I wonder if it feels more natural? Skimmed the video without sound. The motion seems a bit jerky. Not a FPS issue, but smoothness of the head tracking. I think that would drive me nuts.

Quoted from Deaconblooze:I was going to buy a rift as soon as it became available, but the new price put me off
Was going to buy one as well, until I saw the minimum specs. I built my PC 3 years ago with gaming/video editing in mind. I have 2 video cards set up in SLI, BUT they are a few numbers shy of the recommended minimum video card. So I can't justify pulling out my $650 worth of video cards, to buy a single one at around $500, plus the cost of the Rift itself.
Well, guess it'll be a while before I get a Rift, or any VR. Did the system check on my Current PC, and I failed three areas.
Graphics Card:
Have: NVidia GTX 570 x2
Need: NVidia GTX 970
Processor:
Have: i7-3930K @3.2GHz
Need: i5-4590 @??
USB: Just tells me that my USB 3.0 ports are incompatible with the Rift, but doesn't tell me why or what I need.
I do have 32GB of memory and running 64bit Win10. So I meet or exceed there!
So, I built my machine too powerful a year or two early. Will be a couple more years before I consider upgrading again.
Edit. Just looked up benchmarks vs the CPU to what I have and the one that recommended, and mine is faster than what they say I need.
