#1 you might want to fix that typo that says 880p to 8800p.

#2 r7 GPU with a 2k screen? That seems pretty weak for that high res... You would only be able to watch videos on that lol any game except stuff like TF2 and CSGO would run like a potato on that.

They didn't specify what GPU exactly though, which makes me curious if it is a Polaris unit.... because if it is, they could cram that thing they demoed against the 950 in there and a 950 could theoretically do some intensive VR.

I haven't watched the video because I'm at work, but an R7 chip would surely drive a VR movie (porn) without too much trouble. To Game, I would expect you'd still have to plug into your PCMR machine. 

 

Basically the internal computer would be to assist and play back media content.

The cool thing is how this can mix VR and AR.  Its not powerful for VR itslef but a mixture of both might be even crazier.  like this demo

Cant remember how to embed the vid if anyone can quote me and embed it in the quote that would be nice sorry!
