Syber's "Steam Machine X" is the only one which meets (or rather, exceeds) the Oculus Rift recommended specs. The critical component is the GPU, and Oculus recommends a GTX 970. This one has a 980.
At $1419 it's quite fairly priced for the components it includes (just check logicalincrements.com), but I wouldn't really call that cheap.
- mkozlows 11y agoThe Syber machines are configurable, though, so you can grab the midrange one and upgrade it to a 970 for a few hundred dollars.
- cwyers 11y agoThey look like they only take half-height cards - apparently they do sell half-height 970s but you'll have a better selection of cards with a larger case.
- eeho 11y agoyeah that's pretty pricy. I didn't look very closely at the prices. The low end ones are basically laptops! I still wish there was a generic off-the-shelf computer that everyone agreed was best for VR. I'm not a gamer and don't have the time or interest to build something just for Oculus. I'd be willing to pay a little bit extra to have the comfort of knowing other people will be troubleshooting the same problems I'm having on the same hardware.
