I want to play Skyrim with my HTC Vive, but I’m not sure if my computer can run it. My graphics card is an AMD R9 380 (NVidia equivalent is 860). I would hate to buy VorpX and find the only game I want to play with VorpX has performance issues so I can’t. Is there any way for me to know if playing Skyrim in VR is feasible for my hardware before buying VorpX?
You could probably play Sky unmodded at stock VorpX resolution/settings pretty well. Skyrim takes a LOT of power to run well with high rez and the eye candy up. Especially in geometry mode.
Fast ram and an SSD will help greatly.
Overclock as best you can on CPU and GPU
Be sure you are well cooled and not thermal throttling.
