.

This thing rocks. I cant see using vive just yet at this cost unless i have a room that is 12x12 ft
Just not worth it

Oculus does everything vive does for alot less
I'm debating rift or vive. But I'm leaning towards vive bc I hear it's easier to setup, and it's more friendly with pc components. Plus, you have to use the C drive on rift, can't use a dynamic drive. But I hear the user experience is pretty much the same
