Min spec gpu and recommended

[barbel]

Just about to put a rig together what would you recommend as min spec for gpu and the recommended spec

I was thinking min ad a 3060 and recommended as a 3070ti

I was thinking of getting a 3060ti as they are easier to come by but will it be enough
Many thanks

i wouldn't get a new GPU , until you have changed your CPU and that first, otherwise you will bottleneck that CPU

I'm not talking VR now, but i had an i5 6600K and put a 5700 XT GPU in, and it bottlenecked it, some games would be fine, others would just be worse than before.

You misunderstood my post the gpu is for a new rig I am building not for the one in my specs

sorry, but you did not mention what your new CPU was , so assumed it was in sig

CPU was either

Or

Is this purely for gaming?

yes some pc but mostly vr gaming

op, what vr headset u choose can have some effect i.e. choose a rift and you'll get away with a lesser spec pc. but a G2 will need more a grunt behind it etc.

I have a quest 2 at mo but am lookund at the new valve index when it comes out

 

[barbel]

same here

So do you play pc vr games with your 5700 card

 

[barbel]

Yes they are my best bet but they wouldn't be up to the same spec

PS as someone mentioned earlier, pre-built PCs are your best bet. However there is 30X0FE thread over in the Graphics sub forum with details of 'drops' where a retailer or nVidia release extremely limited stock at RRP - usually gone in seconds to minutes.

30xofe?
