experience.\u00a0 Developers can create living, breathing worlds that allow players to do just about anything they like, with details like swaying blades of grass and dynamic weather.\u00a0 While our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.originpc.com\/\"><span class=\"s2\"><b>custom computers<\/b><\/span><\/a> ensure players can crank up the settings to enjoy all of the details, there is always that layer of separation caused by the traditional mouse, keyboard, and monitor setup.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This is where virtual reality systems like the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive come in.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Oculus Rift and HTC Vive are perhaps the most well known of the upcoming virtual reality gaming peripherals.\u00a0 The head-mounted display connects to a PC to deliver one of the most groundbreaking gaming experiences, allowing players a degree of immersion never seen before where they can feel like they are actually in the game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">To deliver the performance necessary for such an experience, players must have a system that can handle the technology.\u00a0 The Oculus Rift for example requires at least 8GB of RAM, or more\u00a0 an Intel i5 processor as well as an NVIDIA GTX 970 or AMD 290 graphics card as a minimum.\u00a0 However, to ensure the smoothest performance, we strongly suggest a system with 16GB of RAM, an Intel i7 6700k processor, and an NVIDIA 980 Ti GPU or better.\u00a0 HTC has yet to reveal details on the Vive requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If you&#8217;re going to run graphically intensive games using VR technology, you&#8217;re definitely going to want a system that can not only handle the minimum requirements but can deliver the same robust performance at higher settings and our models are perfectly suited for the Oculus Rift.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">ORIGIN PC&#8217;s line of gaming and performance desktops and laptops are designed for tomorrow&#8217;s technology, including VR.\u00a0 Our custom computers come with blazing fast Intel processors, upgradeable RAM, and
