About Oculus Rift(5 point)? - Ahmad - 04-28-2014 08:50 PM
I just watched somebody played Oculus Rift(Pewdiepie) and i am amazed and immediately want to order the developer kit from the web.But i got some doubt in my mind.
It will be soo appreciated if you guys can help me
1.I'm not sure if my laptop can handle it,even though i watched video about some grandma played it with a laptop,here's my spec
Core i5 3230M 2,6 GHZ
Geforce 610m
4 GB Ram(3,11 GB usable)
2.I planned to wait for the standard version,but i heard Facebook bought the Rift company,i'm scared if
the standard version will be very expensive.What do you guys think??
Best answer will give you 5 points.Thank you.

I would wait a while until the standard version, if its too much money then you can always just get the developers kit. And yes, I think you're laptop could use it.

keep in mind that the resources VR needs are more than what conventional rendering requires. honestly I think you need to upgrade, only gaming machines can handle VR decently at this stage.
The facebook deal is likely to lower the cost. What's upsetting people is more the fact that facebook will try to exert control on the platform in some way instead.
