CheeseMan42 Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 The price of the upcoming Vive from HTC and Valve was just announced within the past few days, and the SteamVR Performance Test app will help determine if your system meets the hardware requirements. The minimum recommend specs are somewhat steep and now would be a good time for users that have been putting off new components to upgrade. Users that want to enjoy the VR experience should have "at least a 5th gen Intel Core i7 or 6th gen Core i5, 8 GB of RAM, and a more or less recent NVIDIA (or AMD) GPU." The app runs a two minute sequence from the Valve Aperture Robot Repair VR demo and tests if the content can run "smoothly" at 90 fps. In the event of a failed test, the app will tell you where the bottleneck is, potentially cutting down on the amount of components to upgrade.
