Hi there i wanted to ask about my pc. I ordered VR (VIVE) As far as i know only bad thing is my video card. But meybe you guys could tell me how will it run? Here are my pc specs.
Intel Core i7-6700HQ CPU 2.60 GHz
8GB RAM
64Bit
Video card Nvidia GEFORCE GTX 950m
Windows 10

Minimum system requirements for the Vive say a GTX 970 or higher. Since the mobile GPUs are almost always a bit lower in performance than the desktop versions, I'm afraid you're probably going to be somewhat underpowered to run it. I guess since you've already ordered it all you can do is try, but I think you're going to find that you'll need higher end graphics or else it's going to be rather unpleasant.

GPU is soldered on this model and is not upgradeable. Sorry. Even though it DOES have discreet graphics in addition to the HD integrated graphics, it is NOT upgradeable.
