With Virtual Reality upon us, I've been looking to upgrade my PC to be able to run VR. I built my computer a few years ago and for the most part, it still runs pretty well even with new games. Does it make more sense to sell my current build and build a whole new computer or just upgrade my current build?

My current build is:

CASE: NZXT Source 530 w/ USB 3.0, 10-port fan hub, Side-Panel Window
CPU: Intel(R) Core™ i7-4820K Quad-Core 3.70 GHz 10MB Intel Smart Cache LGA2011 (All Venom OC Certified)
FAN: Corsair Hydro Series H60 High-Performance Liquid Cooling System 120MM Radiator & Fan (Single Standard 120MM Fan)
HDD: 2TB (2TBx1) SATA-III 6.0Gb/s 64MB Cache 7200RPM HDD (Single Drive)
MEMORY: 16GB (4GBx4) DDR3/1866MHz Quad Channel Memory (Corsair Vengeance)
MOTHERBOARD: GIGABYTE X79-UP4 ATX w/ Ultra Durable 5, GblAN, 4 GEn3 PCIe x16, 2 PCIe x1, 1 PCI
POWERSUPPLY: 800 Watts - Standard 80 Plus Certified Power Supply - SLI/CrossFireX Ready
VIDEO: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 3GB GDDR5 PCIe 3.0 x16 Video Card (Major Brand Powered by NVIDIA)

Any input you can give is greatly appreciated!!

Don't sell it, just get a GTX 1080 and you'll be fine.
If you sell it, you'll need to invest around double the selling point of this build to get a new build.
The only bad thing is the power supply, I suggest you get something of quality, EVGA G2 is one of the best.
