Hello, The OculusCompatCheck returns that : - My nvidia quadro k4000 - my intel core i7 3820 - the hardware that powers the usb ports are not good enough for the oculus.
So my question is : Will it still work but with reduced performances ? I could live with that and wait the right time to buy a new workstation. Or the oculus will simply not work on the hardware ? Then I will have no other choice than buying a new PC.
Thanks for you input ! My "oculus developper version" worked though on the quadro k4000 ... and the quadro k6000 is in the recommended list.
Source? I ask because I have a M6000 and they told me they don't support quadro at all. I'm going to be even more ticked off if they made me buy a pc just for VR and my workstation would do just fine. Grrrr...
you can find the GPU list here : https://support.oculus.com/1639441692997293 The NVIDIA M6000 is in the list !
Thanks for that but now I'm pissed beyond belief. I went back and forth with them about it and they finally just said that they don't support quadro. At all. I'm seriously thinking of cancelling my preorder. Much thinking to do.
The GTX 970 is the minimum anyone should use. I went with the 980 so that I can relax for at least 2-3 years (hopefully) before having to think of upgrading. Sorry to hear about your frustrations but if you're at least Adept or stronger in the area of hardware/software then you should know how this song n dance ends, na' mean?
I once spent $1,000 for SLI (not counting the $$$ for the other components to shove inside my Coolmaster) yet now I'm staring at it in disbelief over how both the Vive and Rift poop on it.

I've just never experienced a hardware company not knowing what was compatible after launching a product and then just changing their mind so quick. I could understand if it was six months or more but this was so quick. I feel like anyone who bought a ps4 just past the point of being able to return it then finding out ps4.5 is coming out soon. Luckily I haven't paid for rift yet so I still have the decision of whether or not I want it but cannot return the 980s I bought just for a vr computer. Maybe I'll sell them and recoup some of that and say bye to rift. At least until they get on the ball with most stuff.
