The HDD isn't what the price that it says. I got it new at Microcenter for $60 and the monitor is a buffer monitor until I can get a better monitor. I also do have an Oculus Rift and I do use this with it. This is used for heavy content creation, blender, and lots of gaming while streaming.

I think the only things I would really change are to get a mobo with better VRMs and choose a cheaper wifi adapter. Everything else looks pretty solid.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.
