Upgrade to VR - Advice please

[WhiteOakRacing]

Thinking about upgrading to VR setup.

Presently I have a triple screen setup with the following specs.

Windows 10 Home 64-bit
Intel Core i7 5820K @ 3.30GHz
RAM - 16.0GB Dual-Channel
Motherboard - MSI X99S GAMING 7
Graphics - 4095MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN X
Controller - Fanatec CSR

2 questions
What VR system is recommended for ACC?
Will my system handle VR? If not, what upgrades will be necessary?

1 more (stupid?) question
While using VR, how does one interact with the buttons on the wheel - Fanatec CSR. Just by feel or can the be seen somehow?

Thanks in advance for the help,

John

I have Oculus and it works great on all VR sims and I assume Vive does as well, so take your pick i guess.
Hard to say how VR will run on any system yet, have to wait and see.
I use Voice Attack for sim racing, you can assign any wheel button or keybind to voice commands, works great.
I also use the buttons on my wheel, becomes second nature after a while.

Despite what you may have heard or read VR has not been confirmed. The situation is that they will see if it can be implemented later in development. Yes Unreal 4 engine supports VR but that does not mean every game will run at acceptable frame rates.

VR is in the roadmap as a feature for Release 2 on October 10th

I would hold for longer, Gen 2 is around the corner. And if your back is super itchy, get Samsung Odyssey, same resolution as Vive Pro at a fraction of the price. Works great with OpenVR (Steam), can't be happier with mine.

Well, that could still be a year from now.
