Mixed Reality Headset + 1050ti?

afasadfaafaadfafa · Aug 13, 2018

I have a 1050ti and i was wondering if it would be enough for the HP Mixed reality headset, from what i have been seeing that one has 1440p screens unlike others having 1080p mostly, would the 1050ti Windforce oc with a overclock run that res in vr decent?

You can read through both these links:

For what it's worth, I think you should be good to go!

1440(x2)x1440 and 90Hz....

Theoretically, it could do it. But I would not imagine it to be a very enjoyable experience overall - just depends on the specifics of an app/game and it's own requirements IMO

Barty1884 :

the thing is the hp one is 160 dollars the others are wayyy more (for me we are dirt broke lol)

It's not the specific headset I'd have the issue with, it's the hardware you're proposing running it with.

It'll work, and you exceed the minimum specs - I just wouldn't be confident of an enjoyable experience in every available task/app/game

Not my place, but if you are in fact "dirt broke", perhaps now is not the time to be investing in VR/MR?

Barty1884 :

i ran a bunch of vr test and i have overclocked my gpu, i get about 120-130 fps in vr test on steam etc

There's a lot of factors at play.

IIRC, for VR, you want double the refresh rate (as there's dual displays).... So I would expect you'd want a result of ~180FPS in any VR Test at 1440p...

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
RECOMMENDED:
OS: Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8.1, or Windows 10
Processor: Intel® i5-4590 / AMD FX 8350 equivalent or greater
Memory: 4 GB RAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 970 / AMD Radeon™ R9 290 equivalent or greater

A 1050TI falls a ways short of a 970, but that's only "recommended", not "minimum".

By all means, go for it. Please post back with your experiences.
To me, it seems a little short on horsepower, but I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

Good luck.

i know im late but, I got the headset and honestly it runs fine with a 1050ti, I even live stream some games lol, if you can get this card and headset for cheapp i would reccommend them for a cheap vr pc, I got a i5 7500 1050ti and 8gb ram and run Beatsaber, Hotdogs horseshoes and handgrenades, rec room all at 90 fps lol not that bad
