Ideal hardware for Unity + Oculus?
Are there any graphics boards / configurations that work "best" when using Unity as development environment and targeting DK2 (or whatever better dev kit might become available until late summer 2015)...
I've gone through the same quest for my home and business PC's.
December: I started using a 2013 iMac with 32gb ram and noticed right away it wasn't brilliant.
Jan: Decided to get a PC built and put in a 970 and it's great
Feb: Needed to get another kit my developer, so I went with a 980 and could immediately tell it was finally where it needs to be. Even just the config demo scene worked much nicer. Having the two side by side, I would say that the 980 is definitely the way to go.
March 30th: I now needed an addition kit for customer projects. So I went all out and got a monster PC with a Titan X.
I would say, there is no doubt in my mind that any commercial business should use a Titan. Now don't get me wrong, you will be hard pressed to tell the difference between a 980 and a Titan when you play demo's. But I'm building complex scenes in Unity and UE4 and I can tell you, that Titan is out of this world. - pretty damn expensive tho :-(
