Well, it depends what you mean by "matches the Vive etc"
They are currently demoing wireless VR connected to a PC so its sounding like Gen2 PC headsets will be wireless, but they are also talking about increasing the resolution.
On the other hand a headset with the same resolution as the Vive has now will still need a pretty decent advance in GPU technology to be equal to what a PC can do now... I thin we'll have wireless PC headsets a long time before we have headsets with built in GPU's.

most immediate solution would be backpack laptops, with 14/16nm nodes, we should get high enough speced laptops with very little power draw for longer battery life, also allows you to take it outside to your garden or something for space.
wireless or fully integrated headsets, that would take few year, you have the Sulon Q for exemple, even if you ignore the performance, you still wonder about the heat, AMD seem to be targeting 35watt TDP, maybe weight, we will see, but i think tech is still not there yet for integrated headset.
but you have AMD working on this
