oculus advice

a little advice pleeease.

i have been running ED with a oculus rift dk2

on this
amd fx 4100 quad core
8.00gb ram
amd radeon hd 6700 series
4862 mb of dedicated gaming graphics it says

there is no way my dk2 will work unless my settings are at minimum and then the picture is awful. it improves if i bump up the supersampling to 2.0 from 1.0 but the stuttering starts.
question is can i get away with just upgrading the gpu to something beasty (plus a bigger power supply if needed) or should i really be looking at starting to build a new system altogether.

any advice is much appreciated.

Hi there - moved this over to VR as you'll get more help here. :)

But first up, a HD 6700 is about 5 years old, and woefully inadequate to run a DK2.

Your processor, if I have my figures correct is a bit faster than mine, but I run a 7970 which copes.
If you are thinking about CV1 then you could wait before a full rebuild and just up the GPU.

Go shopping on amazon prime and have it built by monday I did that 2 weeks ago and could not be happier with the system I built. You can build an absolute beast for around 2K and have it on your doorstep in 2 days.

Get an I5 (or I7), 16 gb ram (8 will do it but is really low), a Maxwell card (970 or better) and you are good to go.
Optional is an SSD
