How extensive are you going with VR, Oculus, HTC Vive, HTC Vive Pro?

Just asking as something like the Vive Pro will require more horsepower.

A 1080p 144hz

then a gtx 1080 will be enough, no need to drop all the way to a 1070.

Alright thanks

One last thing, which is worth going with a wired or wireless mouse

and a XXL mousepad or the logitech wireless charging mouse pad

i'd get a wired mouse since you likely won't be seperated that far apart from the PC anyways, and you don't have to worry about the battery running out halfway while gaming.

Alright, I only ask cause someone told me that If I got a Logitech mouse and used the new mouse pad they have, it would be the same cause the battery would never die
