=============================
Comments:
So-so deal on a solid system for entry-level VR.
Pros:
- Solid system for entry-level VR that can easily be further upgraded if needed. Recommend OC RAM and maybe a graphics card if needed
- Costco warranty and return policy
- Good build history with ibuypower
- Membership not required.
Cons:
- Mystery motherboard. See specs above.
A caveat regarding the motherboard:
So there's
some news about some motherboard manufacturers messing with the baselines that may result in the CPU drawing too much power [tomshardware.com] and potentially causing damage. AMD has said they are investigating but they have other failsafes to protect the chips.
HWInfo has a tool and discussion about this. [hwinfo.com]
