Meta Quest PC VR Budget Build

by Austin M Posted on: 11/10/2023

Build Description

The purpose of this build is to optimize performance for VR gaming such as having excess VRAM for Oculus Link and Virtual Desktop Streaming for wireless PC VR gaming. I have intentionally cheaped out on all other components, so upgrade each component as best fits your needs. You can build an amazing VR gaming PC for under $1K, but you have to make sacrifices along the way.

Favorite Feature

The excess VRAM helps tremendously with performance of PC VR to Quest Streaming to give you the best wireless PC VR experience without shelling out for an RTX 4090 state of the art build.
