I have played the vive but it was on a 960m and was not a very good experience and for me at least the screen door effect was really bad (weird how some people see it and some don't) it was also really blurry and pixelated so should I wait for a 2nd one to come out with 4K displays to be noted i have a Gtx 1060 6gb and I would hope that you could lower the res in the 2nd one to perform better but with less SDE

i'm waiting for higher resolution as well and better graphics processing units before i blow a shit load of money into my VR room...you should do the same IMHO.

i played the vive as well and it did not cut it for me as well i had the impression of playing nintendo 64 VR...the technology is SUPER cool though and you kinda forget about it after a little while but still it could be a lot better i want higher resolutions and more games.

Yes, wait. An 8GB GTX 1080 or Titan XP can't even push VR at playable framerates at 1080p, let alone 4K.

When gen 3 comes around it'll be really good; just like Smartwatches... maybe. IDK, gen 2 Smartwatches still suck so.
