Please help with motherboard choice

DONOHUE07 · 20 Jan 2018 at 20:52

so, I’m now without a PC, and I want small form factor build for the living room, but I’m very restricted financially (thanks kids..!) I’ll be moving my r9 290 over from other PC, as I’m building this on budget I won’t be using new parts, I’ll be buying a 2nd hand i7 4770 or a i7 4790, my problem is as I want to build in a small case Silverstone Sugo or a Node 202, and i don’t think my existing inatech USB port and will fit along with my GPU (due to the back of the cases only showing 2 slots). So, is there any lga 1150 mini ITX motherboards that work with the Oculus Rifts sensors?

I realise this a very niche question but if anyone can point me in the right direction I would be very greatful

So, I don't know but good luck with your search.

I think any motherboard with the Intel Z87 USB controller will work with the Rift. Stay clear of motherboards with the Etron or Asmedia controllers.

I'm using a Rift with 3 sensors on Asus Z97 impact VII and don't need an extra USB controller

Dosnt look as though any cheap mini itx lga 1150 boards will work, going to buy a micro atx board and a slightly bigger case and use my inatech card instead, as long as it gets the seal of approval from the Mrs that is..
