My desktop is over 5 years old now and is not at all VR ready. I had assumed that being this old I'd missed the boat on simply replacing the graphics card and that I would now need a whole new PC. I noticed however when looking online at components, that while graphics cards have improved drastically in 5 years, CPU clock speeds aren't that much more than they used to be.
Question: Would a new graphics card really be all that's needed to use an HTV Vive pro with my PC or have I missed something about advances in other components and I'll need a whole new rig?
Parts: Intel 3rd Generation Core i5-3570K CPU (3.4GHz and I've heard overclockable to well in excess of 4GHz)
