VR capable computers are quite cheap. Cheaper than a low spec apple macbook pro running m1. For 2-3k you can get a beast of a machine running everything on real high settings.
Considring a brand new top of the line Nvidia GPU will currently cost you almost 2k, your prices feel a little ~4-5 years ago.
i don't think you need a 4090 for this. and even if you did get one, its 1600$. another 1000$ for good CPU and ram, etc. and you're well under 3k.
Right. You only need a card that's more powerful than the GTX 1060 for VR though, so the actual price-of-admission is more in the $250-400 price range.
The original comment wanted to try a demo like this. A RTX 3080 only runs it at 50 fps. A 1060 isn't good enough.
The parent I'm responding to was interpreting "VR capable" as "top of the line" which is demonstrably false. You probably can't even get this scene in the first place, so it's kinda a moot point.
In my experience you can almost always do much better buying a full computer on a good sale than buying components and building it yourself.
