Actually, Oculus Headset Will Cost More Than $600

Oculus headset got its first attention at their Kickstarter campaign in 2012. The headset reached its goal less than 24 hours. Total the campaign raised 2,4 million dollars. They got so popular after Kickstarter. Facebook saw the opportunity and bought the company in March 2014. Facebook paid 2 billion dollars for the enterprise.

– 
Now Oculus VR announced that they will release the version of the headset with a price tag $600. After this announcement internet went crazy about the price. People thought the price was so high. But Oculus headset will cost more than $600 for most of us. The company announced the technical requirements for running the headset properly. And it requires a powerful PC that can’t be cheap. Also, Oculus VR will not support Apple’s OS or Linux operating system. These users need a new PC if you want to use Oculus’ headset.
These are what you need to use Oculus VR headset.
– Nvidia GTX 970 / AMD 290 or greater
– Intel i5-4590 or greater
– 8GB+ RAM
– Compatible HDMI 1.3 video output
– 2x USB 3.0 ports
– Windows 7 SP1 or newer
Just that graphic cards start with $250, so you will need a PC which will cost more than $700. But Oculus’ headset will not be the only option. Sony’s and HTC’s headset will be on sale soon. Highly possible these two will need the same specifications that Oculus needs.
