Will the HTC Vive or Oculus Rift take the VR headset crown? The jury is still out on that one, but it’s guaranteed that you’ll need a meaty gaming rig to do either of them justice. And powerful hardware doesn’t come cheap.
Of course, one option to save some cash is to build a VR-ready gaming PC yourself, which can be done for under £800 (around $1,160 or AUS$1,680) with some savvy component selections. Another is to bite the bullet and empty your wallet on a pre-built machine such as the Overclockers Titan Virtual Force VR Gaming PC.
At £1,329 (around $1,820 or AUS$2,535), this VR-ready vessel from the Stoke, UK-based PC builder isn’t cheap in comparison; however, its components have been hand-picked to deliver the sort of VR experience that you’ve probably dreamt about in your sleep. And yes: that includes emptying a round of staples into a mug before lobbing it across a virtual office on Job Simulator.
The Virtual Force was used to power the public HTC Vive demo at Overclocker’s HQ back in March, such is the company’s confidence in its abilities.
