Hi everyone,
I was planning on waiting for the consumer version of the Oculus Rift to come out but ended up impulsively pre-ordering the DK2 haha. Now I need a PC that can run it and the last one i put together was over 10 years ago. Here is what I current have spec'd out after spending a lot of time lurking around the forums: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Dankul/saved/46WN
Do you have any critiques on the build? The current cost is about my budget but I wouldn't mind spending a little more or less. I currently have a single 1920x1200 monitor but may upgrade to a single 1440p a year down the line. I would also consider doing crossfire/SLI as a future upgrade path.
Lastly, one of my main hesitation is that I originally decided to build something now instead of during the DK2 release as I didn't expect any new releases of graphics cards within that time frame. However, it seems like the Z97 chipset, which I don't know much about, is going to be released soon. Should I consider waiting for that? I am usually very undecisive when it comes to these kind of purchases and any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
