Pre Built VR Ultra Gaming System

femmamer · 20 Jan 2018 at 16:41

Hi

I hope someone can help me. I can't build my own system because I don't have the physical strength so it will need to either be a pre built system or a custom built that OC builds for me. I'd like to be able to play VR games and games on ultra settings. The type of games I play are usually rpgs, so I'm looking to be able to play the new Far Cry game and games like that. I can't think of other examples to give.

I was looking at the GERMANIUM pre built that someone listed but I think that doesn't have front USB 3.0 ports? Are those needed for VR? I am not very good at this, sorry! I'm not too keen on cases with glass on them either. I'm so glad to have found this forum and OC website, I was struggling with where to look for help for a very long time.

Thank you

The case has 2 front usb 3 ports look threw the pics and its also in the description for the case but if you dont want that case you could always contact Overclockers about an alternative case.

The GERMANIUM system should handle vr very well.

Prices are rising fast so act quick . Gtx 1070 should do you well for VR, anything higher the better. Will also run 1080p 120hz or 1440p 60hz nicely. .
Again if you got the dollar for anything higher then great

Thank you, that's so helpful. I think I need extra storage so I'll give them a call for advice over that and anything else. I'll need a monitor too.

I ordered a Germanium last friday just waiting for delivery. You can pick many different case options listed and even ones that aren’t (I went for Phanteks Pro M Glass as cheaper and better airflow). Front usb and hdmi is not a necessity for VR but if it makes life easier then call OCUK and ask them to recommend a suitable case.

Fyi if you choose an asus motherboard there is a cashback deal running. By default the Germanium comes with the Strix Z370-F which is £45 cashback.
